Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Rarely have I experienced the crushing disappointment that comes with a failure to procure adult beverages in advance of a holiday. What can I say, when you’ve got your priorities in order, that sort of thing just doesn’t happen. But when it does, it’s not the end of the world. Sure it may feel like …

So…we made it through Christmas. Today was a day of *flop*. I don’t know why this Christmas was so exhausting, but wow. I must be getting old. I’m posting these pictures of Tansy with Santa for two reasons: first, so they can be up for all to see, and second, pleasepleaseplease tell me I fixed …
So um, guys? Where did 2013 go? Who ate it? It feels like we’re just getting warmed up, but here we are, getting ready for Christmas. Exactly how did that happen? I started writing this yesterday when we were in the middle of one hell of an ice storm, in which the cops are telling …
And now, a few morning words from Gill. Wait, before we get to that, I must say a little something. Yesterday she, unfairly I feel, slagged on Christmas fruit cake. I shall now, as I did in the comments, confess that I enjoy the stuff. I don’t know why it gets such a bad rap. …

Holy crap it’s Christmas Eve and I’m actually at my computer. That never happens…ever I don’t think. So I figured I’d write a big rambling something or other. It’s been a busy season of Christmas stuff, but it still feels like it somehow snuck up on us. We’ve already taken a trip back to Guelph …
Yes, it really is that time again. I have no idea where the hell this year went but I’ll be honest, I’m glad it’s going. For a lot of people (myself included), 2012 has bitten it pretty hard. I didn’t almost die like in 2011, but that doesn’t mean people close to me didn’t or …
I have no idea who wrote this, but my god is it awesome. ‘Twas the nocturnal segment of the diurnal period preceding the annual yuletide celebration, and throughout our domicile, kinetic activity was not in evidence among the possessors of this potential, including that species of domestic rodent known as mus musculus. Hosiery was meticulously …

Oh dear. Just took a look at Snopes. I had just been thinking “We haven’t seen a story about someone asking for Christmas cards…” Enter Nathan Norman. The poor little guy, bless his heart, is fighting for his life against brain cancer and asked for Christmas cards…and oh boy, here they come. I’m glad that …
