Random DIY mixing and More

[FranC]

Good late morning random folks and merry Christmas eve. I've been doing odds and ends today. I walked 1 mile on the treadmill, scooped poop, took out the trash, did The Laundry, and put presents in the truck. Enough's enough. Maybe I can get in a nap today because it's gonna be a long night. I have Christmas at my brother's followed by midnight Mass. Tomorrow Santa Claus comes for Misty, if she's a good kitty today.

Good afternoon, Terri. I see you've been busy again.

Merry Christmas Eve.

It’s great that you’re sticking with the walking. It’s so easy to not exercise. Speaking from experience here. I got in a good workout this morning. I was able to run 5/8 of a mile and walk another half. I’m slowly building back up to running. Along with that I do some of my PT exercises still and some weights. I can’t tell you how good it feels to be able to run again without intense leg pain. I would have never guessed it was sciatica had I not gone to the doctor.

You did good.

Well, I got the gift card from UPS. The 2 things from usps will come after Christmas.

Nothing here yet. Our mailman has been delivering after dark.

Hoping the mugs might come today.

I'll cross my fingers for that.

Can you track the package on the Amazon website? If it indicates "out for delivery", it's rare that you won't get it.

Doesn’t look like it’s going to happen.

The Amazon tracking hasn’t updated in three days but the usps site showed it made it to the depot yesterday. I just checked and it says arrived at the depot yesterday and today says accepted. Still says it’s coming today but 8 but doesn’t say out for delivery so I’m guessing it won’t come today.

You're probably right, but there's a slight chance it will, very slight.

Headed to my iPad and tv.

Good late afternoon random folks. My old large Christmas tree wasn't working, not a single light would light up, so I tossed it and ordered a new tree. The first one didn't arrive after a week and then I got an email from Amazon stating that it was going to be another week and still may not arrive. I canceled that order and ordered another which arrived today. I've got it up and mostly decorated, but of course, Misty saw it as a giant new cat tree. I had bought a cat deterrent spray which did nothing to stop her. I had just put my breakable ornaments on top, but it looks like I'll have to remove them all together. I got a bunch of plastic ornaments from my mother. I've been reading, and one suggestion was to put up a second tree that the cat is allowed to climb. I do have a smaller tree, so I'll try that

We will be having a quiet Christmas at home tomorrow. Friday we are doing a Christmas meal for the family. 10 people on the list so far. Some prep work and cooking tomorrow to lighten the load on Fri morning. One of the visitors is a 2 year old GGS who hasn't been here before. Seen him at his place and he's rather energetic and needs constant watching.

LOL. That's life in my house, except only one cat and no snow.
