Did you score any good deals on Black Friday? Is it a day of great deals or terrifying chaos?
I try and stay away from Black Friday. I am more of a cyber Monday guy.
Where are you spending Christmas this year…and what are you looking most forward to?
Home with family!! I am looking forward to some down time before winter/spring tour kicks up first of the year.
What was the best Christmas gift you ever received? (Don’t say “Jesus” because that’s a given!)
The “best” is hard to narrow down, but the most memorable is a Snoopy ‘Joe Cool’ Skateboard when I was like 11 or 12.
Describe one of the most hilarious Christmases.
Probably when my sister and I dressed up like Mary and Joseph. We used blankets and I used a toy lightsaber as a shepherd staff. Did I just admit that?
What’s your fave Christmas song/Christmas movie or cartoon/Christmas cookie?
Song – Changes every year, but I love “White Christmas”
Movie – “Elf”
Cookie – Snickerdoodle
New Year’s resolution—yes or no? If yes, what is your resolution?
To remove things from my plate — both in the food sense (ha!) and the work sense.
