    What did you get for Christmas?

    As the title suggests, let's share our pleasant surprises. Here's my combination Birthday/Christmas present, a Browning .380. I'll have to dig out my 356-242 and cast up some boolits.

    Hi...
    Nothing gun related this year. I did get a new recliner, a spotlight and a lot of gift cards.
    My son received an AR armorer's block, a set of gunsmithing tools and pin punches along with clothes and a lot of gift cards.

    Wife got a lot of nice gifts and a lot of gift cards as well
    Both Labs got a new chew toy.

    Everybody has been well and properly spoiled once again at Christmas which is the norm.

    My son tells me that I have some additional gifts coming via UPS or FedEx or USPS or Pony Express.

    No firearms or firearm related objects. But, my wife got a brand new remodeled kitchen so she can cook delicious meals, so I can eat well, keep my strength up to make it to the gun club on a regular basis. Does that count?
    If a 41 won't stop it, I wouldn't bet my life on a 44.

    EDIT.....................

    Things REALLY changed later on Christmas day! At 2:45pm the power grid in our section of town went down for almost 3 hours. So much for that 10# prime rib roast that just about went into the oven!!!!! And to top that off, the toilet in our guest room plugged up and overflowed, flooding the entire room with (used ! ) water 1/2" deep. So I spent the afternoon mopping up by flashlight and planning on what to do. Power finally came on and we cooked the roast. Best one ever, even though we ate at 8:00 PM!

    Saturday, one of the sons came over and we removed the old toilet, (I) dug out the spooge plug that was the cause, and replaced the 30 year old toilet with the new high-end one the wife had been asking for, so she got a toilet for Christmas (in her "office" as we call it!) Thank goodness we still had two other full bathrooms to use during the entire mess.

    ------------------end of edit--------------------------




    Nothing. The wife and I buy what we want when we want and do not worry about holiday or birthday gifts. The boys are coming over for dinner later (prime rib roast) and they will bring "stuff" from my list I gave them.

    The only gift was another day of life on this earth.

    Labradar for me. Wife got a enbroidery/sewing machine. This is our 45th Christmas. Still sad since the kids are on the other side of the country and we haven't see our new grand-daughter yet.
