Well, you've read the notes, the notes barely had a modicum of joy for the reasons noted in the notes, and now it is time for you to post until the joyful cows come home.

I had a very good night of sleep. Stella hopped into bed with me at 9:00, when I turned off the lights. I* woke a little after midnight for a bathroom break. At that time, Stella left and Thatch cuddled up with me. Some time later. Stella returned, and Annabelle showed up shortly before the alarm rang.

So, today Access-a-Ride will take me to my podiatrist, Quest Diagnostics, and home.

Vibes for us all. Or, as Tiny Tim would say, God bless us everyone.

Here’s an uplifting-ish story I edited for our mag about how Edmund “Kris Kringle” Gwenn’s ashes were lost for decades and finally located and given a proper resting place.

Q for BK, or anyone who’d care to answer. What are your favorite Christmas/holiday LPs?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #24 on:** December 20, 2023, 06:06:26 AM »

Good morning, all.

That’s something I haven’t had the chance to say in a few days:

“Morning” as opposed to “afternoon”.

Thanks for the link, DR Rodzinski. Will check it out later.

One more tonight. And I am dead tired. But I’m savoring the fact of sitting here at home this morning, enjoying some cinnamon raisin toast with my coffee.

Why is this controversial?
