Did my fourth and final driveway plowing this morning... just before the ATV died (again... piece of crap). Also got up on the roof and cleared off the satellite dishes so we have TV & internet once again.

Yes, next up this weekend is getting the roof rake out to prevent ice dams from forming... *sigh*
I did make some darn nice hamburgers on the grill for the kids and I as we were all home today. The grill-meister strikes again!

Thanks for everyone's concern... we're fine now. Road a clear, we have TV and internet... that's pretty much all you need, right?
Before I head out to do the last of my Christmas shopping... have some eye candy for you. Did the last two small sections of my Aegis Defense Wall. Just 3 big sections and the gun left to do! (Oops, looks like I need to black in the blast marks... will be sure to do that.) Would like to include some new posters but my printer died. I'm thinking that'll be remedied at Christmas.
And all 5 sections together:
I'm off to go snag my final gifts!
Toodles!

This... my dear friends.... is post number Twelve Thousand! (12,000)
The only reason I've gotten to this milestone is because I've been able to make so many good friends here on dakka. Both new and old, you've helped to inspire me, teach me, keep me sane & talk me off the occasional ledge. Thank you for your consistent companionship, camaraderie and faith in me, even when my faith in myself was flagging.
Merry Christmas my friends!!
I hope that Santa brings you what you'd hoped for, that your travels are safe and that your holidays are filled with love and Joy!
Gits
