That is perplexing, Hil!

I saw the new RBG movie with a friend and then had soup dumplings. And now it's not yet 6pm but feels much later

We would get gelt and a dreidel in our stockings, the story was that Santa would pick them up in Israel from one of our honorary aunties... but we were decidedly Christian people.

That is odd Hil.

Last night Scrappy emerged from whatever pocket dimension he hid in. I swear we looked everywhere a cat could hide. I'm headed back home today from Matthew's. As soon as I get home I'm taking muscle relaxer. Tonight I get to see E and my Dad and tomorrow we have Christmas.

He heats up all of the leftovers, tries it, doesn't like it, and throws it all out.

Grrrr, I hate waste like that.

Follow up to happily report that #1 son was in good humor and sociable for a very extended Christmas day family gathering. No incidences! Considering his tooth pain I was delighted. We both told him he could stay home or escape to a bedroom at BIL's house if he wasn't up for it, but he socialized with all including tossing football with the kiddos.

Turns out I cast unnecessary aspersions on the kid. Sort of. He didn't want to try it, so he lied and said he did and threw it out. Someone found it at n the garage fridge this morning. A win, I guess :)

Yay! Also, it doesn't work out to try and make kids (or adults) eat stuff they don't like.

E is here and today has been rough I can't leave because I'm still taking msucle relaxers so I can't drive. The house is not sound proofed so I can hear more than I want. It's too small for hour people and then the 2 neighbor kids came over and I about melted down. I did not.

I have mostly survived. But I'm a over stimulated and just want to be alone for a while but I have no idea when that will be this is probably the last time I get to spend with E for awhile and I'm kn my bedroom because he wanted to see a movie and Home Alone got 3 votes so they are watching it and I am not.

I don't like the movie but the last thing I need to watch right now is a movie with so much chaos a kid gets left behind at home.

So I feel like a shitty aunt

We did have our Christmas and that was nice. I gave ideas for Xmas but some how I ended up with the new Harry Potter universe books from my brother. I liked Harry Potter ok but I would have rather had things off my wish list. I'll read them.

But E picked out and bought a nice soap doe me and Dad got me some books I like so it's all good. Mom got me stuff.

I just haven't felt very Christmasy and feeling muzzy headed from the medicine isn't helping. My shoulder feels a lot better.

My notorious RBG got here...she's sitting with action figure Bernie and Warren.(I hope they are like Toy Story and they fix the world while I am in bed at night, but that might be a lot to ask for $20.)

erika, my kitty kept knocking my Hillary Clinton off the TV stand where she was living. I asked the kitty if he was a Berner, but I suspect he might be a Libertarian. Anyway, I moved Hillary to the top shelf of the bookshelf, where she hangs out next to the Farscape action figures. Hilz and D'Argo are pals, which is pretty surreal.

but I suspect he might be a Libertarian.

Isn't Murdertarian a political affiliation?
