A verysincere thanks.

If you believe in prayer in the Christian faith, the reality is Christmas is derived directly from Jesus Christ (Christmas is about Jesus Christ no matter what faith you are IMO). I honestly believe that you should have "Christmas" in your heart 365 days a year, which in turn means you should have the love of Christ in your heart every day of the year as well.

Christmas trees, Santa Claus and physical presents take a back seat to the things that really matter.

Amen

What would be cool is this. Take that photo to a sign company. Have them print it onto a 24" X 36" metal sign with "NO TRESPASSING" below. Put that at end of driveway. I bet they'd sell like hotcakes.

Now we're getting somewhere! I want a sign for Christmas to inform the world that I will shoot them if they DARE set foot on my property!!!!

(Disclaimer: I'm not trying to start anything with you. That just struck me as funny. Getting into the Christmas spirit!)

I ask for nothing material at Christmas. I give to immediate family $100.oo bill.
What I want for this Christmas is an end to this Covid fiasco.

If you put a picture of a camera and a rifle on the same sign, let them that dare find out which it will be.:D

No signs here. I believe that they are smart enough to know right from wrong.
Besides why ruin their surprise.

I remember my friend explaining to his wife why he had so many different guns.
He told her when the marauding hordes came that some guns were for long range shooting at them. Then others were for medium range, the shotguns and pistols for close range.

We had a conundrum for the holidays this year because of the The Virus and my parent's age. Should any of us travel, if so, who?

In the end, my parents decided to travel to visit us, as usual. :confused3: Really, we are danged if we do or danged if we don't because of their age.

A few days after getting here, my dad got sick, and after 24 hours, he had a very high fever which meant a stay at the hospital.

He has a bacterial infection, not The Virus, flu A or B. He has been on IV antibiotics for a couple of days and the doctor can't figure out WHY he has an infection. Everything looks good.

Because of The Virus, only one person can visit the hospital, which is my mom. She just left to go visit and take a present to my dad.

We will not open gifts or have Christmas dinner until my dad gets out of the hospital which might not be until Sunday.

Our Christmas gift this morning was that my dad sound MUCH better and like his normal self. The final gift will be him getting out of the hospital and hopefully cured of this mystery bacterial infection.

We are thankful for the nurses, doctors and staff at the hospital for taking good care of my dad. Especially, during Christmas. :thumbsup:

Later,
Dan

Dear Family,

Do not buy me anything for Christmas.

If I want it, I already bought it.

If I want it but can't afford it, you can't afford it either.

If the urge for giving overwhelms you, donate to your favorite charity. Give to those in need.

:thumbsup: I feel like the Grinch, Scrooge, and Snoopy's Red Baron combined. I put up a tree last night, then placed Ruger's treats from a friend's cat and my new reloading set under it. It's after noontime and I haven't talked to anybody since leaving the grocery store yesterday at about this time. Christmas dinner is on the stove... I'm heating leftover American chop suey from last night's supper.

It doesn't bother me a bit.
