 Tuesday - early

As stated, I will not start looking for a new job until after the New Year.  I don't have the desire to do that right now. I really don't have the desire to start yet another new job, but this one isn't panning out.  

Christmas was quite lovely.  We didn't get up particularly early, which was amazing in itself that the kids didn't get up at the "buttcrack of dawn" as Taylor put it lmao.  One of them did come barging into my room around 7:30 am telling me to get up and "Come on! Come on! aren't you coming?!!"

We had fun opening presents and then going for the traditional Christmas breakfast at IHOP.  After eating there, I wasn't really hungry for most of the rest of the day, only eating a little shrimp and some crackers with cheese and summer sausage later on.  

The total bill for this 2 day feast fest? 4 pounds.  I really didn't go that crazy excepting yesterday afternoon I did, indeed, make myself a chocolate milkshake. I would have gone to Diary Queen for a blizzard, but they, like most of the town, were closed.  And I ate potatoes.  A lot of potatoes on this 2 day, eat-whatever-you-want thing.  It's ok, I'm fully back on Keto today and won't even take my first bite of food until this afternoon. 

The grandma is here with the oldest child.  She is, allegedly, leaving this morning and coming back next weekend to get him.  We are going on Saturday evening to a fireworks show that is going to take place downtown. It's a first for this town as far as I know it, they don't even allow fireworks in this city, they must have received a permit to do so and obviously, it would have to be pro's doing it.  We have reserved a spot at a local brewery on their rooftop. IT just opened a few weeks ago during a Christmas parade that was going on around the local square and therefore, right in front of it.  They will have, easily, the best view of the fireworks in the entire town.

Alas, my time has run out.  I actually feel like writing in my blog this morning, unfortunately I don't get up too too early for going to work. I find that 5:45 am is about as early as I can stomach it.  So, with that? I bid you a Good day.  

 Friday late-morning Typical morning when there is no work.  It was, I should say, until the new guy called.  "There's nothing wron...
