Happy New Year!
Dear 2017,
Please don't suck moose dick.
Thanks for your cooperation,

So I am lying on my recliner, beneath a cat (Sammy, aka Junior Cat), wishing I had an affinity for dumb TV. My holidays have been ridiculously quiet, so it's not due to any raucous activities--I just have very little stamina. My big accomplishments of the week have been 1) just beginning to walk like a regular person when I'm in the house, where I can wear regular shoes. Out in the world I'm still using the boot and a crutch. 2) Managing to go to work 4 days in a row for 3 weeks in a row, and lately walking the hella long way to the bathroom at work 4 times in one day instead of needing the knee scooter.
Today I went to Madison, planning to see a couple of movies, but the timing was such that I made it to one, and didn't have the energy for 3 hours before the other one I wanted to see. I had lunch in the bar at the theater, thought about doing a couple of errands but both places were closed, so I came home. Madison is my preferred movie spot these days because they have recliners, and I'm all about having my foot up when I can. I finally saw "Rogue One," after a couple of weekends of wanting to get there to see it. Such goodness, having a capable heroine in yet another SW movie! And a diverse cast too.
It's almost like Hollywood is finally catching on that wimmins like movies!
Yesterday was my originally planned movie day, but I got a slow start, then my friend of 38 years called and we talked for 95 minutes. I scaled down my plans, going out to buy the specialized cat food my boys eat, then having a BBQ lunch. As I was about to leave I got into a wonderful conversation with two women who were at the next table. We chatted for maybe 30 minutes or more, then swapped contact info. I never would have met them if I'd gotten an early start on my day, so Yay, sloth! Oh, and I met the service dog of one of the women, named Hector--anyone who read my Christmas story will know why that tickled me. (Hector is one of my favorite characters I've added to the MCU.)
Christmas was super quiet, as I lost all my PTO while being off work after my foot surgery, so no travel. I went to Christmas eve service with friends and had dinner with them, but otherwise spent 2 solid days holed up writing said Christmas story. Which is a perfect way to spend a solitary holiday, if I'm going to have one. This weekend I've also been working on my WIP, and almost have a chapter done.
I'm not really resolving, but I suppose I have some goals. One is to be around here a little more.
Happy new year, y'all! Let me know what's up!!
