<p>Christmas brunch with long-time friends.</p>
<p>nightchef, your lighted Frisbee tale made me smile!</p>
<p>Perhaps one of these would also be favorably received: [Nite</a> Ize: Product Detail](<a href=“http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=32&product_id=162]Nite”>http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=32&product_id=162)</p>
<p>(I bought a number of Niteize products as presents this year, including the Meteorlight. Also these for one family of bike riders: [Nite</a> Ize: Product Detail](<a href=“http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=32&product_id=163]Nite”>http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=32&product_id=163))</p>
<p>…being able to sit in bed in pjs w/laptop all morning…</p>
<p>Being able to spend the entire Christmas weekend at home with just my H and two grown kids. No driving hours to the in-laws. No hosting guests and taking them around town. Just the four of us at home, relaxing, talking, laughing at the dog.</p>
<p>My H took me out to breakfast today (although the restaurant was so busy and there were only two people working the front- sharing the register and waiting tables that we didn’t eat until lunch time.)</p>
<p>That was fun- I love the food & I got to see one of D’s friends from grade school who was eating there. </p>
<p>H also walked me over to the gym- I have been begging him for months to take me to get signed up, I hadn’t been since I started doing landscaping, cause I was either tired/dirty or both, but with my mom recently dying of heart related problems at a relatively young age- I had another reason to start going. ( But I had a block about going there myself to get signed up for some reason- I think I have to be all outfitted out & ready to work out right then- but I always have something else to do first), which was a huge surprise- I guess now I have to find my gym shoes and a new sports bra!</p>
<p>The Kitchen faucet has been leaking and about two hours ago it went really bad. DS found the diagram on line and I happen to have the right tool to loose the nuts. After going to three stores, I finally found the right parts. Now, everything is fixed.</p>
<p>I was just so happy that I knew some basic DIY and we have the right tool at the right time. Time to start the JD and coke. Cheers.</p>
<p>Spending quality time with the younger generation 
I cautiously asked DD if she wanted to go XC skiing with us. Not only was she happy to join us, she had fun and even mastered the skill of not falling down when skiing downhill with blazing speeds. As soon as she gets ready, we will go to the movies - mom, dad and the baby! Too bad her sister is “too busy” (I suspect it has something to do with her fiance just coming back after being out of town for more than a week :))</p>

I’ve heard a lot of guys use this line :)</p>
