so, i got my dad a new printer. his is at least a few years old and it\u2019s horrible. and now he has a fancy new one, and it\u2019ll print beautiful photos. <\/p>\n
and then i was at best buy at the beginning of the week and on impulse i also bought amy and jim a new printer. new printers for everyone! i was excited about buying dad\u2019s printer, but then i was even more excited about buying the second one. amy bought her printer last year, after i bought mine, and it\u2019s identical…except their printer prints HORRIBLE photos. i mean, the printer was obviously defective but they never took it back, and they kept thinking it\u2019d start printing right. but when i was in best buy wandering around trying to get something just to get something, suddenly this light bulb went off in my head and i bought the printer.<\/p>\n
it\u2019s very very quiet here right now. amy is napping, jim has been napping but is now looking at photos in a book. mom and david are taking a walk, and dad is doing something quietly somewhere.<\/p>\n
ahh. <\/p>\n
here\u2019s a photo of dad and shortie, just before the gift-opening began:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
and this is jim with his fuzzy new blanket from mercedes:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
and here\u2019s amy with her “cuddler,” a big blanket thing with snaps and a zipper so it becomes a big soft robe, sort of. mom and i also got one:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
mom got me this mug. ![\"life...good.\"](\"https:\/\/graceuncensored.com\/WordPress\/wp-content\/uploads\/images\/life.JPG\")
<\/p>\n
hmm, life, good? life\u2019s not so bad. <\/p>\n
consider the alternative.<\/p>\n
david gave mom some instant lottery tickets, and they were studiously trying to figure out if she won big. she didn\u2019t, which was a bitter disappointment to me, but she seemed happy to win five bucks.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
and finally, here is shortie, the cutest xmas dog ever.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
whew. <\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
grace about to make some traditional xmas pizza.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
