@Becky – Don’t let one bad apple ruin the orchard for you. There are plenty of REAL families in need.

@Lisa – I know! Can’t wait for my new specs. Happy New Year, babe.

@Twinkie – Geez, can’t you send them off to Christmas camp or something? So inconvenient, the schools sending them home for weeks!

@Sheila – Heh, true. Hope you have a great 2009.

I think it’s awesome that you helped out a family in need for Christmas this year. Didn’t it give you the best feeling than any other present you gave or received?

Glad to hear the dental work is coming along as well. Plus new specs? Geez, you will be a brand new man in 2009…step back!

Happy New Year Sweetie!

We used to do the adopt-a-family every year. Then one year when we brought the presents and food over, the parents were driving brand new Escalades and they had better things in their house then we did in ours. It really killed the excitement for me. Maybe next year I will try again. I love having that “Christmas” feeling.

Hope you had a safe, warm and wonderful holiday. (hugs)

That holiday spirit is elusive some years. It’s always amazing to behold when you experience it.

KARL! You are awesome and I know personally how amazing it is to get those kinds of care packages that allow your kids to feel loved and gifted and to just make the holiday more merry…especially when you can’t do it yourself. You deserve a BIG freaking cookie, my man!
