Tiny! I found us some socks! The ones on the left for you and the ones on the right for me! Lol!!

I simply must have them! Let the googling begin...

They are both Fabulous!!!

I knew you’d love them! There are ones that made me think of each of my Girlz. I wanted so so badly to just get them for you, but thought oh, so, then what? Send a picture? Haha. So I’d did do that at least. I did get the girl cutting the heads off paper dolls ones for me. Daughter says they are perfect! Lol. Will be wearing those to work tomorrow. Wore these blue ones with a bit of floral design the last day I worked that say “I’m a delicate effing flower”, but it actually spells it out. Seems it is fine to wear to work, but not write that word here, haha!  I get and respect that though. My scrub pants cover that part, except when I’m sitting in the work room charting and then my colleagues see it. Is to the point when I go in that I’m asked “what do your socks say today?” Yeah...clinic sock monkey . Whatever...I’ll be their Huckleberry. 
Hope you girlz are well. I’m all better. Had that first day of fever, then not really fever next day, just around 100, which was back to normal by the time I went to bed the second night and never got even the tiniest other symptoms of anything, so am not that worried about it! 
Daughter had all 4 wisdom teeth out today, so I’m definitely feeling better than her, poor sweetie. My sweet little Crow, she is. Oh, it is one of my pet names for her as she really likes “shiny things”. 
Ok...seems Jaka’s friend Nika is a Comrade Kombucha maker! Woohoo! Maybe I best send her a PM if we are gonna do too much Booch talk. 
Peggy...how are those power tools working out for ya??? 

Oh, Tiny...if you can’t find them I would happy to send to you! If that’s too strange, then you can call Powell’s Books in PDX. They ship everywhere. 

Well, today's a pooper. I love mr. Rogers, as you all well know, so it stands to reason that I love king Friday XIII. Today is his birthday, so today is a good day. Until....bum bum bum....I woke up this morning and it was 63 degrees in my house. I like it cold, but my husband does not, so it was odd. So I asked my husband to go to the basement to take a peek and he said the pilot light was lit and there was no gas smell. We went through the how to on the manual and could not get it to blow heat. So the ride comes, calls another dude who calls another dude and they have decided. It is dead. I won't go into all the dumb details but my furnace has died. I can't even sort of run it because of the whole carbon monoxide gig. So it's cold today. The current temperature is 32. I know it doesn't sound that bad but when you are in a old house with no carpet there is a chill. And tomorrow's high is 36. At least we have power. So I'm in bed, snuggled in and have a space heater running, and the dogs have their winter coats at the ready. Then, we get an email from the doggy dermatologist. We have to keep up with the weekly prescription shampooing, the pills, the drops and some supplements. Don't forget one of the supplements causes diarrheah. This adds to the fact that I found out yesterday that I have the beginnings of tardive. Think of it as medication induced tics. Shucks. Somebody say something. Starfish.

Well crap Tiny!  That is a pooper of a day!  The good news is at least you are not a smoker! 

I agree, but I do admit I seriously considered it several times today.

Thinking of it is OK, doing it wouldn’t be.  I will tell you, it won’t help anything, but you know that.

Starfish. We can’t see them, but they are still there. Going about their sea lives and carrying on. 
Well, that sucks about tardive Tiny. So, changes then? Ugh. Well, probably good then the nicotine is out of your system. So, what part of smoking did you consider? I think it might be a good time to make a list of negatives. Ok, so that is kind of redundant and lame advice, but I’m a bit brain dead. Do the dogs sleep on the bed? I bet they are like little furnaces. Are you getting a new one tomorrow? 
You will be ok Tiny. I do believe that. Maybe is hubby’s turn to rub your head. Feet too. Yeah. Cup of cocoa, and a good book. Go to sleep early. Turn on your Ocean and think of all the creatures under there. Did you watch “My Octopus Teacher” yet? 
Im sorry. I’m pretty darn tuckered right now. Waiting for my second wind. Well, it’s actually gonna be about the 5th wind as I had a cup of coffee at work at about 3:30.

Things are gonna work out. Did you find the socks???

My octopus teacher was so sad. It made me incredibly sad at the end. You're supposed to recommend fairy tales, loreficent! It was neat though, before the shark bidness. I didn't realize there is more than one bookstore! Anyhoo I was looking on google to see if that company made other socks and gadzooks! They do! You simply must look at this company's offerings. So many inappropriate socks to choose from, mostly profane, but I think it's funny. We had a store downtown that sold local offerings and I bought a hoodie that was super nice. High quality. Unfortunately, it had profanity intermingled with the word montana that I didn't notice! I thought it just said montana! I had worn that thing everywhere and I'm sure offended many a person. It was funny though, and I was sorry to see it go after a ton of wear and damage. Socks and potholders are on the way, maybe that will ease the pain. The dogs do sleep on the bed and it wasn't too bad last night. I slept in a hat and my chilly willys, though. I have central air and a very nice furnace, but it is older, it came with the house. The people in town that do estimates, not the techs, were either gone for the day or busy so we hope to find out something Monday. To replace it with something similar will be thousands of dollars, I'm sure. Thank goodness we don't buy each other Christmas gifts. We normally just give to charities, so it won't put a huge damper on our merrymaking. At least next week the highs will be low 40s so that's a little warmer until Friday when it goes back to 30s. And we have a fire pit, also good. Cocoa: check. Book: check. Feeling grateful for everything I have:check. Now all I need is a plan to stay smoke free until January. I just need the holidays to pass smoothly.
