    Santa brought us 3 cords of firewood (76F today) and two new tires for the car. He also brought us a weather station from National Geographic.....which doesn't work.

    What did you get?

    One shirt for work, a sparkly sweater for going out, some Ball herb jars, and a Trader Joe's chocolate passport box.

    And my stepmother gave us each the quilts my grandma made before she died. We didn't even know they existed, but she gave them to her and told her to let Dad decide when we could have them. Dad no longer knows who we are or what they are, so this was the time. Tons of tears, many stories, and a whole bunch of family love happened all at once when those came out. I just wish she hadn't waited so long so Dad could have participated instead of sitting there looking lost.

    I told everyone that I did not want anything. I ended up with a stack of gift cards, some nice smelling candles, a programmable crockpot, and some books. :)

    I got a whole bunch of hugs and kisses and gift cards for golf equipment. Plus I was gifted with a St. Andrews golf towel, hat and ball markers ----------- may sleep with them.

    Santa came early for me and got me 4 eye surgeries! Last one is a week away and then I "should" be done with that for a while. On the other hand my son is getting me a kilt with all the trimmings except the Sgian Dubh which I already have.

    Yours,
    Jack

    Dude - It's scary as hell to learn to drive. It's "safe" meaning its hard to flip and such. However, there are no breaks. You have to sort of spin to stop and when your driveway is downhill - that;s a problem. ;)

    NO BREAKS how can that be safe?!?!?!?! :eek:

    May I suggest you try to avoid driving it towards buildings and people? :p

    Bah - my motto is safety second. But I must say I draw the line at oncoming traffic.
