Enjoying the day (and week) with family & friends and just relaxing.
Retired from my job of 32 years a few months ago but had a new job lined up (too young for Medicare) that also gives you 10-12 days off for the Christmas-New Years break.
Enjoying the pension from the job I retired from
Quoted from MikeTangoIndia:At work.
Same here from 8 to 8. At least I can look at Pinside every once in a while today.
Moving my wife's new elliptical exercise machine upstairs and assembling it.
Thank God I keep my pinball machines on the ground floor! Ugh.
Vacuumed the house and just peeled potatoes for Christmas Dinner.
Yesterday I was hanging pictures.
Apparently have to work harder to avoid work lol.

Edit: spelling
Quoted from TheBigDog:Though we were the only ones with the idea of going to Magic kingdom on Christmas...
That secret was out of the bag years ago! At one time it was a good day to go.
Just finished cleaning up after last night's party. The relatives played more pinball here than I've seen in years! Young and old they gave all the machines a good workout!
Quoted from o-din:Young and old they gave all the machines a good workout!
Always nice to have others enjoying my games..
Anyone with a new game today?
I’m going to eat, play pinball, have a couple beers and just relax. This is the very first time in my working career that I’ve had off Christmas Eve and Christmas Day both in 37 years. I’ve maybe had Christmas Eve or Christmas Day off once or twice during all of those years, but never both days. It feels weird but it sure is nice. I actually went and visited some friends and family last nite instead of going to work. I honestly felt like a fish out of water or something to be able to be out enjoying the holidays with everyone.
Merry Christmas all; just kicking back with the Wife drinking Black Russians,and enjoying this years Kush Crop!! Playing my newly refurbished Fish Tales!! Happy New Year!!!
Quoted from doompin:Taking care of a sick wife and drinking from the bottle of scotch that she gave me.
Hope she is ok and it's nothing serious.
Quoted from LTG:Tech support. Feel crappy.
Lloyd,
You are a great pinsider, you're everywhere! But you need a day off my friend...
Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all had a great day. Now go play your favorite game, you deserve it.
Hanging with my family but feel like crap today...nothing too serious but tired of blowing my nose and sneezing I can tell you that. I'm off all week though so hoping to play some pinball in the next couple of days.
Merry Christmas to pinside!

Visited my sister in the a.m., went to my pottery studio for the afternoon, now I'm thinking it's time for an old fashioned or two, while working on a couple of business plans.

LTG : )
Play less crappy! Love ya Lloyd
Went to Mom's and made breakfast (Pancakes, sausage, bacon and eggs). Mom made a turkey and fixings for dinner.
Watched a bunch of Christmas Music specials and a couple of California's Gold episodes on PBS.
Now I'm at home drinking rum and listening to Reggae/Caribbean Christmas music on Youtube.
I've been the guy who's had to work on Christmas and feel for all those who still do.
Take care, have a happy and safe holiday.
Quoted from TheBigDog:Check out the crowds here...
Can you believe I’ve somehow already made it on POTC, Splash Mtn, Space MTN, and Thunder Mtn??
Anyone else here (Disneysorld)?
I live right behind the Magic Kingdom. I know better!

Sheesh! Reminds me of the Star Trek episode "The Mark of Gideon" with the over populated planet.
I visited mom in the hospital this evening. All that pinball last night must have been a bit much. She was going at it though.

Can’t stand that place on overpacked days... even some of the “light” days anymore are that way though. If you get lucky and land on an actual light day it’s wonderful though!
As for today, visited family, played a little pinball and started tearing one down. Great day!
Went and listened to the Emporer of Japan speak here in Tokyo, we don’t speak Japanese yet but it was a cool experience, and had a great day with my little ladies keeping American traditions alive in Japan!
