Up early-ish today to try to get the Turtlebeach Velocity controller for MS Flight Sim. I nudged Jim via text around 8:30 to be sure we were both sitting at our desks ready to refresh the site at 9AM.
Got it! Sending it directly to B.'s apartment in Clarksville and it should be there within 7 days. He is super excited and so are we - it was like the Christmas' of the past where we would do everything we could to get the boys whatever they coveted for Christmas.
I've had two nights of pretty decent sleep and the major change is ramping up the heat a bit. It has been taking me forever to feel warm and if there's no warm 'snuggle factor' engaged, I can't sleep. Adjusting the heat seems to have helped because I have had two nights of some of the deepest sleep I've had in ages.
So we started the day with a mission - success! Now on to other missions. It's a cold, cloudy day here - it's 38 degrees outside and rain is in the forecast for later today and across this week. We have a lot to do for outside Christmas decorations - though J. did get the light projectors set up and working out front and put the new penguin cutouts across the front yard. We still need to put the lights on the back fence and we have a ton of spiral trees to place. We're thinking we might put them in the planter boxes along the driveway and also just outside the back fence. Yes, they'd be on the golf course - but on a part of the course that's just dirt - nothing growing but weeds (which J. has spent a lot of time removing).
The tree box is on the hand cart ready to be moved into the house so we can start decorating. We've already got some of our indoor decor items set up and it's starting to feel festive.
Our neighbors are home. J. noticed on Friday morning that the window shutters in their guest room were closed. We noticed they were open and had pondered if someone had been there. (Their two kids live in the area so it was possible). Anyway....upon seeing someone had closed the shutters in that room, we were pretty sure they were 'home'. Confirmed a couple days ago via text. I shared with G. the pic of my Grand jackpot and she was super happy for me. She's won multiple Grands...so that's my next 'bucket list' item - more Grand jackpots!!
I have a doctor appointment later today for a pneumonia vaccination (hopefully). Also a recheck of my ongoing sinus issues with a possible referral to an ENT.
Haircut tomorrow. Atlantis on Wednesday. The week will fly by. And before we know it, it will be Christmas and then NYE! (I'm really looking forward to NYE).
