Merry Christmas to all, and best wishes for 2019!

That's crackin' me up because my dad made me do the same kind of thing after he bought our first tape recorder, plus having to tell it all about Christmas. It brought much hilarity to family gatherings (and embarrassment to me) a couple of decades later. I'm still not sure if I'm sad or happy that the tape disappeared somewhere along the way.  :laugh:

Merry Christmas to all.  All the family was here this morning for a big breakfast and gifts.  Then they all trickled off to various and sundry other family members.  Very peaceful now with the fireplace and a good book.  Oh and some homemade chocolates and maybe some sippin' rum in a little while.  Today is Swmbo's birthday too.

I still have the vinyl pressing of that but dubbed it to Digital MP3 some years back. This is the first time I made it public. Only a very small handful had ever heard it until today.
VERY glad I have it and can hear my dad's loving voice... :old:

Happy birthday to your wife!

I'm still waiting for that peaceful fire, book, liquor time. It's still a few hours off for me yet. I'm currently eating various flavors of Play-doh ice cream.  :laugh:

Well, quiet time has arrived, but I have to skip the roaring fire. All the guests wanted the fire going in the woodstove all day for that Christmas feel, so now the house is like 78deg.  :laugh:

I'll probably open a window, dim the lights, and start a little fire with kindling just before bedtime so I can sit and contemplate for awhile and sip my Christmas Grand Marnier. :)

Ben, Swmbo went off to bed a half hour ago.  She said thanks for the birthday greeting.  She was up at 5:30 AM EST to fix the breakfast for our clan.  I've got another two fat fingers of Bourbon to sip on and cruise the 'net for a little while.  Glad you're having a quiet time now.  Warm regards from Michigan.

Had great conversations with two sons and DIL.  Also got a phone message from a former Boss lady.

Idiot next door hollered at me again for running kitchen water too long as I hand-washed a couple of things.  Marred day a little, but I fell back on the old "Don't let the pinheads get you down" saying.

Warm feelings reading about youse guys winding down after a full day.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night.
