...if you were good this year, that is.
Popcorn got a snuffle mat. She really likes it- perfect for that little beagle nose.

I must have been very good. He brought me a radio, some Guinness and a cannon.

Santa and I have an understanding.
He doesn?t break into my house in the middle of the night and I don?t preach to every kid under the age of twelve about his existence being fiction.

Son got a 3d printer, I got a new hockey jersey and 4 stitches and an urgent care bill. Damn finger cuts.

How did you cut yourself on a hockey jersey?

A brand new BCG, some expensive ?Smell Good? cologne from a fancy name brand, Amazon cards, some ammo.
Got the wife an espresso machine?..she loves it. Now we are crashing from the experimenting with it! This machine was a big hit with her.
Mr. College Boy got socks and underwear which actually appreciates and cash?.cash is king with him now. I?m also springing for his first tattoo Thursday.

Waiting for a new fuel pump so my son and I can replace it when he gets back from South Dakota.

Nice. I got my wife something similar two years ago. It was something she wanted and asked for. I think she used it fairly regularly for about two days and it?s pretty much been untouched since. Hopefully your wife puts hers to use.

Santa must have been unhappy with your behavior. That sounds more like work than a gift.

Ha!
Between me and you, Bert, we could probably open a coal plant! [Coffee]

I must have been good enough. I got money to buy a couple of tires.
I don't know how much Santa had to do with this, but the best part was getting to see my teenage daughter smile in a way I haven't seen in a couple of years. She even gave her 81 year old grandfather a hug. Probably the best thing he could have received.

Santa or maybe satan brought a snow plow that took out the tailgate, bumper and left tail light on my wife?s car. Parked way out there to not get dinged and some shite head made a nice gash about 4ft in the air. Body shop won?t look at it till end of January.
Ordering a tail light as it?s drivable but really stupid that this will take 2 months at least.
I did get a nice e-mail about the delay in my upgraded 3d printer.... it was expected because I ordered at the tail end of a extended black Friday event.
I did start to use an older Christmas Instant Pot, it sure works better than the mystery QVC pressure cooker. I was going to replace the non-stick pot on my rice cooker; but that pretty much would have cost as much as new. So I went with an upgrade and went with a high end brand Zojirushi . I know I can make better white rice on the stove top; but the convenience and better pot design said go quality.
I was never good at cooking brown rice on the stove; and that is where those rice cookers shine. The fact that I don't quite like brown rice has nothing to do with nothing... ;)

A Prusa perchance?

Yep - I wanted to go with the XL - but I went with the normal size one with enclosure.
I might go with the XL in the future; but now I have a new machine to help repair my old machine -

I got the i3 last year on the same sale. You'll love it. I'm no expert, but if you have any questions, since we're in the same town, PM me.

I have an older PRUSA kit that needs the TLC. I don't want to rip it apart and fix with minor upgrades until the new hardware arrives. So for basic 3D printing I am good to go. I did add an extra plate + spool of PLA so that should cover the basics. My old kit is an I3, the current generation is the I3S+ with enclosure. With these upgrades I can use more advanced materials with less issue... I have had a lot of good luck with quality PLA, tho my US based source for said material is out of business. Now to find another source for the plastic goodness.
There are a few toys I would like to re-print in PETG, which was the material that started my desire (need) to upgrade the old printer. I had a little bit more than a desire to get the XL with 3 print heads to allow two color + de-solvable supports.
The other fun thing that Santa brought was some more goodies, but on those things I can drone on and on. (4 esc, F7 controller, and a few frames).
