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!

It’s a bright and sunny morning here so far. It’s Thursday, and I only have another day off, and then it’s back to the grind of real life. The coffee has been brewed, and I’m mostly awake. Mostly. It was a pretty ok sleep. Like Crystal, I’ve been started to…

Good morning! Happy Monday Tuesday everyone! I’m awake, I woke up early, my fan was making weird sounds when it oscillated, so I shut that off and fell right back to sleep. I couldn’t even tell you what time it was. SlightlyBiggerTown was pretty good. Not a lot of things…

Four calling birds

December 4, 2023

Morning all. It’s been a morning already. I was fast asleep, until 6am. Then I was awake. Awake and very tossy turny. I couldn’t get comfortable, and then I was too hot, or too cold. Then I started to get anxious. My mind said, you’ve been doing so well at…
