We wish you a survivable Christmas
We wish you a survivable Christmas
We wish you a survivable Christmas
And a profitable New Year.
Grand battles we bring
To you and your repair bill;
Short truce we pledge for Christmas,
It won't last 'til New Year.
We want our debts forgiven

'Twould bring us much cheer.
Grand battles we bring
To you and your repair bill;

"It's the measure of a good Christmas when we're all exhausted."
"Just for us, mom. We're wierd like that."

the extended family finally went home and cleanup was complete. (Just
in case you were wondering what my inspiration was.)
