I got a shirt in the mail today that I did not order. I asked my Mom if she sent it to me. She said yes, Merry Christmas. It's a red and black buffalo plaid shirt from LL Bean. So my mom sent me a dyke shirt, lol. I like it.

I just spent an hour and a half on the phone with a new friend!
Happy dance! :danceparty: |
Made You Smile Today
Had my final phone call from my brother who will be heading here soon. We are going to dinner and stage performance this evening. (got the tickets). I also did him a stocking of lots of things he likes. Probably hasn't had one since he was a boy. I can't wait to see his face after the show. Smiling ear to ear all day.

My surgery date being set. Helps me feel like I can get this over with soon. Before New Year's at least.

Yesterday, finally seeing Chicago Magazine in my mailbox... |
Taking a long neighborhood walk today and seeing my street in full on Autumn. The sidewalks and lawns are carpeted with leaves so thick and the crunch sound walking through them. The trees have finally changed and there are those that are now yellow, orange, rust, and red. Autumn is slow to come to north Texas and she doesn't last very long. If you blink you miss it but if you don't blink, you get to see so much. It's just beautiful right now.

Smile Today
I just got an email from amazon that my delivery for the last of the Xmas for the little one will come tomorrow. I know she will love what she is getting as it is what she asked santa for.

Smile Today
The book I ordered on my favorite singer was delivered today (she's Canadian). Time to read and read LOL.
|
My smile continues from yesterday's interview where I was hired for a job that I REALLY wanted - to which I will start at next Monday. I have a feeling 2022 is going to be a really good year and I am going to my best to make it so.

Our Great-Grandson who is 7 months old and absolutely adorable :baby::baby:

Wanting something warm and not up for cooking, wondering what to eat, opening up the refrigerator and remembering J sent home leftovers last night– yes!!!
|
Package deliveries . . . plural! Christmas gifts from both of my sisters {UPS and USPS} the bag I bought yesterday {Fedex} and some hard to find Urban Decay Lipstick {USPS}. I'd say, "It's like Christmas!" but it is! So much fun keeping all the delivery drivers busy in my neighborhood!

Seeing my new great niece in person, cant hold her yet because her parents are being very paranoid, imo, about certaing things.
Um if everyone is vaccinated there shouldnt be a problem? Rolls eyes |
Seeing 90 yr old Mrs M this afternoon as I came home from work. She had her trusty wagon, pulling it along. Full of groceries. I could only hope to live to be her age and healthy and resilient and still so independent.

actually yesterday..
My heart was filled with so much joy after I volunteered to wrap presents for the Cops n Kid's toy drive. I bet I wrapped 30 presents. Barbies, footballs, skate boards, clothes, those pop it things. I was just imagining the kids faces when they unwrapped the gifts. My heart was overjoyed. And then...I shared a wrapping table with a woman who came from my hometown area. Boy did we chat it up. I believe we are going to be really good friends! A friend to hang out with. I'm smiling twice as much now! |
Reading my rep messages about my surgery. Thank you.

Kalamazoo Hockey Team Paints Ice Rainbow
Kalamazoo Hockey Team Paints Ice Rainbow
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3dGrlbvhP5I Home ice for the Kalamazoo Wings was dyed a different color on Friday. The K-Wings said the game against the Toledo Walleye is the first professional hockey game on rainbow ice. “In partnership with the NHL for Hockey is for Everyone,” Toni Will, K-Wings general manager, said. Will said the initiative and the rainbow-colored ice opened the doors for fans and players to open their minds. “Hockey truly is for everyone, it doesn’t matter your race, your religion, your sexual orientation,” said Will. Fans said its a creative way to show inclusivity and diversity being celebrated in the sport. “It means we’re kind of progressing, being able to show equality in ice and representing that-- is really cool,” said Madison Hayes. “Hockey really is for everyone, I play with a lot of people that come from a lot of different backgrounds, it’s a great sport and its very accepting,” said Jeff Masternak. The rainbow ice game was the first of five times the ice will be colored at Wings Event Center during the K-Wings season. The next one is set for Feb. 11 when the ice will be dyed pink. The K-Wings are famous for the team's colored ice games, and always draw big crowds. The team is encouraging fans to mask up with coronavirus infections spreading rapidly in Michigan. “I feel like it’s really not that big of a deal to have something over your face, so other people can enjoy things and live life the normal way,” said Hayes. “We’re aware of everything that’s happening, we trust that the messaging we’re putting out there, of telling people, come wear your mask-- it’s going to be safe, they’re coming at their own risk,” said Will. https://wwmt.com/news/local/k-wings-...s-for-everyone |

