Sit 'n listen while I recount the tale of the Christmas of yester...day!

Started out with me waking up at my new normal time 8:00AM. That was all fine and dandy got up made my bed got everything situated took down my MP3 [which I now use as my means to sleep :P music is good for teh soul!] and set everything from my comp table onto my bed. Set up my comp and plugged in the MP3 to charge then went out and sat down in the living room to wait for my sisters to get up so we could start tearing into presents. After that's all said and done all presents accounted for and such with out missing a beat! Gramps rings up preaching about how other children dont have any presents at all. When he got yelled at he simply replied "I heard someone say 'Only two presents?'" -___- No one said a ruddy word about the number of presents as far as my ears are concerned and they are the best in the family!

***takes a deep relaxing breath***

Anyway I'm happy with what I gave and got :P I gave my mom and sisters some of the more feminin bracelets I have made and gave my dad a ring from some chainmaile minimaile I had made the night before. After all the gifts were given and the paper cleaned up I decided to turn on some cheery music and then migrate into the kitchen to see what I could help with. The monkey bread was already baking and we had some other meal time stuff to prepare when I hear "Whats this shit?".... Gramps being the scrooge he is decides to raise a ruckus about the music! Ew-delaly did he get grams muttering. "He'd make a fine Scrooge!" So the music went off which is a pitty replaced by a telling and retelling of The Christmas Story an all day marathon...

Oh but theres more!

The gas went out half way through gettin the turkey cooked! 'Bout round noontime we tried to fix up the newer tank and found out our hose's connector went rotten somehow. So being the innovative lot we are my pops goes about trying to pick and prod at the connector to fix it. He was at it for about half an hour or so poking and pulling at the nozzle inside the plastic coupling. Pops gave it his all and decided to give it up. So we got more innovative and decided we'd drag out the old hunk'o'junk electric roaster! Teaming that with the camping stove worked well! Got all the fixins completed 'cept for the green bean casserole which I actually missed... it was good on Thanksgiving! The turkey came out so friggin tender it fell apart as my pop's tried lifting it! The bottom fell out and it lost a leg... by the end of the meal it was like looking at what's left over from a bear attack I'd suppose! Dinner was awesome though :)

Grand finale!

A while after dinner was over and the younger of our house were outside doing kid things... the old man [as sick as he is] test's his blood sugar... 57! Paramedics were called and with in a few mins showed up fixed the old man up right and today... the old man's back to his old naggy whiny self!

So yea mine was eventful how was yours?
