   Last night’s dinner was good, but not great. It would work a lot better as a potato soup with sausage than a dish of sausage and potatoes.

     Thanks. Fortunately it was a word in my starter list.

   Last work day of the year! Last work day of the year! And it’s short- we close at 2:00!

   Tomorrow I have a couple things to get done before our trip and then I’m going to make a pork loin for Christmas Eve dinner. Thursday we will get up and do presents with Finn and then punt him over to his mother’s and get on a plane to Mexico for five nights. I am going to do nothing but read my book and stare at the ocean for five days.

   I have no idea about the stickers.

     I’m making slow-cooked pork, with homemade baked beans for my Christmas dinner.

   Wordle in 5. Nice deuce. No idea on stickers.

   The run in is done! A few more bolts were added, as well as some 45 degree braces. took over an hour to clean up and “unload” all the tools. I haven’t actually seen a horse in it yet, but Tanner was inspecting.

   The little dogs have been escaping the backyard. We had a hot wire about 8” off the fence to keep them back, but that broke some time ago and they knew it. Now we get to replace it to keep those 2 in bounds. George is too big to crawl under the fence.

   A beach in Mexico sounds pretty good.

     The pics of the run-in look pretty good! Amazed that you put that whole thing up so fast.

       And I was taking my time. As carpentry isn’t my trade, I have to think it through more, so need to sit down and contemplate my options. I have inquiries on 2 more to build, which would cover the Scotland trip!

     Having lived in Florida for thirteen years, and being of Irish/German decent, I never want to see another beach.

       as a pasty white girl, I’m not that thrilled with the beach, but if there is an umbrella around for some shade – I can easily do it.

   Home from Waschsalon, which was much more lavanderia today as I was the only non-Hispanic customer in their today.
