    Just what I needed. Socks, underwear, gloves, and Lowes gift card. A book on local history!

    A 100 dollar gift certificate to a Cajun meat market I never knew about!
    What should I get? Deboned stuffed chicken sounds good!

    Cannot complain. Santa found and looked after me again this year.
    New undies, check! New comfy warm wear, dbl check. Lee Valley gift card, triple check.
    Few watch accessories from my lad. A wooden case to hold them all being one.
    Still space for one more really nice one, hehe. Maybe next year..

    I spoiled the missez this year with a very warm winter coat! She will need the extra layers this season.
    Plus she looks great in red!

    I didn't open a present this Christmas and I am happy. My missez and I especially after being together for a while get what we want and it is hard to buy for each other. Christmas eve I picked up my new safety glasses and she is still looking for the new phone that catches her eye.

    Covid still is having its effect and due to a couple of my immediate family having it has delayed my immediate family get together until the 7th of Jan. I will get with the grandchildren then! Nothing bad but I hope that next year we are all healthy at the same time.

    no presents to open this year, Mrs. and I went to visit her sister in Nashville and decided that would be our gift to each other. That makes it easier anyway. She was sick all weekend so we didn't get to go anywhere or see anyone. Kind of a bummer weekend.

    Yea Yea I know. It's really not a chinese razor, but the box is! It says F.W. Engels in the other side of the blade. Never had one of these but it looks like a good shaver. I'll let you know. I am going to use it tonight.
    Semper Fi !

    Nice one John. That one is in really nice shape. Engels razors are really tough and you should get a lot of good shaves from a single honing.
