Christmas 2023

I am fairly certain I am getting a Bird Buddy. It's a smart bird feeder that has a camera and an app so you can get close up pictures of the birds and track which species are out there.

Pawpaw and raspberry plants.

I love nice clothes, so that. More bow ties, a new DeWalt tool set for my sculptures. Some art supplies. A vellum pad would be lovely too. Any Franklin Mint, Danbury Mint, CMC, GMP, or Ebbro models to add to my collection would also put a smile on my face.

Above all, continued good health and continued blessings for my family.

Have you posted any photos of your sculptures? I'd love to see some of the creations.

I’m surprised you didn’t ask for that Ducati you’ve been begging for Lol.

He’s got all kinds of his artwork he posted on here years back. I don’t know which threads they’re on though.

You just gave me a great idea. My mother was so excited when they moved into their current house because she thought she had a pawpaw out back, but it ended up being a hedge apple.

Make sure you get 2 different varieties for pollination and plant them fairly close together! We got some at Ty Ty Nursery and ordered the larger ones because we're not getting any younger,

I didn’t think I wanted anything…until now.

I would like to get a camera to watch the frogs in my pond in the spring! They’re not active now, so no need…but in a few months it will literally be hopping.

Everyone at work keeps giving me random things this year, even though I just started this job! While I appreciate the idea, there’s just a ton of stuff I don’t use. I think I’m just going to bundle them up and leave them for my favorite overworked store manager.

My mama had her "giftie closet" - things that she could give to some of the impromptu guests we had at Christmas. She couldn't bear to think of anyone being by themselves at Christmas.

My mom is like that too. I remember she’d always invite people from our church over to the house so they wouldn’t have to eat Christmas dinner alone.

Lmao! Are fruitcakes still a Christmas thing? I never understood why people give fruitcakes as gifts. Those things are mad nasty. I know the majority of people don’t like fruitcake. I know it because there are too many jokes about getting them for the holidays. I’d have left it at work and let it get molded up Lol.
