As usual for a Wednesday I spent the day cleaning. Also as usual, I picked up a few tasks as the day went on. But got everything done, including a load of laundry and taking the trash to the road. I also keep moving this snowman (from the Ninth Life Auction) around as I haven’t found the ideal place for him yet!

Roaming snowman…

Tonight was Don Wassel’s annual Wassel-ing party. He has it every year. Don was working at Smail Auto (Bud Smail Lincoln Mercury, actually!) when I started there in 1967. So we’ve been friends for a very long time. He just moved from a huge house up on the hill to a smaller, one-level house at the bottom of the hill. It’s a beautiful home, and you would not know it was smaller. But, as his wife Sharon says, THERE ARE NO STEPS!

I was even impressed with the rest room! Beautiful!

The only other people I knew well enough to chat much with were Dan and Gail Robertson. Dan also worked at Smail Auto and still does. We had a nice evening, chatting about life at Smail Auto! It was light hearted and comfortable — no ‘gossip’ stuff. Dan’s sister is deaf, and we chatted a little about that, as well. I have a little connection with that subject!!!

Since it’s later and I’m tired that’s it for today! Have a happy Thursday!

TOMORROW December 14th is:

National Alabama Day; National Bouillabaisse Day; Monkey Day.

Don’t think I’ll jump on any of those. I’ll just go to work and be happy! God bless….
