The time has finally rolled around for trees, reindeer and decorations.
For red and yellow, you suppose what I mean? It’s Christmas time! In all seriousness, I have already bought our children and our wifey presents.
But I wanted this year to stand out, I am tired of the same outdated buying presents and opening them, and then basically going right back to bed to sleep through the afternoon uneventfully. What both of us needed was a tradition, something to help pull the family together in a fun interest, then growing up, our family had a tradition of secret Santa apart from the respected gift giving. I wanted to introduce something similar to our adolescents… As I was passing through the grocery store, a giant box caught our eye. A gingerbread house. I figured this could our current little tradition, so I went ahead and bought it… Upon arriving home, our adolescents were delightfully at the plan of building a gingerbread house, and our wifey liked the creativity as well. I provided them the gingerbread box to assemble, when I heard a odd humming sound. I followed the noise to our furnace. Uh oh, that’s not good. My furnace wasn’t looking so great and was barely puffing out air. I spent all of our currency on Christmas. I wouldn’t be able to call an Heating as well as Air Conditioning serviceman till next week. Even worse, the entire heating plan died a few fifths later. I joined our family in building a gingerbread house, while trying to push the nagging thought of being drained of more currency that I couldn’t afford to spend, but luckily, our wifey and adolescents seemed to be so distracted with the gingerbread house, the now cooling breeze didn’t seem to bother them.
