Tomorrow is Boxing Day

Somebody at brunch today mentioned Boxing Day tomorrow and although I thought I knew what it meant.....(when you box up all your old stuff and give it to the needy) not exactly what I found out when I googled it. I was going to copy and paste but its quite lengthy and every country has somewhat of its own meaning. I like the one that says the hired help gets the day off with a box containing gifts and bonuses and leftovers from Christmas dinner to
share with their family the day after Christmas since they had to work on Christmas Day serving guests.

Just thought it was interesting and worth sharing. :P

Well, I sure know somebody I'd like to box, but she's been kinda quiet this holiday...probably just being lazy...(oh, my - she's really been cooking and cleaning and decorating and prepping for today's big day AND taking care of a sick Ronnie...no easy task. Don't tell her I said this, but I miss her Doofus face/banter.)
