    Glacier,

    What a wonderful surprize!!! Your Dad sounds alot like mine was, rough around the edges but a heart of gold, who would give you the shirt off his back.

    Have a wonderful holiday with your family.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"

    DO NOT BUY WHILE SHELTER ANIMALS DIE!!

    Very sweet... I'm glad you get to have a nice Christmas with your family this year.

    Any reason in particular that Stuart hates the holidays??

    Someone has already said it - but I will say it again - you are receiving a lovely Christmas present from your Dad - BECAUSE YOU DESERVE IT.

    There are many blessings on Pet Talk - and you are one of them!

    Have a wonderful Christmas.

    Yeah, just what Glacier needs! MORE dashing through the snow........

    That is a lovely way to spend the holidays, and extra special, as it turns out, as Stuart can man the home front!

    He had a pretty miserable childhood and Christmas was no better than the rest of the year. He comes from a small family and most of them don't speak to each other anymore. He has contact only with his father. I come from a huge extended family and in general we all get along pretty well. I don't get along with one of my brothers, but we are civil to each other at family events and he doesn't influence my relationship with his kids, who I adore.

    Most of my family thinks Stuart is a figment of my imagination. He's only ever met my parents and my sister and her kids. He's never met my brothers or their families or anyone from my extended family. I think the big family freaks him out a bit. The critters are an easy excuse for him to stay home! Not even an excuse really since we can not find a house/critter sitter! One of us always has to stay home!
    If you are lucky enough to find a way of life you love, you must find the courage to live it.

    Well, it's good that you have a built-in critter sitter but I am sad for him that he doesn't enjoy such a special time of year.

    I think that is absolutely awesome! Lucky you. I would not like living quite that far from my family. I hope all goes well and you have a wonderful visit.

    I just booked my ticket for December 22-28!
    Well, Here's a "late" Merry Christmas, Glacier!!

    Now, we'd all like a Trip Report -
    How was Christmas at the Folks' House??
