its finally over///////////////

well the time has finally arrived. after week's and week's of looking and shopping and then fighting the hords and masses, we bought all the presents we could afford. then in less than 20 minutes the grandkids and old folks ripped open their presents. some happy, some not so happy and some just plain tired (0425am wake up).

the kids are playing with each new present as they open it. drop what you have in your hands to open up the next present handed to you. after all the paper and dust has settled, its over for another year. all that frenzy, all that waiting and hopeing and guessing at what they were. about to get. ITS OVER, ITS OVER now we can settled down to picking up of the cardboard and styrafoam and torn wrapping paper . i bet the garbarge man dreads this day toooooooo. tomorrow is trash day here in lebanon. tomorrow all the excess paper products will be gone.

QUICK HURRY,DID YOU THROW away the directions to a game or toy.???????you had better check the trash one more time. batteries galore,i bet the battery makers are in cahoots with the toy makers. lets see how many different batteries we can make moms and dads go to the store on christmas day to buy. you know as parents and grand parents we spend enough on christmas day in toyies and batteries that we could buy a small island in bahamas. do they had christmas in the bahamas???? maybe we should go there and see. we could give each grand child a shiny new coconut. fresh from the tree. no batteries needed. then we would see who had who by the pocket book.......... the battery makers would shrivel up and die...... tuff luck/////////////////////
maybe i would have money for a corn dog at the 7-11` store. tell next year, love,pop
