COLD DARK ROOM

[Prairie Mom]

So, this Weekend German Santa comes to town...yippee! It's Saint Nikolaus on December sixth. Even though we're in the US, we celebrate the Christmas season very German. My kids are so excited that they have already put out shoes by their bedroom doors and are waiting for me to fill them.

I'm expecting Krampus to kidnap my son and give me some reprieve.

 

[Prairie Mom]

They're only flat-pack ones, so 'assembling' would have been a better word.
i've got another three to go, so might be finished by Christmas.

Ha ha I'm sure you can manage by then. Fingers crossed!

 

[Prairie Mom]

Oh!...I should make a St. Nikolaus thread. I wonder if anyone will know what it is?

Is Krampus on call ?
I have a few kids in the neighbourhood who've certainly been bad this year.

Me for one.
A few, i should think.

Ha! He should be! I'll make sure he hits your cool walking district after visiting my windy state

WHAT ?
Tell us more about the note!
Girl or boy ? (the person, not the note)

An 18 year old girl!
Will try to keep it short.
I have not been able to park outside my house all week
So this evening when she drove off I moved my car to unload it.
There was ample room for a car to park behind me (outside their house and
enough for a bus to park in front.
While I was in the shower there was someone hammering on my door
and when came down stairs I found a note telling me I was 'pathetic about moving my car'
and accusing me of 'parking up her arse' as she so classily put it, which baffles me as
she wasn't even there!
I never park close to any of their 4 cars as they often park inches from me,
so I always leave enough space so that I don't get blocked in by them.
They also reserve spaces by spreading their cars out to block other neighbours parking outside
their own houses which has cause a lot of bad feeling around here.
Seems they want one rule for themselves and another for everyone else!!

How are you, Adam? It's about 10:30 at night, right? What have you been up to, Lord of the Dark Room? --Uh-oh...I suddenly pictured you as Lord of the Dance.

I suspect more Michael Flatulence than Michael Flatley

Never heard if that tradition but sounds fun.
Krampus sounds a bit scary though

What a jerk. People these days. I'm sorry they felt the need to be ugly to you Lyn! You certainly don't deserve it.

Hmmmmmm.
What a nasty piece of work.
But, it's like I say, cars make monsters of people, and people who are already not very nice become intolerable.
So you just going to ignore it ?

Thanks meech - they are a very inconsiderate family, and think they have the right to do what they want regardless of it affects other people. I don't know why they stay none of the other neighbours can stand them.

[Prairie Mom]

Okay. Created my St. Nikolaus thread in the off-topic chit chat section. Now, I'm trying to read up on what I've missed in here before heading off for my relaxing evening with the hubby.

Yes, she does!!!
She's being mean to me......again!
