  1. Good afternoon!

    doing laundry, as always, it seems.  Went to Walmart for an order pickup.  Ds wants to do Christmas on Sunday, so I needed a couple more things.   Ds and his gf got engaged this week, so yay!!  Wedding maybe next year.   They already live together.   Did some outside stuff, loved on one of the cats who doesn’t spontaneously forget who I am half the time, lol.  Cats are crazy.  
    got to get some vacuuming done.  And I really want to take some time to read today.  I’ve been slipping!

    Once in my early 20s a neighbor had a small dog tied up outside her back door…..poor dog barked incessantly. XH opened our bathroom window and shot the little dog with a BB gun.   The incessant barking stopped and animal control never showed up.  
     

    I must have my sleep. 

    I would’ve lost my sh*t on dh if he did that.

  3. I haven’t done anything today.   I even took a nap which happens just a few times a year.   I had an awful, horrible, no good fibro flare up on Monday and I guess my body just hasn’t adjusted.  Idk.   I’m planning to take a muscle relaxer and knock myself out early tonight.  
    im glad you’re feeling a bit better, @ScoutTN!

    Do you like it so far?   I just looked it up.  I think I may get it.   
     

    I’m glad you got your card!! I got two yesterday and it was exciting to get a couple of Christmas cards!!

    Work then ran to pick up something at a friend's, grabbed groceries and a cone of shame for the dog (he rubbed the top of his nose raw)

    Got an egg bake in the oven for supper and ran bags of clothes to the drop off donations bin. 5 more bags out of here. Will shuffle some bins after I eat, they need to go out to the garage to get out of the way. 

    What’s an egg bake?  I’ve seen that term a couple times and I’m not sure what that is.   Thanks!

  6. Picked up Walmart grocery order and came home.   Dermatologist said I’m tough as nails.  He burned off a spot and cut another.  I think he expected I’d flinch or something.   Anyway, it’s done and isn’t anything to worry about.   No more dr appts this week.   Trying to decide if I want to put out our outdoor Christmas decorations tomorrow.  I’ve got some on the porch, but I have a couple trees for the front yard stored in the shed.

  7. Supper done.  I hung some oversized ornaments from the ceiling of our front porch.  Dh said they look good.  I didn’t even go out to look.  I’m tired.   Since I’ve decided I’m never doing cut out cookies again, I’ve decided to turn some of my cookie cutters into ornaments.  I took a small stocking cutter and wrapped it with twine and daggum, my hands were sore after that!  I guess I just don’t use my hands in that sort of motion that often but I could only do one ornament and now I’m resting my hands.   It did turn out cute.

  8. Good afternoon!

    so far, I’ve cleaned out the junk drawer, put up containers in the pantry for better organizing, and worked on a new cat house for our two semi-ferals who’ve started letting me hold them.  So maybe they’re not so semi-feral anymore, idk.  One still acts like he doesn’t know me half the time, lol.   Anyway, I try to make them warm during winter and I’ve been working on a new box to try out.   Supper will be tater tot casserole for dh.

  9. We’re doing our big family Christmas on Christmas Eve at lunch.   I’m doing a taco bar.   That’s what ds and his gf chose.     Dh and I will probably grill steak for our Christmas Day meal.

    A few Christmases ago, we bought him one of those. He loved it so much that the next Christmas he bought one for each family within our larger family unit. LOL DH has also fallen in love with it. Ask him for a battery and he can't wait to jump up and grab that case of batteries.

    My mom texted me after I gave it to him and said my dad couldn't wait to play with his new battery organizer after I left.  I guess I know where I get my love of organizing from.  🤣

  11. Got half of the inversion table put together.   I worked on it with my beagle and we can both safely say, it kicked our behinds.    Dh will have to help me put the actual thing you lay on on the top.  I can't hold it and put screws in at the same time.   He's grabbing supper.   I'll cook something tomorrow for the big game.   
    ds22, who had his wisdom teeth out on Wednesday is probably going back to work tomorrow.  Other than swelling, he's fine!  I can't believe it.    This is a kid who has the worst time with any illnesses or health stuff, and somehow he got by unscathed with his wisdom teeth, thank you Jesus!

  12. I'm so sorry, knitgirl.    Last year there was a thread by another poster whose dh had lost his job, as well.   I bookmarked that thread because we could end up in the same boat, too, one day and it had useful info in it.   I'm linking it below.   Hopefully it will be of some help to y'all, too.  Praying for your family...  💛
