In an effort to curb my natural Grinchyness, I’m going to try some festive poetry over the next week or so…
Christmas is coming, this dad is getting fat
The tinsel’s off the tree and is wrapped around the cat
There’s nothing on the telly and the boys are getting bored
Why is this the holiday that everyone adored?

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Love it, Al. I hope you manage to get the tinsel off the cat. Our dog ate some last year. Made everything coming out of him very sparky though 🎅