I fit into a pair of Vera Wang size 8 pants today. Granted, there was more spandex in them than Botox in Los Angeles and I looked like sausage in a casing but, dammit, I fit into them. They were pulled ALLLL the way up, buttoned and zipped and everything. I could breathe just fine and the seams weren't even stretched out!
Those of you who have never struggled with weight or body issues may not recognize the significance of this, but it's a big deal for me. :poc-shocked: <---this was my face at first :nixon: <--- then this face :hk13: <--- then this face Some days, it's the little things.... |

Congrats! Definitely a smile you earn. I'm proud of you! I had a size jump at Christmas myself. I love my new jeans. |

I'm having more of those moments, which always seem to catch me by surprise and definitely make me smile. Congrats on your size jump!!! It's a wonderful feeling to go, oh, I guess I need new pants because THESE aren't working anymore. Not for the pocketbook, but a good feeling for the soul. |
Watching videos and looking at pictures with my son of my grandson's birthday party. He's so adorable and I'd love to share pictures of him, show him off, but of course I can't because of all the perves and peepers and freaksters out there. So you'll just have to trust me on this he's gorgeous!!!

What made you smile today
The kids are on their way here. Should be about an hour and a half. I haven't seen them since last year. The little one will get a second Xmas when she gets her stocking and gifts lol. Kids don't care for time or dates but they love unwrapping gifts. I can't wait for them to get here. Smile, smile, smile.
|
The love and care of my sweet darling Rico and the awesome care I receive from my health care team. :stillheart:
|
So cute (my new kitten wants her own bed)
|
Smile today
I was up before the crack of dawn and out shopping by 7a.m. Happy and smiling cause my food is put away and the huge snowstorm we are suppose to get with freezing rain can come on in, this butch is ready.
|
Knowing that this is my last year as a single tax payer. Next year Rico and I will do our taxes together, as Married Filing Jointly. :cheer:
|
seeing baby birds in a nest being feed by Mama bird. It's at work, so, I'll see and hear the often😊🎶🐣
Oh yeah...turning in paperwork and such for my taxes this year! Oh hello Florida, lol. |
Finishing up with inventory and realizing I have met my first goal. I might not have exactly what I want but I have what I truly need and the peace of mind that comes along with having it. It was such a sense of satisfaction, stepping back taking a look at my work and seeing how much I've accomplished. It put a huge smile on my face.
|
Someone - who used to be a little girl but who is practically all grown up now - called me "ules jay" today. It made me smile big to think she remembers our old pig latin days.
|
Finding a note here from a friend saying they were thinking of Me. Pretty cool given I have not stopped in for awhile.
|
April Fool's

Smile today.
Big smile here. That is my kind of humor, harmless and funny. Especially love the rock thing, that is too clever.

Smile Today
Checked my mailbox and got my 3 movies I ordered.
Joker Carol Promising Young Woman Smile *SSS |
I got good things in the mail today too, both sets of pillowcases I ordered, each in great shape. One set is vintage, brand new still in its original packaging and all that I hoped it would be. The other was made by a work from home/stay at home mom and she did a really good job.

A Stephen Hawking strand of thought, which I came across today:
There is a fundamental difference between religion -which is based on authority, and science -which is based on observation and reason. Science will win because it works. ~ Stephen Hawking. |
I was told today I was the most patient customer he had talked to all day. Ok, probably says that to everyone, but still, I should have taken a screenshot. When does anyone ever call me patient, lol.
It's amazing how many times Infinity can screw up my new service before my internet is even activated. It's been a huge nightmare but everyone I talk to is nice and tries to help. They sent my equipment to the wrong address, scheduled a technician even though I'm doing self-install, canceled my service and had to set up my account again, and the self-installation app was not working at all. Other than that it's been great. Fingers crossed it works. I need the internet for all my work. |
What made you smile today?
I slept in the night omg, wonderful. I know its going to be a good day cause I woke up. LOL. Not much sleep but better than a kick in the butt with a frozen mukluk.

That I finally remembered my log-in details
