Goodbye and Good Riddance 2016: We know the world didn't end, because, check it out!  

Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.

Go away, 2016.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb

I was elfed, today, too! I received a spiffy Iron Man drinking glass. Fortunately, it does not have a repulsor on the bottom, so it won't jump out of my hand unexpectedly. I hope. Depends on how often I refill it, I suppose.

Oh, maybe I got elfed instead of Secret Santa-ed. In any case, I love the lemony soap and iTuens gift card!

And my giftee will be getting a preliminary gift next week. Ahem.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just got a great package from amych!! A "fuck off" coloring book for 2016, a gorgeous scarf for 2017 (although I'll start wearing it immediately!!), and a really lovely note and donation to PP. Thank you!!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I got lovely cards from Debet and SueO.

Amych is off my list of potentials. And then there were 3.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Buffista elf appeared and gifted me with a Wonder Woman water bottle and some nummy chocolate caramels (which happen to be a favorite!). I had totally forgotten that there might be gifts coming, so that was nice

Punishingly Intricate

Things in my Box o' Canadianness from Sue include: super cozy Canadian flag mittens, local coffee, local blueberry rum chocolate balls, local chocolate caramel bar (that I ate up right away! NOMS), a Canadian passport ornament that went right up on the tree, a card game where you guess who's a Canadian or not, a bag of "Chicken Bones" (cinnamon candy filled with chocolate...regional treats for the win!), and a CD of Canadian music which I haven't played yet but which my Canadian citizen husband says is probably "all the Hip."

So generous, Sue!! Made my & Canadian Bob's Christmas!

hip deep in pie

Aw, I'm so happy that you liked it.

There is only one Hip song, and even then I had to obtain it to put it on the mix.

So 2016 ended with my 89-year-old father passing away. Well, I hope he gets to share a cocktail with Debbie Reynolds.
