Title: Welcome To The Spin Zone Christmas Thread
Post by: Number7 on December 23, 2024, 09:49:34 AM
Christmas week can get crazy for many of us, and I wanted to wish everyone a blessed Christmas before things get out of hand.

We are having only 8 for Christmas this year. Time, distance, and mortality keep infringing on our circle of loved ones. I helped my bride get the turkey in the oven this morning, and it had a way of reminding me to wish all of you as blessed a day as we are hoping to have.

Eat, drink, and make merry. Who knows when you will get another chance.

Be safe out there.

Go armed whenever possible.

We're having Christmas dinner tomorrow at my youngest son's house.  Christmas day will just be me and my wife. We'll go to a movie.

Maybe they learned that from the 1983 movie "A Christmas Story"?

I wanted the traditional Christmas dinner but it’s just the two of us and I didn’t want (might not even be able to at this point) do the whole thing from scratch so I ordered the deluxe Christmas dinner for two from Magic Kitchen. It all came frozen last week so I didn’t have to worry about last minute delivery, and all I have to do is thaw it in the fridge overnight and heat it in the oven.

It’s nothing like homemade but it’s good enough.  I used to send it to my mother’s house for Thanksgiving and then fly up there and eat it with her and my sister.

We’re going to my daughters house tomorrow, spend the night although I’d rather come home after the meal. We’re only 15-20 minutes away from each other.

Merry Christmas Everyone! 🥗🎄🥗

We watched it last night with the kids.  Filmed in Cleveland.  My son was born there.

He is the only damn Yankee in the family.

We lived in Cleveland Heights for 6 years. My wife did her residency at the Cleveland Clinic.  I belonged to a gun club in Ashtabula.  Loved going to Amish country west of Cleveland.

I live a few miles from Cedar Point. The lake effect snow hits a few miles east of us. The Amish make the best Whoopie Pies!

Thank you. My friend wrote the poem and narrates it. It was produced by the pastor media director of her church, I guess he put together the video.  She is such a sweet person, I’ve known her since childhood.
