Merry Christmas, everybody!
It's that time of year when our heads are filled with mixed emotions. We love to see the relatives bringing tons of gifts through the door. That's a good thing. The kiddies will be ecstatic for a few minutes, and occupied for a few minutes longer. It's great to see Uncle Harry...it's been a year. On the other hand that drum for the four year old, is getting old fast. Uncle Harry is half loaded again. How many times do you really need to see his belly-button sing the same filthy song it was singing last year?
It's okay, though. No real harm is done, and they'll all be gone in a day or so. The thing to keep your eye on, just may be that they cared enough to come and spend some time with you. That six hour drive from DC, or Richmond, was way above what they could have done. In a few more days junior will have trashed the drum, and peace and quiet will again settle over the homestead. Uncle Harry will have taken Aunt Judy back home, and you'll be looking forward to next year.
So, deck the halls, don your gay apparel, roast up a turkey stuffed with giblets and bread crumbs, and fire up the electric fireplace. Celebrate the love and companionship of those close to your hearts, and be of good cheer. It's only once a year, and if it wasn't happening, you'd be one depressed, unhappy camper.
Keep the good thought. Have a wonderful Christmas Time, and an Amazing New Year!
