Favorite Christmas Memories and Re-Gifting at #DadChat

It’s the day after Christmas and all is quiet in the house. Well, the house is actually quite a mess. Pieces of wrapping and tinsel are everywhere. Leftover turkey and pumpkin pie are being eaten by the dog. The record player – anyone remember what those are – is skipping and playing The Christmas Song over and over again by Nat King Cole. It’s gently snowing outside…and it’s time for #DadChat on this Thursday, December 26 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 – 10:00 p.m. ET.

Let’s talk about our favorite Christmas memories – new and old. And, let’s talk about how re-gifting can be a beautiful way to help others!

Bruce is still lost in Africa somewhere. He hopes to join the fun, but who knows if the pirates that kidnapped him will let him use his laptop! In his absence Edna Myers is hosting this evening.

The World’s Tallest Building

In this short video, come with me as I go – in real time – up 124 floors to the observation deck at the Burj al Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, which is in Dubai. All in one take, this 2 1/2 minute video takes you up, with me, the entire elevator ride and then onto the deck nearly 1/2 mile high in the sky! THAT is how tall the building is. What a view. Truly out of this world!

Mom’s Dirty Little Secret at #DadChat

Empty-Nest cartoon

I am somewhere in India or Africa for this week’s #DadChat on Thursday, December 19 from 6:00 – 7:00 p.m. PT/9:00 -10:00 p.m. ET. But, in anticipation of my absence I went looking and found the ONLY two moms in the world who would admit it. Yep, they are going to admit that they are happy when their adult children go home AFTER visiting for “The Holidays.” Yes, these two moms love their kids, but they love them more from afar.
