I am wondering what Gulchers are doing for Christmas. We have an interesting mix in the Gulch but regardless of beliefs I think its fine to celebrate and enjoy the holiday. My wife is active in her Church so I'll be going there tonight and then a nice quiet day tomorrow. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone.

    My wife and I will host traditional Christmas by celebrating Jesus' birth as our Messiah and Lord, the only begotten Son of God. There are lots of gifts under the Christmas tree for our two (local) granddaughters (10 & 3) and our daughter, as the Dad/husband is away from home working as a Air Flight helicopter pilot (also a Army National Guard Blackhawk pilot). There is a late breakfast, afternoon movie for the two kids, then Christmas dinner. It will be a long and exhausting day, and I may not be able to squeeze in a nap! Merry Christmas and may joy flow abundantly in your home!

    Since I am on my own I try to make the best of it. Christmas was my late wifes favorite time of the year. SHe decorated everything. I do miss that, but I have moved on. Tomorrow(Saturday) I am going to my nieces house for Dinner. That whole side of the family is working today, so they have Christmas on Sat. I am looking forward to that.

    Merry, joyful and safe Christmas to all you gulchers. Enjoy it now because there is a tornado of crap coming from the POTUS and his buddy Bloomburg. He only has one more year to destroy the Constitution and our rights.

    I'm watching every classic Christmas animated special (Flintstones, Mr. Magoo etc.) and comic satire I can find on the web... my personal favorite is "Blackadder's Christmas Carol". Here's the link- promise that you all will love it if you've never seen it before: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2df...

    I'm going to a quiet little dinner party at a house 5:30 this afternoon. I was invited at the last minute.
    And this type 2 diabetic was asked to bring something sweet.
    I could tell the always weird girlfriend my brother moved back in with in Delaware after the passage of decades was in charge of the presents this Christmas..
    This particular brother would never send me a box with two apples, another box with 6 pears plus a plastic bag with chocolate speckled popcorn in it and yet another box filled with tasty-looking little cakes and assorted candies.
    Problem solved. That last box is big enough for those who may show up with a sweet tooth.

    Christmas music in the background, tree and decorations lit up and snow covering everything.

    The run-up to Christmas is, for us, the best part. Thanks to climate change, we did NYC in springtime attire. Morning at Saks, Lord and Taylor, Hermes, and St. Thomas (CofE), Lunch at "21", and afternoon at Ferragamo and Versace.

    My (soon-to-be-ex-)wife is probably on the phone with her married boyfriend all day. My girlfriend broke up with me two days ago. My family all live on the other side of the country. So I've got my booty call over. Love it!
