Off to see Momma for Xmas Holidays...
Dec. 20th, 2022 09:59 pmWill be off the grid from 12/21/22 to 12/28/22 - off to see Momma. Mother doesn't have a computer any longer and I've chosen not to bring my laptop down with me. I think I need a break from the computer - or my eyes do. So, going off the grid so to speak.
1. ) Came home Monday to a mess - apparently a radiator pipe sprung a serious leak, two floors above me. ( Read more... )
2. Won $32 via NY Scratch Off Lottery. Two Co-workers gave me the scratch off cards for Xmas. Leo and JB, who helped me figure out what television to buy back in 2019. Leo helped me figure it out and went to claim it for me - he's such a sweetheart.

We're the same height and around the same size - so this hug worked. I didn't have to bend way over like I do with most folks, including Momma.
AM who was out today, took the time to send me a message via Linked In to wish me a Merry Xmas.

4. Off to Hilton Head tomorrow morning to spend the holidays with my mother. It's going to be cold tomorrow. And in Hilton Head. Bro nixed Hawaii and went to Montreal for the holidays instead for a few days.

Gabe (at work) was talking about how money doesn't go as far as it used to now.

5. Have a happy holiday, whatever you celebrate or just a peaceful and relaxing week, if you don't.
See you after the 28th.
