Will work for bullets

Well, the Wallace family is finally a gun owning family. Too bad you can't find bullets for the damn thing! Hindsight is always 20-20 and I have passed up the gun counter hundreds of times because I just did not want to spend the money. Evidently we are behind the curve when is comes to arming up. Now I have my eye on a couple more guns and I am checking the shelves for ammo to go with them. So far I have had to order my ammo online and even that is either dissappearing or going up in price significantly.

Anyway, don't break into our house or we will throw a Springfield XDM 40 at your ass!

That Empty Feeling In Your Wallet

Well, Christmas came and went and we managed to acquire ZERO additional credit card debt! What does that mean, it means nobody got any gifts that we will be paying for over the next 18 months. We did not get trapped into any of that 0 payments, 0 interest for 12 months nonsense with a huge interest payment at the end for not paying it off. It also means that we exchanged fewer and less expensive gifts. BUT, what it really means is that we each received gifts that were more thoughtful and truly came from the heart and not from the wallet. So, the way I see it, we got more than ever before.

Here's hoping your wallet and your heart are not empty this Christmas

Christmas Spirit

Yes, I say Christmas and not this watered down 'Happy Holidays' crap! This does not mean that I do not appreciate other religious observations it just happens to be the one I observe. If I say 'Merry Christmas' to you it is not because I am pushing an agenda and trying to force you to give up your beliefs it just means I am spreading the spirit. You can choose to ignore me or reply with your holiday of choice, be it Hanukkah, Kwanzaa or SinterKlaas. I really don't care just don't get pissed at me for saying something that is intended as good natured holiday cheer.

Now that I got that off my chest I must say that with less than 2 day left until Christmas we are feeling the spirit in my house. I can't keep the kids away from the presents under the tree, the money is mysteriously disappearing from the bank account and the stores are packed with people consuming cheap Chinese goods(thought there was a recession). But seriously, we have no family in town this year and we were not able to go visit any family so we are just staying at home and enjoying each others company.

The budget was a little tight this year but I think the gifts are more personal and will be more enjoyable then in years past. Of course the boys have a bunch of stuff that they will soon forget but they will be getting a couple things that they will use for a long time.

Thanks, more to come.
