I must say - I’m astounded my birthday selfie went viral (maybe?) and that is ridiculous. So, for those of you checking in - I love sports, beer, my son, and my cats.
Look out for KU takes, live sports check ins, beer drinking selfies, sport event selfies, and single mom ponderings.

Gilmore was doing an early tree reconnoiter and passed. He shall return. As shall his sister. Time be passed under the tree, considering the year. Time will be spent snuggled next to me looking at the tree. I have no climbing cats.

I’m going to have to fill in some gaps on the tree, for sure. But it was cute to see Sage so excited to decorate. Nicholas sat on his ass and hand shit out. It was nice to have him help, as he really hadn’t recently and, for me, it’d always been a thing with my mom.

Big12 has had a shit day though. Zona could help that (which is still weird to comprehend). I am still worried to know if Peterson will play tomorrow.

Guys - did I tell you that I was totally fucked Jo that Hillary Duff has a new single? Not that I ever listened to her, but that my release radar had the new Robyn and her it was real weird.

I am a bad friend in that I don’t reach out often to check in even though I’m always around. Always here if you need me. So, it was really nice to have an old friend drop by the house this morning (once I got out of bed) as she was waiting for her son to take the SAT.

Funny how this tune will change when those that will be hung are a bunch of white dudes.

Portnoy came on and I moved it to another box. Don’t need to ever listen to a word which leaves his mouth.

Tree is up and Sage got her first experience hunting for a tree and decorating it. She’s found it all very sweet.
It appears it has been determined we will be doing bday lunch and movie tomorrow. So, once the girlfriend returns from her weekly grandma lunch, we will go get the Xmas tree and start xmasfying the house.

Nicholas came up and said - ready to go to Costco! I had no plan to go to Costco, and asked him what he needed and he said, a hot dog. No dude. I’m not going to Costco just for a hot dog.

Back on my PBS bullshit - Ken Burns Civil War.
It’s really weird having lived in Alabama for 12 years and stopping and just understanding things that I knew were weird then (when I moved down from Kansas), and now 10 years later, even more odd.

So, I emailed the school AD late on a Friday evening in the hope it will be added Monday when she sees it. But then again, they don’t have anything until the week before Xmas and there are already games being played.
I love that I have to get information for my kid’s high school game from the opposing school’s website since ours has none. It’s ever so helpful. At least I knew where the game was supposed to be played.

It gives nothing away at all in the show for me to post it, so it’s really fun to see the side by side.

Okay, watching this week’s episode of Pluribus, I figured out that what I saw was being set up 2 years ago when I was staying at the Westgate was for this!
