--- Ok, so we're back online and here's the pics I promised.
The Sister-in-Law and her family came over during the holidays and we
did the usual gift exchange thing. It seems that the small children had
some say in what their uncle and auntie received for Christmas and we
had no
problems with that. They did rather well, I think, and we're both
delighted with our goodies. The husband has needed new slippers because
he hates the ones I gave him a couple of years ago, his main complaint
being that they slide too much and he has no toe strength to keep them
in place. That and they don't keep his feet warm, either, which is a
big requirement here in winter.
I don't think he's going to have much room to bitch anymore, after
receiving these.
Now, if only he would stop growling when he walks around the apartment, pretending he's actually a bear, we'll be doing good.
I, on the other hand, got these.
That's
Fred on the right and Barney on the left. And, yes, I had to name them.
They have such cute smiling faces it simply wouldn't do to let them
remain anonymous.
Now the question of the day is: who would win if there were a battle
between the bear feet and the monkeys?
