What'd You Get For Xmas?

@dhcod Love that. 

"Honey...you got me a  NOS quad of 1960s Raytheon 5842/417A windmill getter tubes!  How did you ever guess that's what I wanted?"

Truth be told I got four bars of Italian soap. 

Santa bought himself a 2nd turntable setup with the Marantz TT15S1 table and Parasound Zphono XRM phono preamp for a great stocking stuffer price.

My wife has long given up on getting me anything. Birthdays and holidays are always "what are you buying yourself"? She's very nice about asking if I am enjoying my self purchased presents after the fact!

I got a week off from all of my other jobs to do my favorite job which is being a daddy. Got my kid everything she wanted. Listened to a few sides.

we cooked 4 turkeys, 40lbs of potatoes and roughly 6 gallons of coffee and handed out plates to the homeless by where my day job is. 
 

We are poor and live in a crappy apartment but we give where we can. A nice Christmas for sure.

Nothing audiophile this year, as I have reached stasis for the time being.  Also just had the kitchen remodeled and my wife retires in 2022, so not really willing to spend more money until we know what this year brings.
