A day late but I lingered in bed with a coffee and watched the Mandalorian before getting busy working on my kitchen. I found some of the tiles not sticking well and a bit crooked so I redid them. When I moved one of the outlets it sparked at me and I had already had issues with them only working in one outlet, not both so I turned off the power, replaced or retired where necessary. When I turned the juice back on they all worked as they should. It is very satisfying to work with electrical and plumbing. I made sure the tile was done past the sink.
My advent was interesting again, but I must say the link my high school classmate sent me to Swarovski Crystal Star Wars items left me drooling.
Another friend cracked me up by suggesting the helmet should come with a man for me. I actually really like the Death Star so if anyone is looking for something to get me…. 😉
I was nearly late for the last Visit with Santa session because I had the power off and wasn’t really paying attention while tiling…. Again, it was so much fun and I enjoyed the time with Ash and Thom. All and all we made around 40 kids and quite a few adults very happy. I was happy to find out that this was Trevor Lundy’s idea. He left with a bombed out bridge from the theatre but he was still a big part of it’s success.
My 3 year old granddaughter, Emmy was one of the visits today and she cracked me up, especially when asked if she had been good. What a face!
When we were done I met Rae and we went for a walk. It wasn’t long before she let me know the decision had been made that Bill and Deanne would spend Christmas morning at Rae’s house and I would get together some way with Ken and Ashlée. I don’t think I had a very good reaction. I wanted to, I wanted to say that is a great choice, I am cool with it but I had an emotional gut reaction to being the only single and not getting to spend time with the kids. It’s not Fucking fair but it is what it is and I shouldn’t be any more special than anyone else in this stupid Covid world. I will be fine, I just wasn’t for a bit.
I came home and tried to connect the sink and tap set but didn’t get very far as I was experiencing vertigo when I raised my arms under the sink. I see the specialist tomorrow to begin a new barrage of tests. Hope we can narrow it down. Soon I will have a functional sink again which will help to get rid of the cooler full of dirty dishes!!
