What I got for Xmas

Influenza a and tamiflu. My 3 month old got tamiflu as a precaution. My oldest son has an ear infection and my daughter has a cough. Luckily my wife is ok.

Just life with kids i guess.

Merry Xmas

and I though my unpaid day off was bad....

I was scheduled to work 24 hours on Christmas, but I took two vacation days (12 hours each) to spend it with the family.

So far just bored. Thankfully Dominos finally opened so I can pee.

I got a Weber carb!!!!! And there's a header sized box that hasn't been opened yet...

To sleep in.

This year, I got a race jack for the Miata and a Porsche I can actually afford to keep, maintain and insure.

This one:

Merry Christmas all! OP - Hope you get better and the plague spreads no further.

Watch kids open presents. Made a good simple eggs toast and sausage breakfast.

About to put the roast in the oven for the family dinner.

Watching Mecum auction thinking about a second cup of coffee with some eggnog

I got the flu too. Tamiflu has a high co-pay with my insurance. SWMBO is going to the office now to get some masks for me to wear while I'm around other folks.

Mom called this morning. She's too sick to come up today, so I'm leaving soon to pick up the turkey that she always cooks and brings up. I got the usual, work gloves, clothes, underwear beer, and some really nice Armani cologne, so at least I smell good for a change.

Underwear beer? I've heard of, and drank- beard beer, but underwear beer is new to me.

I got a bible. Large print. I don't know if I am weird but I have never read the bible. Several people I hold in high regard have recommended that I actually read it. My wife actually got me one. A very nice leather bound one. Really a gorgeous piece of book making. I am actually very surprised and very pleased.

Beer, shop towels, and ticket to GRM 24 hrs of Daytona Experience!

My flu finally broke this morning

I got up relatively early this AM and went to my parents house and made breakfast for the family after we opened stockings. Last night was a late one after being at my in-laws for their celebration. The morning was bolstered by some good coffee and some thick cut bacon I ordered special from a local butcher. There was much rejoicing!

After a tough year of medical issues with my Dad I am thankful to be able to celebrate this one with him. Be safe out there, hug the ones you love and don't scrimp on the bacon.

Got the new Foo Fighters CD after my wife and I watched the "Sonic Highways" documentaries and really liked them.

The PS3 and GT6 technically qualify as Christmas presents as well, even though I got to use them before the holidays.

In reply to dean1484:

Read the book of John first. Then head to the old testemant. Moses is good. First and Second Samuel - the story of David is great. Then read about Saul/Paul in the NT. The four Gospels are another good starting point.

a G-Force gear bag … should hold helmet, suit, and h-n restraint … all in one

I get to make double-time today. The GF's kids made charitable donations in my name. I want for nothing.

i got tweezers.

really good ones.

In reply to VWguyBruce: You can make your own Mort and use it as a fermenter with good results after using the starter kit which uses extract opposed to Mort

Cliff notes:

Don't be an shiny happy person.

Don't kill anyone (It's kinda fuzzy on this one though)

I got a new set of leather party pants to wear on my motorcycle.

It goes especially well with the Fromunda cheese I got in my stocking.
