How many of you will be sneaking away from family and friends today to check in on the forum(s) of choice to see what’s going on?
I won’t be back until at least this evening as we have to go out of town for the day. If I were home,I would be checking in every so often for the latest updates on who got what.
I’m working at the fire station today so some of the firefighters with kids could have the day off. As nothing much is happening on this special day, ([bday] JC!) I’ll be checking in often until the radio starts squawking. Somebody’s bound to get a paper cut on their wrapping paper! [:-^]
I hope the rest of you have a great day, no matter where you are! [:P]
I’m here. My daughter got an MP3 player and is gone to the world. My son got a personal DVD player and he’s in Disney Land. My wife is cooking (I put the bird in the oven and I’m set) and my mother-in-law is sleeping off her chocolate binge.
My snuggle and I are going to take a ham over to my parents this afternoon; They are in their mid-80s and tire very easily so we generally do not stay more than three or four hours. My snuggle (a rabid Dallas fan) will be glued to the tube during the game this afternoon/evening and I’ll probably check out the forum when we get back home.
Whatever your persuasion I wish each and every one a joyous holiday season and pray that your route through 2007 is run under green boards.
P & LE RR:
My snuggle was looking over my shoulder while I was reading this post; she said “The EAGLES? Who are the EAGLES??” When the sun sets on the City of Brotherly Love this eve their will, I fear, be much "weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth.
Me? Well, I am a Raiders’ fan … but I wear a sack over my head to conceal my identity!!!
Oh I’ll be here. Most of Christmas Day is usually pretty boring and anticlimatic; Most of the family, church, festive activities for me are actually done on Christmas Eve. I’m a musician and I played/sang at two churches last night, got to accompany a Children’s Choir and later sang a solo verse to a gospel version of “Silent Night.”
Though we’re just about to get to the presents right about now.
But I’ll enjoy the day as much as I can. Christmas Day everything’s quiet and peaceful here in the city, no traffic, how beautiful!
The forums are my current way of following Model Railroading as I am in limbo, my layout is in Wisconsin and I am living in Nebraska as I wait to close on a home here and then move the layout.
This makes this Christmas kind of a blue one, however I do have the family and some new friends here that are making the holidays very good for me.
This make me realize what the troops are going through, probably a lot worse off than I am!
I would like to wish all a safe and Happy Holiday.
