And there’s a hand, my trusty fiere! And gie’s a hand o’ thine!

Shawshank, December 26, 2025

Good morning, my friends! Happy Boxing Day everyone. The Beautiful One (with an assist by Podrick), let me sleep in until 8:10. Thank you very much. Podrick is currently stalking Pippin.

I have to check if SlightlyBiggerTown will be open today. I’d rather do the grocery shopping, and all that fun stuff today, rather than do it after work tomorrow. So after I post I’ll go and make sure everything will be open.

It was a really good day yesterday. We went to the nursing home to have Christmas lunch with gramma. She was doing very well yesterday. It was overwhelming. You could tell she wasn’t used to so many people in the home. But exchanged presents with her, and did a video call to my aunt and cousin. Another resident came in and sat with us, and followed us to where we were going to have lunch. The residents daughter found her, and took her back to their little celebration area. We gave hugs and kisses to gramma, and we went home for a couple of hours.

A couple of hours later, we headed over to Shady Acres, to exchange gifts with my parents. The bulk of the gifts will arrive on Monday, so I’ll head up there again, after their other presents are wrapped. But more importantly, Crystal’s presents are in there, so those will get wrapped first! The kitties presents are in that package as well. They’ve been very good, so they’ll get them, sans wrapping paper.

I opened up a present from my parents, and I got a beautiful pair of moccasins. New slippers! And they’re so warm! Crystal got a pair of mukluks, and we both got an air fryer, which I’m sure we’ll use a lot!

Back to work tomorrow. Working the weekend. That’s the way the cards are played; easy week, and slowly get used to working the full week again. It shouldn’t be too bad.

But let’s get some more coffee before anything actually happens. Happy Boxing Day everyone!

“Haven’t you people ever heard of closing the goddamn door?”

October 30, 2025

So, last night, huh? Podrick was in rare form. He jumped up onto the counter and knocked over one of Crystal’s water cups. He broke the lid, so I dumped it out and put it in the sink. The little guy got up into the sink, and stole the straw. I got to be able…

Good morning, happy Saturday, Sunday, Monday. Yes, I think that it’s Monday. The weekend has been all messed up, time wise. It’s very confusing but I did wake up this morning thinking that it was Tuesday and I had to go back to work. I internally freaked out, because I don’t have clean clothes yet.…

This is my bohème, so drink it up, my friend

May 16, 2024

I’m awake, but I’m not liking it. I didn’t sleep great. My shoulder was bothering me. But I couldn’t breathe on one side. So I rolled over on to the bad shoulder. I usually sleep good on that side. I roll over, and then my shoulder just screams. So I roll back over and try…
