Christmas

Well its coming :-) We are so excited!!

What are you giving, what are you getting, what do you want, what do they want....???????????

Lets be materialistic and discuss gifts :-)


I was at the meuseum (fixing an ATM) and I saw a statue of ISIS for sale. Mrs Flip's online sign on is -ISIS this or ISIS that -so I bought it. I'll sneak it on top of her computer desk with a bow. Cheap little $10 thing but she'l like it. Then I am walking around the house making a list (and checking it twice) of a few little projects she has wanted done. (curtian rod fixed ect ect ect) and I am making a coupon book for her. 25 coupons (one for every other week) But that is about it. With the baby (greatest gift ever) we're kinda short so we are just giving little things and are going to spend the day together.

Neices and nephews are getting cowboy stuff, money, Hanna Montana, and AC/DC stuff depending on their age and interests.

Getting my parents an under the Kitchen counter radio thingy. And all the grandkids are getting them matching towles. (Littlest is giving washclothes, next one up hand towels ect ect) Things they need after the tornado.

I asked for a drop pitman arm, and a radius arm drop bracket - for the truck... I won't get them Christmas day, but I was promised them before the Arkansas trip in April. :-) This week I am getting a wheel cylinder, part of a belated birthday gift.

Guess'n it pends if'n yall been naughty or nice. Guess some folks could be git'n a bit more if'n they were a bit "naughty". I just gave Margaret a bunch of money for Mom and neices and nefews. She's been out shoppin. I have no idea what to get her she doesn't ever make a list or ask for anything. The boys have a 100% brand new Kazoo wraped in a billion lawers of duck tape n paper in a large box. I been talk'n ta Santa and pretty sure he will have some underware for them.

Been think'n out gettin Margaret a new mop that is advertised on TV.

I want a I-Robot Vacuum with a remote or a 12 ga pump shotgun.

Jeff R. got his trip to Alaska in May and then he is only getting a few movies and a box of chocolate covered cherries. Thats what he wanted. Jackie and Jeff K. are getting a $20 gift card to safeway. Emery is getting lots of stuff. Neices and Nephews odd and end stuff. Thats it.

Demand the pump shotgun. It will hold it's value longer than the fancy smancy I-JK whatever vacuum and it will make you more impressive when ultimate authority is needed.

Just my 2 cents.

The young 'un's coming out pretty good this year. Martha and I are maybe not getting so much. I've got two weeks off work so we're going to drive down to her parents' place again....last time we drove over Xmas we slid into ditches twice and spent a short night sleeping in the car at an I-20 rest area. Hopefully this year goes a little better.

Most of my shopping's been for our oldest nephews in Chihuahua....one's in college, one's in high school, so we got them a printer and some (more) computer stuff so they can do homework.

The pump shotgun is a want more than a need. I have plenty of authority around here. I have plenty of guns but my favorite is my 9mm. So I want the pump so I can have multi shots.

Merry Christmas Michelle, you rock.

Michelle, I have a magazine extender that I can put on the old 870 that gives total of 11 shots if you start with one in the chamber. That should be enough to scare the varmints away.

Mossberg makes some decent pumps that aren't too expensive too.

I'm not giving anybody anything because a) I'm broke b) Can't find a job c) In college. I just want to celebrate Jesus' birth, enjoy time spent with my family, and stuff myself with ham n' stuff!
