Good Morning everyone, another OLDER guy checking in. I try to sleep in but never good at it. Once you are use to 5 or 5:30, it is tough. It does seem the older we get, the faster the years go by. I was thinking just the other day, how am I 47 already? Headed to my youngest sisters about 1 for dinner, fun, and some drinks. We always haev fun and play dice(654), cards, Bingo all for a little change to make it interesting. Then we will have the day to ourselves tomorrow. Have to get the car packed up and do our Christmas thing. I did manage to get the check engine light off yesterday, those darn gas caps. Got the Monte all washed up. Never travel in a dirty car if I can help it. Space-why cant those record breaking temps wait till I get there? Everyone travel safe and have a great day.

Morning, all. The blog sure is busy this morning, what with all us old people waking up at the crack of dawn. Rick, have a good trip to Arizona - take lots of pictures to share with us here on the Forum. We're off to clean the Monte and get ready to go to our daughter's house this evening. It's always fun to see the kids on Christmas Eve, surrounded by more toys than they can comprehend - this year should be extra special, so many friends and families have donated gifts by the bagfull. Lisa's chemo treatments have kept her from Christmas shopping so her employer and old college friends have pitched in to decorate her house, buy presents for the kids, and generally spread good cheer when it's needed the most.
Space, hope you have a good day with the SpaceBums. Will you have a big Christmas dinner with them and your senior friends? The Florida weather sounds wonderful - it's 25* here in St. Louis (but it feels more like 23*). Happy Christmas Eve!!!

It's not old at all.
Good Morning everybody. The blog is on page 3 already? Wow.
Angie, that certainly is nice of Lisa's friends and co-workers to do that.
We got a dusting of snow during the night. Not enough worth shovelling. But enough to turn the grass white and make it look somewhat Christmassy.

Hi `Keane,
I sure hope 18 isn't old...I just turned 23 the 1st of this month, but I do feel kind'a old 2day ...LOL ~> & I don't think I would be `up all night `if I wasn't working night shifts...
I have always been a early riser, but my g/father said it's because I didn't want to miss anything
Keane, wish you a fun time with your friends & a E.Z. work load 2night @ the store...EnJoy the Season.

Reason we were up so early. Is we were bored stiff last night. After going to the Mall of America yesterday. Not crowed at all. Did some walking around and had lunch there. Came home and did some packing for the trip. Then to watch some TV. But nothing was on. Damn reruns. So we fell to sleep on the couch & the recliner. Got up around 11 pm and went to bed. So at 4 am I was looking at the clock. When my wife go out of bed. I asked where you going? She said time to get up. Slept long enough. I rolled out also and made coffee. Busy day with family in a few hrs and some football. Whole family is into football. daughters son in laws me. ohhh not my wife. She watchs it cause theres nothing else for her to do. . Ok all got to get busy and get the Monte clean up also. Bright Sunny near 40 day here in Minn. C ya
