Christmas Eve

Today is the day we gather for big feasts with our respective clans. Lunch, dinner, snacks, mid-meal meal snacks. I predict a 4500 calorie day. OY!!! It's a good thing I am already expanded to hold the extra food. Remember, it's about family not finances. Don't let "The Man" keep you down.

2 Days until Christmas

Ah, the shopping season. Crowds. Food. Money. Yes the money. More and more out the door. Just watching a news story about an airline that charged $200 to allow a pet on a plane. $200 for a 4lb kitten that was in a carrier stowed in front of the owners seat. Another case of "The Man" trying to hold us down!!!
