Christmases past-back in the day...
In Christmases past, my folks house use to be far and away from other folx houses--25 odd years ago...
So my dad's fraternity brothers and friends (I guess some from the Sigma Pi Phi Boule) would call themselves "Christmas Caroling" at folx houses, then they'd have a hot toddy or two or three...
By the time they reach our house, well... Their rendention of "Silent Night" took a whole new meaning... Like, one year, I was told that the "Drunks" were there when Santa Claus came and they help him put my toys together... That Donald Duck jumping thing kids use to have NEVER worked!!!
Anyhow, those were memorable Christmases...
Now I have my own little family to create my own little traditions... No kiddies to share the wonder and splendor of excitement for Christmas...
