    1). Perpetually aggravate the wife between now and Christmas by reminding her daily that I have her presents but refuse to tell her what they are or acknowledge if any of her guesses are correct.
    2).Avoid contact with the vast majority of people. I prefer to stay low profile and away from the social chaos known as holidays/ family gatherings.
    3) Try to do what I feel is right to help others in need. That's really a year round thing. The wife gets extremely focused on children this time of year however so we try to do a little "extra more". We never could have children and by the time we considered adopting, my health put a damper on that. It really perks her up to focus on "Christmas Angels" and shop for what is needed.
    4). Do my damndest to work a little less, save a little more $$, and enjoy time w/ the wife and the beasts.
    5). Defo continue w/ my lifting. There's this really good "mate" from England that has this heavy duty HIT thread going. There are some really great guys in the thread and I plan to continue to learn and apply what I can from them. These guys have helped me make good progress considering I'm on a marginal TRT. I believe that w/ continued work, I may look better @ 51 years old than I did in my early 40's. Hopefully, along the way I'll be able to help someone else.
    6) It's also getting close to the time of year I get "ink fever", so I'll continue the process....although the wife has requested that IF it's possible, perhaps scale back the "shock value" of the ink slightly.....pfffft....as if......

    Admirable and wise, DCI. I wish I had been more diligent about saving when I was younger, although we do fairly decent about saving now. The hardest part for me was identifying my actual "necessary" expenses. Once that is done, making a budget is fairly easy. Kind of like following a meal plan. Periodically examine, evaluate, and adjust as needed.

    LOL I believe the majority of us are to some degree. Creating a budget and sticking w/ it can help w/ avoiding the impulse buys...or at least it lessened the frequency of impulse purchases for me.

    In the new year ill most likely be proposing.....

    Around Xmas or New Years I'd like to add a portrait of my grandmother to my sleeve. Idunno if it'll work or not but my artist will let me know. If not - ill work it in somehow.

    - for christmas all I really want is to make it memorable for my daughter. If nothing else happens..... Ill be fine with it. She's been asking for a bike and next week I'm gunna get one for her so its all done with before the holiday rush
