It&#8217;s a play on words you see&#8230; the phrase could be taken as a search for naughty bits during the Holidays, which for me would mean that I&#8217;m hoping to get fribbly with my Beautiful Girlfriend; who is also my wife, but I&#8217;m not gonna go down that whistle honkler hoochie coochie surprise because I really <em><strong>would <\/strong><\/em>like to enjoy some Ho-Ho-Ho-Hanky-Panky with her but that ain&#8217;t none of your beeswax and if go into detail of what that might mean and then post it on the interwebs for all the world to see it would greatly lessen the likelihood of any Marital Monkey Business so just never you mind, you won&#8217;t be reading about any of that there stuff in this run-on sentence so thank you very much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">OK.\n So what I <em><strong>really <\/strong><\/em>mean\nis:  OK it&#8217;s like this you see&#8230; yes&#8230; um&#8230; don&#8217;t tell my\nBeautiful Wife Lady, but I&#8217;ve been buying stuff for her for a while\nnow and she doesn&#8217;t know it.  Ha ha, I laugh of this in a bigly\nmanner!  Just call me Sneaky Pete, but I probably won&#8217;t answer to\nthat because my name is Ken, but those near and dear to me call me\nKenny, so if you call me Sneaky Pete I might smirk at the sound of it\nbut I might also stare off in the distance because I probably will be\ncompletely oblivious of the fact that you are referring to me even\nafter I just told to call me that in the beginning of yet another\nrun-on sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s\nkind of fun though.  I do some of my shopping online, and stuff often\ngets dropped off on our steps near the driveway.  We don&#8217;t use the\nside door, so even though the UPS man comes and leaves surprises, she\nrarely notices.  That gives me the opportunity to stash things in the\ngarage.  She often goes to sleep before me, so I can sneak off to\nsmuggle the goodies up to my office and hide them in the closet. \nOther smuggling missions involve \u201caccidentally\u201d leaving stuff in\nthe car after coming home a smidge late from work, or perhaps\nconcealing small items in my jacket pockets until the coast is clear.\n \n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Am\nI a rascal or what??<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of\ncourse, some of this covert activity is in the interest of resource\npreservation.  Say what??  Well you see it&#8217;s like this:  we both\nreally like sweet things.  We especially love homemade goodies that\nour friends give us during the holiday season.  However, my Glamorous\nHoney Pie&#8217;s sweet tooth has a much stronger craving radar than mine\ndoes.  If we get something yummy from a friend that we&#8217;re supposed to\nshare, if I don&#8217;t hide it, there will be a mysterious depletion that\noccurs when I&#8217;m not around.  When I forget (or choose not) to hide\nsomething, her sweet tooth zeroes in and attacks.  Upon noticing the\nreduction in quantity I make a scientific observation, and I&#8217;ll\nannounce my findings thusly:  \u201cI think mice have been eating the\nfudge!!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thankfully,\nI&#8217;m pretty much done with my hanky panky gift getting and hiding. \nAnd I&#8217;m even a tiny bit ahead of schedule!!  Here it&#8217;s only the\nSolstice&#8230; usually I&#8217;m out chasing last minute surprises on\nChristmas Eve.  And yes, I&#8217;m hoping to chase the Lovely Love Of My\nLife Lady around a bit during the Holidays; with the full intention\nof engaging in that married-people-hanky-panky I alluded to before. \nBut that ain&#8217;t none of your beeswax so just never you mind!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please,\nall of you, Have a Happy Merry and a Joyful Wonderful.  This time of\nyear always gives me pause to reflect; and there&#8217;s one particular\nmovie that makes me gush with emotion.  The 1951 version of \u201cA\nChristmas Carol\u201d has always been very powerful for me; especially\nthe last few scenes.  Although I didn&#8217;t know it at the time, I spent\nmuch of my early life \u201cwith no eyes to see, no ears to hear.\u201d \nSome rather stark life lessons have ushered me out of darkness; and\nthese days I just try to remain teachable.  This week&#8217;s video is the\nscene that makes me gush tears of gratitude and happiness.  So\nwithout further ado&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/cxCdw309sLo\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"><\/iframe><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Holiday hanky panky&#8230; that&#8217;s what I&#8217;ll call it.
