Merry Christmas All!

Looks like a great show tonight...but somewhat annoyed to not see Lux’s It's a Wonderful Life being played this year...The Marriage seems new...some police/detective shows...love The Whistler...and ending with a Lux!

How's it going?

Merry Christmas, Vision! We listened to The Whistler “Three Wise Guys” a week or so ago. It was cute.

How’s it going?

Just the annual Christmas get-together with her side of the evolutionary tree. Darwin got it bass-ackwards. ‘Nuff said. We’ll be up that way the 7th thru the 11th for my holiday chaos.

Merry Christmas, Viking!

No plans here, Vision. Wish we could be off like you till the New Year! :-) Just going to enjoy having some time off from the busy radio work. I’ve been covering for our production director who’s recovering from heart surgery, and I’m SUPER BUSY. It’s rough, because we’re short-handed as it is, without him being out.

Watch that stress load, Gina. Dad put in 15 hour days and it finally killed him at 65.

We haven’t even thought about Christmas dinner yet. Probably something like a steak on the grill and twice-baked potato. What’re you gonna do for Christmas dinner?

Oh, I’m okay, Viking. I do work a lot, between my two part-time radio jobs and taking care of the house and yard work, but I’m not a candidate for stress-mania. :-)

At least you sound like you’ve got the exercise part of it covered with the house/yard work. That’ll peel away the tension. That was part of Dad’s problem. He spent most of his time at the station and never did much in the way of exercise - the yard work was left to me and Mom. A poor diet and two packs of Kool Filter Kings a day didn’t help, either.

Ha. My stepson gave me a variety pack of hot sauces from Hell’s Kitchen. The whiskey-habanero, chipotle chocolate, and green wasabi sauces look intriguing, but the India ghost pepper sauce might kill me. LOL 💀 💀 💀 💀
