I got up in time to clear out the cupboards in anticipation of the plumber coming at 4 to put lines in for the water conditioner. Now there are even more piles of stuff on my floor rather than in the cupboard. Headed off to work and was gifted a delightful combo by Keri. She knows me so well already!
The Huggie she gave Layla is awesome and suits her so well.
Accomplished many little things again today. Enjoyed time with people in the office as many of them won’t be back until next year. It is a time of much to do but also a time to take pause and enjoy the season. It is also satisfying to assist people by taking some of the troubles off their hands. My caramel popcorn twists were a big hit. I came home to meet the plumber at 4 and he let me know he couldn’t do anything until January 12th but after I told him I had planned the installation to make it easy he offered to come on the 30th as Culligan will be here on the 31st. That is very nice as he had planned not to work that week. He said if my dishwasher arrives he will hook it up as well.
I went to Walmart to get cat food and on the way stopped at Rae’s to drop off some of the twists. Got to enjoy the Grands for a bit and then headed to the store. I needed butter, cat food and containers for snacks. I spent a good amount of time in the toy department looking for something for Zoë. Found a few small things that should make her happy. Diane FaceTimed and invited me for dinner. I picked up garlic knots and Caesar salad. Also got a water reservoir dish and collar for Missy. Haven’t tried to put the collar on her yet… she is very friendly now and I think she meows to go out when she has to go to the bathroom which is odd as she uses her litter box. The Brick called while I was shopping to say my stove is being delivered on Monday!! Yay! She called it a Christmas miracle but i laughed and said the miracle would be if my dishwasher arrived by the 30th.
Some of the toys out this year are very interesting. I think it was a missed market that Holiday Barbie 2020 isn’t wearing a mask! Nice dodge of trademark, Space Swords…
Dinner was delicious as always and Diane and I had out coolest game of Patchwork yet. She won by 7 buttons. It was a lot of fun. After dinner we watched that favourite Christmas movie, Die Hard, I didn’t remember a lot so it was all new. I liked it!
Came home to open my advents and watch young Sheldon. I enjoy it’s quirkiness. Must make some headway on my place this weekend so I can concentrate on files for the rest of the year. All in all a lovely day.
