Gee whiz - I think Charles Dickens wrote a novel about ya

My better half comes from a family of "early birds". My MIL has to be everywhere, an hour before she is supposed to be there. Dr. appointments, restaurants, family gatherings etc. All greeting cards, birthday, anniversary, ect., are sent a month in advance.   

So my wife grew up thinking this was "normal" behavior. That said, our lists were fulfilled a couple of weeks ago already.  

Mine was a "part 2" of sorts and a continuation of my last birthday present, which was a new Foredom flexible shaft tool. My plan is to do a tool review  *****[SPOILER ALERT]***** on both of them once I finish getting my workbench area cleaned up. The girls are on vacation all this week so I haven't been able to get anything done around here lately.   

I have my presents ,new AC/DC TIG, MIG and plasma cutter

I'll wish for that as well.

That sure puts it in to perspective John. I think it goes without saying that we all wish her the very best.

... then it is a good thing Santa has a great camera to take pictures of your "screwed-ness". Otherwise we would not believe it actually happened.
