There's A Social Recluse On My Roof *OR* Whoa There Fat Man, You're Fine, But The Reindeer Have To Go

Just take a moment to enjoy the title of that blog please.

I'll wait.

Good stuff eh?

I thought so.

Christmas is nearly upon us and we should double check our list to make sure that we have done all we needed to:

• Tried to be creative but just broke down and bought gifts on people's lists? CHECK! 
• Dragged dead tree inside and illuminated the sucker? CHECK!
• Placed trinkets on said dead tree? CHECK!
• Hung hosiery on fireplace so someone can stuff things inside? CHECK!
• Made various pastries for others but eaten the majority myself? CHECK!
• Jacked up my electricity bill by placing lights on the outside of house? CHECK!
• Survive windstorm? CHECK!
• Had at least three people crash into me at the mall because they are looking at other things? CHECK!
• Lugged boxes out of storage so I can put 80% of my stuff away to put out random trinkets around my house? CHECK!

Ok, it looks like I am ready for Christmas. Now to drag my family around to about 52 different locations between Christmas Eve and Christmas.

If you want a treat, come see me sing on Christmas at church. I'll be in the choir and be holding down the bass in a quartet. Guaranteed opportunity to make fun of your favorite blogger.

On The First Day Of Christmas (And Day Two, I Started Too Late)

It seems only appropriate that we celebrate all major holidays here at Downward Brent Lee. Oh wait, we missed Hanukkah. Sorry. So all the posts until Christmas will be filling in the famous song, "The Twelve Days Of Christmas." Of course, we will do it in the Downward Brent Lee way. I'm not quite sure what that will entail, but we'll figure it out as we go. Granted, we started a bit late, so we will double up on the days. You don't need logistics, just keep checking us out to see where we head. And away we go......

On the second day of Christmas, Brent Lee sent to me,
Two Chevy Trucks
