        Love this thread!

        While I hope that being in the hospital Christmas morning doesn’t become a tradition, I expect spoiling the baby we were finally about to take home after 6 days for her birthday and then Christmas will become the core of our seasonal routine. Brandi is already planning a big 1st Birthday party themed “my favorite things” (which includes things like berries, grilled cheese sandwiches, and Cheerios).

        Think it, be it.

          For various reasons the room on the other side of those doors is housing a shit load of surplus to requirements furniture, the doors cant even be opened at the moment …. 🙂 🙂

              I don't have any surplus fishing equipment.  I have a lot, but none surplus (at least, in my mind)…. 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

                I got busted one time…I had been out and found a sale (not a very good one), but...purchased two rods and reels for doing deep lake fishing.  Put them in the garage and kinda forgot about it.  One day Laura was looking for something in the garage and stumbled across them.  Got into a little trouble, but not too bad...so I guess not really surplus, but stock that I haven't used yet.  🙂

                  That's not surplus, it's forward planning…...I have a lot of tackle ready for the time I try something I've not got round to trying yet..... 🙂

                      concerning relatives…Every few years it would seem like we were celebrating Festivus and the "Airing of Grievances" instead of Christmas.

                      I got a lotta problems with you people…

                      Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                      Well, I have others.

                        @steelworker I may have exaggerated a little, and it’s not that bad…

                        Have you watched National Lampoon’s Christmas with Chevy Chase?  I feel like Clark most of the time during the holidays.  Trying to make everyone happy, things not quite working out how I thought it would, but at the end of it all it really wasn’t that bad.

                        …and thankfully the police don’t show up at the end and the sewer doesn’t explode.  🙂

                          Here are the two Krampus ornaments and tree topper.

                          And here are a few other fun ones

                            Very cool!  I had never heard the story of Krampus until 10 years ago.  Is it something you grew up with?

                                  @Oaktavia I really like the flying octopus thing. I might be missing a cultural reference, but I wonder if the characters on the 666 and 888 SBG patches got together when nobody was looking  😃

                                        @Oaktavia i am legitimately jealous of your Satanic/Ravens tree.  I have plenty of Ravens ornaments but I’m a believer that ornaments should be gifts from others and no matter how many hints I put out no one will give me any dark arts Xmas fare.  You might be the only one who gets me and our Baltimore bromance was never meant to be.  😞
