Afternoon.
After a careful review of all the cooking I've done since last Thursday, Skywise has ordered me to veg as much as possible today and I'm not going to argue with him. I need to get started on the mountain range of laundry that's built up over the last week or so but that isn't terribly labor intensive. I can throw a load into the washer and crash until it goes in the dryer.  Smiley Then more crashing..
Moonie has already decided what leftovers she'll be having for dinner tonight and Spirit will let me know later.

I crashed first.
All the Christmas wrapping supplies including what we bought today are now packed up and back up in the Old House. I've washed a few dishes -- and will wash a few more later -- and a HUGE load of wash is in the washer. It will be followed with another huge load and maybe a smaller load or two if there's time to get everything dry or at least in the dryer.

Around sunset, Spirit made a nice little bonfire and I pitched in by adding some fuel to it. I was reminded of the one time we went to the Indianapolis Zoo during its annual Christmas at the Zoo. There was a bonfire and hot chocolate was served. It was a nice winter memory and I hope I'd have hot chocolate next to a bonfire again.

As soon it got dark, I helped Spirit put out the fire by dumping water on it. I stayed to make sure that there were more burning embers before coming back to the house.

Give me a little warning next time and I'll see what I can do about some hot chocolate.

Skywise is on his way home and I'm heading out. I still have three loads of laundry to hang up. Yeah, I didn't get much vegging done today.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley  Smiley

Afternoon.
And the next day it rained. A lot.
We did our usual Thursday stuff in the rain. At least almost everyone is suffering from "Shopper's Fatigue" and the store was nearly deserted -- relatively speaking. It's a short week this week for Skywise which is good. We're still not back to our "normal" routine.
Now to get caught up.

You weren't kidding about the store almost deserted! The toys section is in a disarray from the Christmas shopping! At least the grocery aisle is well-stocked. Yes, I did see the Rosé drink that Dad talked about earlier. Pink grapes do sound interesting.

I'm hoping things get back to normal soon.

I hope so too, Firstborn.
I am currently converting the leftover roast beef into pulled/chopped beef bbq. We will have lunch makings for days. That was a big roast....

Afternoon.
It was paycheck day so off to the bank we went. Shopped and had lunch.
The Pullman bread pans I was expecting arrived a day early so I'll probably start experimenting with bread baking next week. These babies are real "heavy duty" so I expect them to last my lifetime and Moonie's as well.

I got prone and had a solid nap. I'm slowly getting over my exhaustion. It's taking longer than I'd like but I'm not as young as I used to be --DAMN IT!!!!

Skywise has called.
He has the whole weekend off.  Smiley
Since my knees are hurting like hell, I'm going to head out, take aspirin and get prone.

Everyone sleep well and be safe.  Smiley  Smiley

Afternoon.
We did the usual Saturday stuff after which, I took an apparently much needed nap. I just got up and it's time to get busy.

Evening.
Sorry I didn't sign out last night. I was very tired.
I still am, as a matter of fact.
We saw Aquaman today Smiley and I crashed as soon as we got home. I woke up just a few minutes ago. The girls apparently crashed too and are currently sound asleep.

Afternoon.
It's been raining like hell but I think it's stopped for the moment. Now to get caught up on this New Year's Eve.

It's New Year's Eve.
It's 60 degrees with a Wind Advisory.
The wind is getting on my nerves as it always does.
I wish Skywise was home.....

Just heard a "boom".
I hope it wasn't anything serious, like a tree falling on the Old House...

Skywise won't be home by midnight. He's working and he hasn't called yet. *sigh*
It will be midnight somewhere when he gets home....

Shortbread cookies are finally out of the oven -- thank you Moonie! -- just in time to get started on dinner prep...  Smiley
