It All Comes Down To Sunday

My bet with Sean comes down to the last game of the regular season. With the Bears at 13-2 and the Pack at 7-8, Sean needs the Bears to win to get my $5 and I need the Pack to win to get his $5.

Our original bet: Sean said the Bears would win twice as many games as the Packers.

I figured the entire division would suck, including the Bears. I was right, except for the Bears--they've been very lucky. Granted, I've had a lot of fun watching (and rooting) for the Bears, for pride, I would like to win the bet. :-)

Best of luck to you Sean!

Another Christmas come and gone....

Christmas has come and gone...and I'm tired. Eddy and I stopped by Grandma's on Christmas Eve and then headed down to Orland Park to see his family. The drive there and back isn't that bad, but after a few Captain&Cokes, it seems very long. Christmas morning, we woke up early to open presents. Ed says I act like a 4 year old when it comes to presents...what's so wrong with that? Rocky made out like a bandit this year...I think he got more presents that Eddy and I combined. I wonder who's fault that is! :-)

Eddy went back to his parents' house and Val and I spent the day with Mom & Rob. It was a great day. I'm not sure when I grew up, but I had more fun watching mom open up her presents. A little role reversal I guess.

I got a lot of nice presents. Overall, it was a great Christmas....and more presents to come...my birthday is only 8 days away (hint hint!)

Happy Holidays!

Christmas is almost here! Get out your leg lamp and settle in for 24 hours of A Christmas Story. I own this movie, but for some reason, I only watch it during the Christmas Eve marathon. ...and I'll watch it for hours on end. What other movie can you watch back-to-back-to-back?

For the first time in years, my Christmas shopping is done early and I stayed within my budget. That never happens!

I hope everyone out there has a fun and safe holiday! ...and good presents too!
