DG found his Santa suit.
According to him, he has lost so much weight doing jumping jacks that the hat doesn’t fit him anymore.

I think he found a bigger hat to convince me to let him go after that eggnog again.
Regardless, from all of us here,

Regardless, from all of us here,

Joy. We have eggnog back in the house again.

Yum.
Oops.

After DG’s dalliance with the eggnog, he was somewhat horrified when he stepped on the bathroom scale.

“Wow”, I said, “and that was just the eggnog. We haven’t even started with the Christmas cookies and the pies and the chocolates and the candy canes!”.
But, DG has a plan.

Hey, do me a favor and keep watching this for a while. DG needs the exercise.
DG has dispatched the leftover Halloween candy, so now he has moved on to the eggnog.

He says that he is just making room in the refrigerator for the leftovers, but I’m not buyin’ it.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
DG finally decided not to go out at all.
He stayed home to hand out the candy.

And to …. eat the candy.
Be careful with that, buddy, it’s powerful stuff.
DG’s latest Halloween idea is to dress up as Bernie Sanders.

“No”, I said, “that will not do. It’s too political”.
“Besides”, I added, “it’s too scary”.

Oh, hush.
DG’s latest idea is to dress up as a ghost for Halloween.

“Well, DG”, I said, “That’s a pretty pedestrian costume”.

OK then…. we’ll leave it at that.
Sad news. Our old Snapper lawn mower has stopped working.

It is at the end of its rope.

It just …… snapped.
But the Snapper is old and doesn’t owe us anything. I still have the receipt. Check out the date.

But all is not lost. Say “Hello” to our new battery operated lawn mower.

It runs on rechargeable batteries. No gasoline. No oil. No blue smoke and noise and stink and oil changes and spills. Just push the button and mow the lawn.
We are Green, baby, Green!
Post Script: Realizing that I still have the original receipt for a 36 year old lawnmower was a real “Get-A-Life” moment.
Halloween is coming soon, and DG is trying to decide on what costume he wants to wear.
He thinks that Batman is the way to go.

Um…….. No.
How about “No”?
No no no no no…..
We still have to live in this neighborhood.
