This place needs some decorations! Lets see if I can fix this........ Lets start with something over the door!  There, it already looks more festive around here! Now for a tree.......And what tree is complete without a train under it?  OK, thats MUCH better! Now for some lights! Do you guys like the frosty colored ones.......  or the regular ones?  OK, lets do the regular ones! And since this diner is in an old RR car, we need a proper loco to pull it for the Christmas Eve scenic run, right? I took the liberty of taking care of that. Will this do OK?  Well, just gotta head out to run errands! Got more Christmas stuff to get! Enjoy the decorations! Hey listen, I don't know how much I'll be on here in the next couple of days. The visiting schedule is nuts you know. I'll pop in when I can. Til then, Merry Christmas |

Merry Christmas to everyone! Morning all! Everyone got their shopping done? How about the wrapping? Yeah, I thought so! Christmas tree looking full underniegth?  Can you still run your train? Thats a priority, isn't it?  Well we went to Christmas at my wifes fathers side of the family yesterday. My wife cleaned up! She got  and a standing floor model type jewelry case filled with jewelry. It's from her Aunt Lilly, so it's all the real deal. That jewelry case was full too! My wife was overjoyed!  Tonight we have Christmas Eve service at the church and then it's over to the grandparents house for a Christmas Eve dinner and some more presents for the kids. Later tonight we'll be waiting on the big guy himself!  So whats the plan in your neck of the woods today?  |

Got another 3 day weekend coming. Can't wait! Just have to cruise through today.
Spent last night laying carpet for my wifes art studio and then built an air hockey / fooseball table for my son. After that, I was spent. I took a shower, watched an hour of TV, and then I was out like a light!
Tonights plan: NOTHING!
