Stacking up to be a good weekend so far - MIL is in town, and she made some homemade pancakes. Thought I was gonna pass out from the dopamine after eating about twelve of 'em. Pretty ugly outside, but our heating finally decided to work so am enjoying it. Just finished setting up the tree, went down, and cut it with the wife a couple of days ago. We're a bit late on that one, but finally found the time!

Hope everyone enjoys the weekend. Stay safe & warm!

 

Right back at'cha. Wanted to SB you, but that's a different situation that's being figured out right now. Only college ball on today is Army vs Navy unfortunately so thankfully we have the World Cup games instead, but tomorrow we get the NFL games. Brazil is out? Morocco is in? Argentina storms on? This England vs France game is gonna be yuge. These are gonna be some ridiculous finals. Gonna cook some tenderloin, rewatch the movies on my holiday list (check my other post), and simply relax. And I hope ya'll do too.
