Beginning the Holidays.

Well thought I would update again quickly. It seems a few people think I must be a bit of Grinch. WELL I don’t think I am. Here are a few reasons why.

1) I have already a put the lights on the house over a week ago so the outside of the house is already festive.
2) Even though I am not living at home with my wife and kids I am taking them to get cut a Christmas Tree in the mountains on Sunday for the house.
3) I am the last (7th) person in a lineup of participants for the last CAMAedian standing for our company Christmas Party
4) I participate in the Secret Santa gift exchange at my company.
5) I went and bought a small tree, lights, and tree trimmings and then went and took it to my grandmother’s hospital room to help her with the Christmas Spirit.

Thus though it is thought I am a bit of a hard guy I would like it known I am more of a big soft Teddy Bear. I do like the holidays most years and wish that they would be more about the spirit of treating people good then about the gifts. Small gifts like a tree for someone you love that is sick or participating with caroling or in making people laugh and giving of yourself should be the reason.

PS for a little holiday cheer try setting off all the moving noisy Christmas animals at Wal-Mart and then watch the employee look down that isle and chuckle.
