Today was a warmer day with a bit of sunshine in the afternoon. Even though I was inside, the sun coming through the windows seemed to brighten up the day. I took my time getting the cleaning done, listening to CD’s for a while, then turning on the tv downstairs for background noise. I listened to an old Christmas TV special with Kacey Musgrave. It was a little off in left field, but she has a really unique and impressive singing voice.

Scrubbed the basement floor again – never ending! – but I have a person coming on Monday to give me another diagnosis. Still waiting on info from the first guy. Two of the people I contacted promised to set something up – before Christmas. Still waiting. We’ll see what happens on Monday.

I also turned a movie on, which I think I saw many years ago, but it was also unique. Crazy for Christmas. It was fun to see something different.

Other than taking the trash up and getting the mail I didn’t go outside except to shake the rugs. So now I’m going to finish this then make a salad.

January 19th – Tell about a favorite Uncle. “My favorite uncle (besides Uncle Edd) was Uncle Charlie Crooks on my dad’s side & Uncle Fred on my mother’s side. They taught me many things. Uncle Charlie told us stories & took us places. Uncle Fred was just fun & he took us places also. I was Uncle Fred & Aunt Betty’s maid of honor at their wedding.”

Calendar inspiration: Many of your happiest childhood memories were in your own backyard. You still don’t have to go far to have fun.

Our childhood was playing outside, with neighbors and cousins – all four seasons!

Yesterday’s vacation destination was Chicago. Kath guessed correctly. The photo posted was the skyline, the Willis Tower. Things to do in Chicago might be (but not limited to!) River & Sunset Cruises, Gangster & Ghost tours, River Architecture Helicopter skyline tour, underground donut tour, Lincoln Park indoor skydiving and Lincoln Park zoo, trickery magic show, biking, Frank Lloyd Wright Robie House, Medieval torture museum, scavenger hunt, tall ships cruise, fireworks.
