I went back to bed for a while. Nice! Now I’m all cleanded up and have chikin boobs coolin’ down from their cookage (plus chikin broth for da freezer). The boobs shall be turned into a chikin pie to take to the church house tomorrow bein’ as tomorrow is first Sunday brunch and the annual Parish meetin’ where we elect three members to the Vestry and will vote on some proposed changes to the by-laws a couple of which I have questions about as to why they need changin’. Gonna be a loooooooong day at the church house tomorrow. Oh, and I made a gallon each of sweet and unsweet tea. Go Me!

**{{{rosie}}}** hope you feel better soonest.

Well, I can see a major conflict with \*\*FCD \*\*having his desk by mine - he likes to play music and videos. I like quiet. I may need to get noise-canceling headphones…

\*\*flytrap \*\*- he doesn’t like headphones, or earbuds, hence the conflict. So far, I’ve just asked him to turn the volume down. Silence is beautiful!!

A baseball bat or a two by four might come in handy. I suggest you keep one next to your desk. 😃

WiFi does reach the basement, but he’s got so much other crap down there, he had no space for a computer: lathe, mill, welder, plasma cutter, CNC router table, 2 bandsaws, table saw, planer, jointer, shaper, grinder, tumbler, radial arm saw, drill press, plus multiple work benches and shelving units…

Boys and their toys, you know. 😉

Last load of laundry, for today, is in the dryer. I’ve got 2 sets of sheets to be washed, but no rush on them. I’ll probably do them tomorrow.

Now, what to do for supper?

Starting off a new year with a bout of depression fucking sucks.

That is all.

{{{Midget}}}

Just got back from seeing _The Big Short_ and while I don’t usually like horror movies, this is a good one (and if the ending monologue doesn’t scare the hell out of you…) without a drop of blood or screaming.

That’s two days into the new year and two movies in the theatre. I think I’ll skip Sunday.

Tonight is the Parish Epiphany partay. It is held at the home of a member(s) that is/are brave enough to host. We are bein’ anti-social and not attendin’. I didn’t feel like makin’ anything (everyone brings a munchie to share and his/her own drinks) plus it would have meant puttin’ on grown up clothes which neither one of us could muster up the desire to do. So we are snug inside da cave on a chilly evenin’. NICE!

**{{{Midget}}}** I can empathize. A bout of depression doth well and truly suck. This I know all about.

I’m so excited!! I just found out that [Galavant](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3305096/?ref_=nv_sr_1) season 2 starts tomorrow! I didn’t even know there would be a season 2. I thought the first season was a hoot, so I’m really psyched for this!

Doesn’t take much to make me happy. 😃

And on that silly note, I think I’ll log off and assume the recline position.

Anyone want a cat? Long hair, soft as a rabbit, very sweet with those she knows, but shy around strangers. Oh, yes, I should mention that as of a week ago she pees, well, everywhere. In chairs, on the floor, in the dogs beds. Stoopit cat. :mad:

{{{Midget}}} I hear ya. Depression sucks.

We shall retire to the boudoir to watch teevee and stuff until sleepy time. I need my beauty rest. After all, I do have to bake a casserole in the mornin’! 😃
