For the ponies, anyway. Tess liked hers a lot. I guess the boys drooled all over Gary. We at breakfast late, went out and fed the barn crew, cleaned stalls, came back in and napped some more, or at least I did. Gary changed aquarium water during part of that. Then we ate lunch, and after that played with the new train stuff for a while, figuring out some small pieces that we still need and finding that yes, the switches and crossovers do work.
Then it was time to feed everyone again and put them to bed. I made golubki (stuffed cabbage leaves) for Christmas dinner. Now it's almost time for dessert and bed. Hmm, dessert. Pound cake and fruitcake left from yesterday, plus cookies and two sweet breads we were gifted. Requires a decision I guess.
After yesterday, the quiet today has been most welcome. I can hear myself think, there's no particular pressure to get anything much done, and it was nice and sunny outside but cold enough that I didn't want to go out. Hope you all had a nice day, whatever kind of day that is for you.
Tomorrow is a "freebie" since there's still no work. We may go shopping, or not. Many places we might go will probably not be open, while the big chain stores will be open but frenzied. Have to see how we feel in the morning.
Oh, yes, and our nutty little duck gifted us with not just one, but TWO eggs today. That brings her up to 78 eggs in 78 days, since it makes up for the one day she really did skip. I'd use some to make a cake if we didn't already have a house full of stuff leftover.ho
