What a day for a daydream, dreaming about no work at all, after all the work we did yesterday, maybe I should just say good morning to you.
Yesterday was a do nothing but work day. The first thing I accomplished was to get the angel reactivated so the neighbor lady would know where she was, when she came home after dark. Then I went to the shed and removed everything that was between me and the Christmas decorations, such as lawn mower, ladder, chop saw with stand and empty totes.
I began the task of taking items to the garage, segregating them in the garage in groups such as, plastic items like Santa Clause, totes with decorations in them, containers with extension cords and stakes, trees, and boxes with decorations. There were multiple trips from the shed to the garage and I did leave some plastic items that go into the manger, in the back 40 next to the fence as the garage was, and is full.
I did have time for a sandwich for lunch about 30 minutes later than usual, then as my favorite wife started to put a Christmas tree together, I went out back and picked up sticks and other debris from the yard, and I also put items back into the shed. I also checked the heat lamps in the hot house to be sure they were working. I brought the four pieces of the manger to the drive way.
As the tree boxes and totes in the garage get emptied, I will then need to take them back to the shed. Never any rest for ole people.
Today I will attempt to clean the two sides, one top and one back of the manger and then put them together. This manger is made from scrap wood. Once it is together I will be allowed to place the plastic Mary, Joseph, baby Jesus and some plastic animals in and near the manger.
I am not sure if my favorite wife will be working on decorations inside the homestead our outside today, but I will be available to help after my naps.
I have a photo I took yesterday during all the excessive work; it is of a blooming flower that don’t know it is supposed to be fall.
I need to leave you for a while and go out into the freezing weather to get the grandkids and take them to school. It was 32 degrees in Waco last night, and it is still cold enough for a jacket this morning.
Ok, I am back and I got the grandkids to school safe and on time. Speaking of the kids, there is a concert at school tonight and it will be Christmas music.
Well, I guess I will stop for now so we hope you have a good day and stay safe in all you do.

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
