Well last weekend while camping my favorite chair died, what do you think of the replacement...

Has six cup holders which should be enough :grinning:

With a standard camp chair in front of it for perspective. I am 6'3" and when seated in it my feet don't even touch the ground.

Well.........my Christmas week was interesting. My week goes like this: Monday: Work. Tuesday: Wife gone, sick kid (had some strange rash, turned out to be heat rash the Dr said) and my furnace goes out (Bye bye $2,500) Wednesday: Locked the keys in my Jeep (Luckily a good friend is a local Policeman) Thursday: Christmas Eve!!!! Wife is sick so just me taking both boys to two family Christmas' Friday: Christmas, it was good! Then Saturday comes.....Guess who's sick this time! Me! So my wife takes both boys to her moms family Christmas party. This concludes my lovely week. The furnace was the really sucky part, it gets installed today. So we went a week living on electric space heaters. Didn't get any overland gear but did get some Amazon gift cards that will turn into gear. My main Christmas gift was the shiny new furnace.

I really asked for nothing this year. Maybe some undershirts and socks lol. Wife hooked me up xbox one terabyte storage. Star wars battle front and assassins creed unity some sweet headphones. Giants license plate frame . Father in law got me some vleds for my superduty along fancy headlight bulbs. I really didn't expect so much goodies

I've been carrying a Benchmade knife around for a few years, but always liked the idea of the Leatherman. I just always thought they were too big. Well I got this from my daughter and I've been carrying it with the pocket clip. It's amazing! Just a bit larger than my pocket knife, and a 154CM smooth blade. I've used every tool on it at least a few times. It's amazing how often I need pliers and a screwdriver. Love having it on me now!

Man, I'm sorry to hear that! We've had this thing over the past couple of years where every holiday someone is sick. This year it was my daughter with Fifth Disease. Not too bad though, considering. Sounds worse than it is. Hope everyone gets better quick!

As far as the furnace goes, I think everyone hates replacing house stuff (not very fun), but I'm always glad afterwards that I won't have to deal with it again any time soon. Old appliances failing always loom in the back of my mind, and I enjoy getting rid of the worry of the old stuff. Hope your new year brings more fun!
