Merry Christmas everyone

Started my week finding the correct parts for the repair of my wife's car. 

I visited "Pick a Part" wreckers where they had a similar car that had been rear ended. I paid my $2 and walked in with my tool box (would have loved to do photos here, maybe in a wedding dress and getting greasy, but today I'm on a mission, in boy mode), checked and removed a front left axial, paid for the part on the way out and replaced the wifes car stub axial. It's nice having the correct tools for the job, even if I only need them once in every 5 years and nothing really beats playing with mechanical stuff, grease or power tools.

Okay - nearly correct tools

Of course there's other jobs, like going to the shop when you realize your totally out of dog food (after a coffee)

Apart from relaxing morning coffee, there's still a need for a few extra presents under the tree for the kids in the quite expanded family.

Before shopping, while the morning light was still low, I decided to try a photoshoot with this dress wife left on our bed last night. 

One thing I learned from it, I still look like a man trying to be a woman - certainly didn't feel that way, felt more like me, trying to be me.

Anyway, it's family time and with that in mind, I hope you all get to join with family (whatever shape or form that takes) and have a very merry Christmas and happy holiday times. My thoughts go out to those who's families are not connected and hope you find a friend to share this season with.
