It's wrong that I hear you got fried chicken from Gus's and immediately think of Breaking Bad, isn't it?
It's better than my association with Gus and New Year's Eve, -t.
I'm glad your face has healed, Scrappy.
This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Glad that your face is healed, Scrappy.
Today was a bit better of a day, starting with Mr. S sleeping until 8:30 this morning after going to sleep at his usual time. Of course, he spent most of the day on his tablet....Tomorrow school starts up again(virtually for this week at least.)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Timelies! Today has been quiet - we took down the tree, to Peanut's great dismay, and I luxuriated in the last day of M's vacation. Peanut doesn't go back to school until Tuesday, but I'll treat tomorrow like a school day anyway, just to get her back in the swing of it.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Best of all, we discovered accidentally by driving by, one of my favorite stores, Cost Plus World Market, only a few miles from here. I thought they were only on the West Coast, so I never even bothered looking to see if one was nearby.
There was one in Cordova, TN until a few years ago. That's where I bought my current sofa (praying the whole drive home that I wouldn't have to brake suddenly and end up being forced through the windshield by it).

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
So wiped out. Church, dishes, trash, vacuuming, drinks cabinet, a bit of work on the filthy hardwood floors, and totally cleaned 3/4 of the living room windows--panes, blinds, sills (all the way around, including up top) and screens. And then the one guinea pig I wanted to cuddle darted out of my grasp and hid in a corner! All I ask of either of them is a cuddle every now and then, and I'm thwarted. Too bad for her I have just enough energy left for one last clutch--got her!

I'm sure you applied your magic cosseting skills upon her, and she was gentled.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Matilda's friend Mia is watching "Howl's Moving Castle" and I've never heard anybody (a) so in love with a character ("I love him with my whole heart!") and (b) somebody say "No, no! No!" so many times whenever Howl was in danger. Like his jeopardy was unbearable to the 15th power.

Is that a thing they've said they'll do, mear? That seems as wrong as us not getting anything after we filed in 2020.
Cindy, no, supposedly they won’t take it back, even though they say they’ll retroactively give it to folks who made less in 2020. But I don’t really trust it....I researched a bit and there wasn’t really much about it (a rather less common situation) but since everything seeemed to agree it wouldn’t get taken back, I donated it all to a few places. If I do have to pay it back, so be it, I’ll just be irked, but having a bit of extra charitable donation won’t kill me or anything.
I don’t, however, really want to get up and work tomorrow. A week and a half off has been v nice.
