Low Self-Esteem Christmas Update

So I was was showing my brother the post I did about his Christmas card he made for Ma and Pa (see below) and he set me straight. The use of the word "hopless" was not a misspelling but just that,  meaning he did not hop anymore due to the removal of his leg brace he had been wearing for 2 1/2 years because of his affliction of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease. I thought that was pretty funny when he told me he didn't misspell anything. 
(Note to self: Check with sources before going to print. The truth is always stranger than assumption.)

Frosty Footsteps


I used to do this on the school bus all the time in the winter. Make feet prints using the side of my hand in a fist and then dot out the toes with each finger. Used to make the footsteps walk all over the windows.....

Have A Low Self-Esteem Christmas

I was digging thru Christmas whatnot and found this Christmas card made by my brother, I would assume in grade school.


Looks as though in his youth Chipmunks and Triceratops roamed the landscape. I do like the snowy foliage very much. Looks like a real storm is a brewing.


The inside reads, "Merry Christmas to dear Ma and pa
From the hopless kid Jerry
" . I think he meant "hopeless". Geez.


And then on the back he just used the card later to write a note to my Mom.
