The lightening really put on a show last night. Thankful for some much needed rain. It's sunshine and 65 degrees this morning. Gonna open up all the windows for some fresh air. I'm gonna try and catch up on some housework. Might even listen to some Christmas tunes while I'm working. :whistle:

Sounds like a delightful day. Except for the housework. Have fun listening to your Christmas music!

One Christmas present we missed out on this year was the NES Classic. I refused to pay the ridiculous prices or deal with another frustrating website crash so I just decided to wait. Hopefully they will be easy to find soon. :treegifts:

Those look like they would be a lot of fun. Maybe they'll have more available before next Christmas.

Thinking about the NES and how hard they are to get reminded me of a Christmas when I was little and my Mom snagged me a Cabbage Patch Doll. She was so proud and I was so happy. I still have my doll. :D Remember the tv footage of people fighting in the stores over them. :lol:
