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.

oh yeah....BAH! HUMBUG.
I'm with Gator, BAH!!!!!! HUMBUG!!!!!!!!!! I don't deny being a Grinch!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad your not feeling like a grinch and good enough to go setting of the noisy Christmas animals, I do participate in that, all year long ;)
P.S. maybe the few people that think you are a bit of a Grinch are either personal attacks??? Who is it in your life that are saying this? I certainly don't expect you to answer that, but hope you think about it. P
lease don't let others perception or attacks regarding you being a "Grinch" change your spirit. I think that the holidays should be just as you mention, and less about the commercialization of what it has become.
There ya go, my long winded comment, again. ;)
Happy Holidays!!!

we should all remember the reason for the season. anyone who calls you a grinch, should look for the plank in their own eye first.
