It’s almost Christmas and who has time to write a blog post? I sure don’t.
Today I’m checking in to say Merry Christmas and to thank all of my followers, subscribers, groupies, lurkers or whatever you call yourselves. I appreciate you and wish you the very best this holiday season.
Here’s a little silliness courtesy Jimmy Kimmel and YouTube. Whatever you do this holiday season, please do NOT give the gift of Kleenex or Pull-ups, especially to a boy child.
Enjoy. And may you all receive wonderful gifts – like toothpaste – this year.
Peace out!
Have you ever been pranked? At Christmas? Have you ever pranked anyone? Your child? What was your worst holiday gift?
Word of the day: Rennet
Fun fact about me: I’ve never given a prank gift (but I love white elephant gifting.

Never been pranked, though my husband has received coal in his stocking more than once (in addition to plenty of good gifts!). And a big yes to “who has time to blog.” Not me! Hope your holidays are great!

Hope you have a great holiday, Patricia! I LOVE pranking people, but I usually don’t do it at Christmas time. That’s just…sinister.

Thanks CJ. I’ll remember that you are a prankster. Hopefully it won’t be directed at me. But, if I find myself the recipient of your pranking, watch out, pay back’s a you know what.
Have yourself a merry little Christmas!

Happy holidays, Patricia! My mom and sister pranked my husband once. They enjoyed it. He did not. 🙂

Yeah – that’s the thing with pranking, it’s only fun on the giving end. Poor hubby. I hope he got revenge.
Thanks for sharing and have a lovely Christmas.

Never been pranked. Nor do I remember my worst gift, but I do remember my worst behavior – it was when I was in 8th grade – exactly the the age level I teach – and I was ungrateful. Your post took me back 41 years and then ahead to Christmas 1988. Thanks for the nudge. Peace on Earth, goodwill toward men.

Uh oh – did you get Kleenex? I didn’t mean to bring up bad memories, but it sounds like it was a learning experience so I’m glad you’re a better man today because of it.
As always, thanks for stopping by. I look forward to seeing you next week and into 2017.

I’ve hidden big gifts and then given a tiny wrapped box with instructions how to find the gift. That’s as close as I’ve come to pranking. My gift to myself today is catching up on your blog! I’ve been immersed in the WIP for too long! I hope Christmas at Baer House is magical and that 2017 is your best year yet for everything! May your days be merry and bright!

Same to you Phil. The holidays have a way of sucking our time in weird ways we never thought possible.
Merry Christmas (very belated to you as well).
