I had just told tim, I wasn't planning on talking publicly today. And of course, I did. Morning DiC. I hope everyone is having a post-Christmas good day. Thank you, everyone, for the good wishes. It's greatly appreciated. So, Skyrim... Pirated games are buggy as hell, and even with the newer install, my saved game folder was corrupted, meaning I need to restart. I did fix it. It was a Read/Write error on the folder its self, and it was being caused by my Anti-virus. I've run the Anti-V on it four times now, both online and offline, and it's clear. So, I was able to fix that. Surprisingly it happened in the same spot as the first installment bugged out. Building Lakeview Manor. That's what I get for trying to build a house for two kids, a dog, and a spouse.

I've used this before, once as a contributor to a friend's world, and once for my own. I recommend everyone should try it to see how it feels, as it's perfect to keep story worlds together.

Down my Natural Calm, and dozed off. I do believe I am heading to bed.

It's all good. 🙂

Ahh, ok. Thanks, I didn't know that. 🙂 These sound good: Vushka (small dumplings with mushroom). Varenyky (dumplings with cabbage and potatoes). But then I love dumplings. Chicken and Dumplings, Bean Dumplings.

I just tried to Google it, and my google-fu is lacking right now... Is that the day for Three-Kings?

Thanks, Bro. It's all appreciated.

Thanks, y'all.

Sleep Well, Thorn.

I didn't want to bring anyone down, with today being Christmas and tim's birthday. Now that the day is almost over if you're of the praying type, I could use some. My Mother told me this morning, that tomorrow on the 26th, she is going into the hospital for a procedure. Should only be a couple of hours, in and out. But, what they are doing is a significant procedure. It's a long story, but to sum up, a few years ago, she was fighting the infection in her spine, that I told you all about, that had made unable to walk. Thank the gods, that is fixed. But during that time, she was put in a medicated coma and was in the ICU for three weeks, after the first rehab center she went to, made her OD on her painkillers. Because of that, her vocal cords atrophied and she has issues talking, swallowing, and food/liquid will get in her lungs when she's drinking. The procedure tomorrow they are sending a camera down her throat to look at her lungs, as they have come back with "funny" looking splotches that look like shattered glass. The doc has said it could be Wet Lung, or something worse. She's in her 60's and has been a smoker since she was 15. Prayers, Positive Thoughts, Good Mojo, what-have-you, is greatly welcomed.

I hope you've had a great day!

Traditions: As a kid, wake up to see what Santa had left at about 5:00 am. Usually, they were unwrapped from Santa, and the wrapped ones were from mom, dad, and sis. Mom fixed breakfast, different all the time. Lunch at my Grandparents on mom's side of the family. It was usually HUGE. Mom has two brothers and had one sister. The two brother's each had four kids, and her sister had two. Post-Turkey nap. Then Dinner at my Grandparents on my dad's side. He had three brothers and three sisters, each with 4 - 6 kids. Usually had ham there. Years varied, but sometimes there was a Sunrise Service at the Baptist assembly grounds, or just lounging around at home. As a teen. The above minus Santa. As a young adult. Everything above, minus Dad's family after my grandmother passed away. Now... Dinner with mom's family. Depends on who shows up, as most go to other places. We don't go all out, a small tree and some lights last year. Only some inflatable Christmas yard stuff this year. Dad's family... may their hearts unharden one day. That would be a Christmas miracle.

Good Morning. Merry Christmas, Merry Yule, Merry Saturnalia, whatever you celebrate or not, may today be a joyous occasion for all. Visited Mom this morning, she sends her Merry Christmas to everyone. Happy Birthday, tim. I know I've said in other places, but wanted to say it again. To all, hug someone, tell them you love them, and hold them to you with everything you got.

Merry Christmas to you too Mike. May today be filled with a lot of laughter and love.

Merry Christmas back to you, Kitt. Lots of virtual hugs and kisses!

Sleep Well, my Brother. Happy Birthday when you read this in the morning.

And he was just in tim's, Mike's, and Reader's neck of the woods.

For those that want to know... Santa is now in Canada and the United States.

Sleep Well, miss molly.

It took me a while to find the right words to say. While a part of me feels the sadness that others have expressed, I also see the hope and love captured in it as well. The hope that one has that they have met in a previous life. The love that is behind the sadness; to feel that deep of a sadness one must have a deep love of the person as well. I feel that you captured the visual of walking along the dry river bed, and the river stone very beautifully. Fantastic poem.

Merry Christmas my Brother, and Mike. Yes, a lot of happy and sad times this year, but as you said we love and support each other here. Love and peace to everyone.

Sleep Well, Thorn.

Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays, BB.

Enjoy the trip and family Starry.
