I'm good too. Woke up late, did some reading for class and had 2 zoom classes this afternoon. As it's still bright I might go for a little walk around the neighborhood .

Edit: no walk, it's raining lightly

Back from getting my bloodwork done. It feels quite mild... no wind.

A candle

 

Without looking at the hidden answer, I'm going to take a guess that it's a....

...candle.

Two other possibilities that spring to mind are a pencil, or a cigar (or cigarette). But for those I would probably have started the riddle with "I'm long when I am young..."

[EDIT] Turns out I was correct. *High fives myself*

Name three days that follow each other consecutively, without using the words Monday, Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday.

Let's see if anyone can get the right answer, before I reveal it.  

(And you have to use full English words)

I suppose I'm going to have to award you a Gold Star, as well (if only for the Christmas suggestions).

It's been a bit of a busy week here.  I had my taxes done on Monday and am thankfully getting a refund.  I was worried I'd end up owing this year.  I would have, if they'd counted my entire 401k withdrawal, but I can split it out over three years.  I may end up owing the next two years, but at least now I can plan for it.  And hopefully my work situation will be better then. 

The contractor came today to finish the work on my basement wall.  They dug pretty deep in the corner with the big crack in it and filled it in with concrete. 

I've also been working more on organizing my shelves and sales horses.  I'm going to my mom's house for dinner tomorrow night.    

The weather is beautiful here today.  Temps are in the mid 40s and it's nice and sunny out.  A lot of the snow has melted, which is great news for the basement.

Well after midnight (actually closer to 1:00am), so I'll head to bed.

I'll just leave you with the following, and dedicate it to a few of the crazy people here:
