3. LOL... with the rising costs of fuel these days |
|
Another punishment would be more fitting...
I told my friend's kid that if he was bad, Santa would send him to the North Pole & make him work all year at the factory making toys for all the other girls & boys.
What about the elves?
On strike.

2. No.. But one year they got "office supply" stockings |
|
each one got their own: stapler scissors tape rubber bands paper punch paper clips
Alas..it did not work, They just lost THEIRS too and still came after my own..:(
Another year they each got their very own iron.. (I got tired of having "gunk" on the bottom of MY iron..
They got real presents too :)

I'd put coal in my mom's.
I'm serious. The woman destroyed me when I was 19. She continued to do so until I was about 22.
Sorry. LOTS of bad blood and lost respect and love. Just needed to vent.

6. my daughter, paris junior, the psych major will be receiving some coal... |
|
...in her sock this year. she went over budget.
instead of a bundle of switches, this year she gets some cash for her xmas trip to vegas as a reward for not getting into a situation with a policeman for one entire year.
