Boxing Day
Dec. 26th, 2024 10:31 pmWhich isn't a holiday celebrated in the US, but should be.
I slept until 12;30 and I don't feel guilty. I finally got up and had breakfast and coffee, and puttered online. Eventually I motivated myself to take a shower, and wash my hair, which really needed it. Then I tossed on sweats and a tee shirt and did nothing but putter online for several hours. I looked up the Starsky and Hutch story I started reading the other day and finished it. Very satisfying.
Around 5 or so I think, I motivated myself to do some work on the turtle tank which is in disgraceful condition. I took out two buckets of water, replaced them and took them out again, and finally put in three. I need to do more, I should change the water again tomorrow if I have time.
Anyway, after that I had a bit to eat, and puttered some more until I Skyped the FWiB at 7ish.
We talked until 8:30, when I called Middle Brother. He is fine, he listened to his CD and it's in good condition, the guy who sold it said it was mint, but you can't tell til you play it. And he had some of the sausage that he got for Christmas.
Then I had dinner, and went to the bedroom to play solitaire on my phone. Then I called the Kid and we talked a bit, I asked her to take me to the oncologist on January 8th. She said she'd check her calendar.
Then I texted
mashfanficchick and asked her to call me if she was free, and ze did so we talked awhile, about zer mother, and about New Year's Eve.
And then it was pet feeding time, so I fed the pets and started here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. A day to do almost nothing.
3. Middle Brother is well.
4. Happier turtle.
5. The Kid.
