Today is Christmas Eve. Merry Christmas to all.
I’ve had pretty irregular sleep patterns lately. For some I reason I’ve been up since 3:00 AM.
We finished our shopping on Friday. It is always a challenge to find something for us to get each other, so we asked each other for suggestions. I asked Phyllis if she would like something to wear. She said that she would like to pick out something from a store called Coldwater Creek. I mentioned that I have an old Italian road bike that I would like to put upright handlebars on. The drop bars cause my back to hurt after a few miles. Phyllis liked this idea for something to get me a lot.
So our first stop on Friday was the bike store. The guys at the bike store commented that my old bike still had a lot of value, which was good to know. I picked out some handlebars, which also required new brake levers. We picked up the bike on Tuesday, and it looks pretty neat. I can’t wait to ride it.
Our next stop was Cold Water Creek. Phyllis didn’t have any problem finding stuff she liked, even though it took a very long time to go through the process of trying stuff on and narrowing her selections. I was seated in one of the husband’s chairs. A customer came by and commented that I found a comfortable place to sit. I told her I was waiting patiently. She said I was a good man.
The weather has been cold, and there is still snow on the ground. I haven’t been doing much. I have been watching a lot of current movies online. I’ve been surprised by the ones I have liked and the ones I haven’t cared for. The quality of the resolution of the movies is in general, better than it used to be.
I did go to the computer club yesterday, and it was a better than average meeting.
Morris drove out to New York to pick up Shannon and her dog to bring home for the holidays. They are likely on the road now.
