Hope everyone had a fun and safe Christmas. We had a good one. Lucked out without loosing power. Feel bad for those who did. Like last year the meal turned out amazing. Have it done to a science now. Since it is Boxing day. It means time for the traditional hot turkey sandwiches, with left over stuffing and salad.
Again it will be a much different Christmas like last year. All so again trying my best to keep up with traditions. Have the big meal all planned out. Just know it will be amazing. Provided we don’t lose power. Since there is a big storm happing. I hope everyone has the best they can. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
There are only a few specials that I like to watch every year. Garfield Christmas Special is one of them. Luckily it is still on YouTube. Think that is because it is 35 years old now. While the video quality is not the best the jokes still hold up. You can give it a watch here or below.
For many years now the rule in the house was to have the tree up on the first Sunday in December. Well that was last week and I wasn’t feeling so good. So put it up today (December 11, 2022). Cut back a bit on the decorations this time. Putting mostly ones that have some kind of meaning behind them. Think it turned out ok.
It is all most time again to watch my favourite movie, A Christmas Story. Have cut way back on watching Christmas themed movies and TV shows. But all ways find time for this one. Not sure how many time I have seen it. Have owned the DVD copy for about 15 years. All so have it on Blu-ray but much prefer the DVD version. Really wold like to see the the sequel, Christmas Story Christmas. However it is only on HBO Max. Did look on Google Play store. It’s listed there but you can’t rent/buy it. So guess it will be on there at some point.
It might be a bit last or really early depending on how you look at it. My all time favourite movie, A Christmas Story, is getting a real sequel. There have been other sequels and spin offs. Like a Summer Story, A Christmas Story Live and A Christmas Story 2. What is interesting about his new one called, A Christmas Story Christmas, is that the main actor who played Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) is coming back. According to IMDB the plot is, “Follows Ralphie, now adult, who returns to the house on Cleveland street to give his kids a magical Christmas like the one he had as a child, reconnecting with childhood friends, and reconciling the passing of his Old Man.” Will be keeping my eye on this. It could be really great.
I hope everyone had a fun and safe Christmas. We had a nice quit one. Just like last year cooked the turkey breast with olive oil and it turned out amazing. Didn’t making my homemade stuffing. Went with Stove Top. It is better than I though it would be. However did have homemade rolls from a local bakery, which were really good. For tonight we are having the traditional hot turkey sandwiches.
It will be a much different Christmas like last year. We will get though it as long as people play by the rules. I want to wish everyone and their families a Merry Christmas. I hope everyone has the best they can. Still planning on having a great meal. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
