Happy Sunday all. Got up later (blurfed later?) than I’d expected. I really should stop doing stuff like that.
Must make cookies soon.
Jews don’t believe anything in particular about Jesus. He lived his life as each person does. Beyond that, we really don’t give it much thought
Happy Solstice, y’all. I will not be joining in the festivities as I have Come Down with Something.
Happy Sunday!
Happy Winter Solstice Day!
It’s grey and cold outside, just one degree above freezing.
As soon as Sah-son wakes we are out of here.
Then we have to come back on Thorsday.

Back from breakfast in Leonardtown. We also stopped by the credit union so I could deposit a check my daughter sent me - she owed me mega bucks (OK, not quite that much) and the check came yesterday. So it’s been ATM’d.
My bro asked me to do a veggie platter for Christmas brunch. I agreed to dump a can of peas, a can of corn, and a can of green beans on a plate. OK, I’ll do a proper veggie tray, but the mental image of canned veggies made me giggle. Yes, I am easily amused. That’s why I hang with youse peoples!!!
Turkey is out to finish thawing. Butter is out to soften. Kitchen time will begin soon.
Up and caffeinated. Cleaning nd football today.
Frawgs collected!
Had a bit of a close one on the way down- an accident happened right in front of me; a six car pile-up (actually 5 and a lorry), just a few cars ahead. No-one was hurt, luckily (a nice lady went round and told everyone, while we were all stationary waiting for the road to be cleared), but at least two of the cars looked like write offs. I think a trailer came loose and swerved into another lane. Could have been far worse.
Everyone drive safe this Christmas, OK?
I then got paranoid that my car was making odd noises on the way back, then realised… Box 'o frawgs? Frawgs that make little squeaky trilly noises? :smack:

ruble, I had to look Simon Girty up. For whatever reason, I was thinking he might be a reprobate hockey or baseball player who came from our northern neighbors to play for a Pittsburgh team.
Happy Solstice, y’all!
SIL and I are going to see It’s a Wonderful Life on the big screen today, a first for both of us.
Howdy Y’all! Home from deheathenization and N.O.L. has been ingested. I grilled extra burgers last night and sliced up some N.O.T. this mornin’ for fries. When we got back to da cave, I heated up oil and did the fries. Burgers were then nukulated. Easy and simple just like the way I like my men!
Also, I finally got around to pluggin’ in and settin’ up the phones for my land line. I’d been usin’ an old system and even though I had charged up the new ones, hadn’t gotten around to pluggin’ the main phone into the line. Also I hadn’t bothered to set date and time or the message on the new system. Got that done. GO ME!
{{{Spaz}}} feel better soonest. Here’s Soft Kitty.
OYKW is takin’ a nap. I may go join him. 'Tis gloomy and drizzly out which makes for good weather for nappage.
Laterz!
The turkey is rotissing. Last pan of cookies are baking. Whew - domesticity is exhausting!!!
Within an hour (on a Sat!) I received the following reply:
*Sir, I appreciate you taking the time to explain your interaction today with my company. We take safety every serious at A___ and I assure you we will investigate and address your concerns you have outlined below with our employees involved.
My apologizes for your interaction today in this unsafe situation you have described.
Thank you and happy holiday. *
Of course, when I left my house at dark-thirty, just a few minutes after this post, it was still an hour+ away from twilight, let alone sunrise. Coming home I was really missing my sunglasses, which were in a jacket that I didn’t wear today.
It’s been sunning for several hours!
Not a sunny Solstice here. Rainy, gray, icky and 52 out. Oh well, 'tis toasty warm in da cave.
Spidey cool on the response. Sounds like they even understood your complaint.
Beast stew and cornbread shall be dindin. Just the thing for a cool and icky day.
Oh and OYKW is spendin’ the night. I get to snuggle up with a furry blankie tonight.
The house smells turkey-licious! And I baked 5 sweet N.O.T.s and 6 dozen oatmeal cookies. Most of the cookies are going to work with **FCD **tomorrow for his work luncheon - I’ll be surprised if some don’t come home with him.
The stoopit sun is going down - it’ll be dark soon. But starting tomorrow, we’ll gain a bit more daylight every day… Huzzah!!
My sinuses are clearer, but I still feel icky. I’m supposed to do a Charity Thing for irk tomorrow afternoon, but if I don’t feel any better I’m going to text Squirrel AGM and cancel.
In the USA, folks get out to gawk, and some nefarious fellow goes about swiping their stuff.
Turkey got done sooner than I expected. Shortly, the cabbage will be done, and we shall dine. Yum!
Beast stew and cornbread have been ingested. ‘Twas nummy if’n I do say so myself. I have a Sonny’s gift card that we haven’t used, so tomorrow we shall dine upon bbq. OYKW is leavin’ out Tuesday mornin’ for the wilds of west Alabammy to spend Crimmus with his family. I’m headin’ up to Ye Olde Hometowne Wednesday to spend Crimmus with my family. He plans on headin’ back on Sattidy, and I will head back on Firday. That’s our big holiday plan.
Now, he’s gettin’ ready to have him a soak in the whirlpool tub. He’ll be all squeaky clean for later use.
