Today I'll complete some graphics work for a customer's shirt order, and might even do some billing. Work is much more complicated with global shortages due to delays, substitutions and multiple deliveries against single orders. Even when it's straightforward, invoicing isn't my favorite task because it requires extreme focus and I'm ADHD.

The rain has finally stopped (So Cal has had an almost unheard of rain streak for 6 of the last 7 days). We're welcoming crisp, clear, mostly sunny weather with highs in the 60s for the next two weeks.

DH’s son & family went to Disneyland. They return today. Bet they wish they had postponed.

And thinking of @Aneeda72. It’s so hard to stop being a parent. DH said he wasn’t going to say anything to the above mentioned son about not taking this trip; he couldn’t stop himself.
 

I was walking in the park this morning when the breeze decided to play a game with me....
First it stole my hat, then left it in the grass just a little bit away from me. Of course, I ran after it. Just as I was about to grab it, the wind took it a little farther, and dropped it back on the grass. So I ran after it! We repeated this game several times.

Sometimes the Elements get very playful! It was all in good fun!

Doing a lot of housework because my wife’s arm is in a sling. She broke her wrist Christmas Day and on our anniversary. Helping with the wash and getting supper tonight. Here’s a photo we were going to take on our anniversary, but it was 4 days later.

Well we woke up to Dry weather and a little bit of sun for the first time since before Christmas day...so this morning I set to, and got quite a bit done..

Emptied out the bird bath and cleaned that and refilled... was going to rake up some leaves, but I got caught up doing some batch cooking first... Cooked a kilo of minced beef, with diced sausages, broccoli, chickpeas, mushrooms and red onions in a beef and wine gravy.. then chilled, and set into 8 dishes for freezing...

Skinned 2 kilos of raw Chicken thighs, and bagged them into double portions and set them in the freezer..

washed up all the dishes..always loads when batch cooking.. ( I don't have a dishwasher at this house)... then vac'ed around all downstairs

Then I cleared out some clothing for donating.. and generally tidied around... ..and just as I thought about going out to rake the leaves, the rain started.. again!!.. so looks like this might be my jobs done for the day... which is a good thing now because my back is aching...

Happy new year.. everyone..

sounds like you've had a busy day!
 
Going all the way up to the other end of the island (3 miles) for brunch and champagne. That and recovering slightly from last night. The official fireworks were canceled due to covid, but there was still an amazing display that went on for over 1/2 an hour, not including the week before, and the next five days to come. The Puerto Ricans love their fireworks. Happy New Year, Mike

My husband and I have a long standing joke. Since think that goats are cute, he says that he's going to get me one....I DON'T want a goat!!!! LOL
So he does things to suggest that one is on it's way! Plus, other aspects of the same thing. For example, we have an empty field where he is (supposedly) going to put the goat. He even calls it "The Goat Field".....I call it the "Goatless" field!!!! 😁

I have to get ready to go....I hope you have a great day!

Happy New Year!!

I am not walking today. I hate not walking but it’s 0 degrees outside with the wind blowing. Got to draw the line in the snow somewhere. 🥶

Getting the wind and freezing weather later today around these parts. I don't look toward to getting up and going outside tomorrow morning.
They are calling it 'weather whiplash' .... going from 85 down to 30 something by morning.
