    yeppers ...

    my christmas present to myself was/is a trip to montana to spend a couple of weeks with my sister and brother-in-law .
    so far , i have been doing half the cooking !

    as far as toughbook stuff under the tree goes ... i am the only one in my family that is *hip* on comps .
    sometimes it feels like i am surrounded by luddites !
    :biglaugh:

    anybody else have plans or something they want to do ?

    Staying home. Zero plans other than maybe replace the backup cam on my truck. Enjoying the 60 degree weather in western PA in Dec.
    Looking forward to peacefulness. I really cant deal with the family at the moment.I already shipped out the gifts to those I care about.

    yeah ...
    many years ago my sister worked with a english gal that had been transplanted to the US .
    it was the first christmas season that they had been working together ...
    i asked my sister to see if the gal had a recipe for "spotted dick" ...
    my sister looked at me funny and then turned bright red .
    i explained to her that it was a type of english pudding .
    it still took her a few minutes to reover her composure .
    (did i mention my sister was a bit prudish ?)

    that asides ...
    merry christmas to all .
    (maybe the title of this thread could include "/merry christmas" so as to not have to start a new topic ?)

    Merry Christmas it is :D . With 3 daughters , 1 step son , 1 step daughter and now 9 grandkids Christmas is always a big deal in my family. What's funny is I am sitting on my front deck drinking my morning coffee and no snow and it's almost 60 degrees out... :vbthumbsup: we don't get this kind of weather in Canada.

    Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!
