what I'm reading.....

today on #ghosthuntingwithtracyanddeb we went searching for a lost cemetery. 🪦👻🪦👻🪦👻

(the old pauper cemetery on our farm that at one time many years ago had some rocks stacked up to mark graves and unmarked graves. now there is nothing. just a pile of concrete blocks I would imagine were a tiny building or something? )

we also hung out with Katie, met Nicole's boyfriend, watched football with KJ & Izzy, and Ann made us a wonderful NYE supper that KJ delivered. my kinda of stay-in NYE!

posted this in a contest.

#Funky8000 made memorial Digger for my mom out of my late brothers uniform.

also posted this comment on someone else's comment on a post.....often times the recognizable favorite clothes of loved ones are thrown away and when you ask for an article of clothing, it's something rarely worn from back of closet. it is what it is.

old Princeton Junior High and High School (no longer standing) that I attended.

I can virtually adopt a rat that detects landmines OR TB. I can.

what I read today....there was a quiz at end that I got 100 on. I only slightly cheated. I realized I'd missed a few pages, so went back and read them. and I asked Kevin a John Wayne question. cause he just knows.

I wanna take information with me to the grave, too. mysterious and silent to the end. that's the persona I want to affect. too bad I'm a blabbermouth 🙄.

we're middle aged and married...and today was the day of The. Glitter. In. The. Laundry. Incident.

more pics of grandbabies....

look what Auntie Kate made her littles for Christmas!

did I post these Christmas jammy pics of KJ's fam? I always wanted to get matching jammies, but I don't think Kevin would humor me. unless it was just the pj pants.

after unsuccessful shopping trips at DG and Walmart looking for villagers for my Creepy Christmas Village....I realized I have villagers galore.

find a naked teeny tiny Bratz and fashioned her an outfit complete with Santa hat. a bunch of McDonalds Happy Meal Barbies from the very bottom of The Barbie Box. a skeleton (turns out I DO have a giant skeleton...he's huge in the village!) and my Robert The Doll keychain. a couple of Playmobile guys. a couple of Nessies, a Kraken taking down a ship, and a shark. also found a couple of tiny houses in the Barbie box that I threw on the shelf, as well. leaving them as is for now. really stinks up the house when I spraypaint in the garage. the next nice day I'll take 'em out for a coat of paint.

today after getting the mail I finally took the 30 seconds and made an online account for the other bank.

then I got the bank box key, drove to bank, took out all but the $2 bills that I found, and deposited into our account to put us back in the black. (rolling eyes emoji). I almost did this the other day when I was in the bank box getting the truck title. but of course I didn't. (rolling eyes emoji AGAIN.) I feel judged when I walk into a bank anyway. those tellers know where all the money goes. and how much money there is. it'd be hard not to judge. seriously. especially OUR bank account. (clutching pearls). and MY financial decisions. (sigh). now I really should clean house while my documentary is paused, BUT....will probably finish it then quickly clean house. it doesn't even take that long. I just procrastinate like a boss.

emptied off an entire shelf for the Creepy Christmas Village. found a snowman and a santa. scale is no object, as you can see. also added in some slime barrels at the old abandoned factory...and some rubber chickens.

have a wolf and tombstones ordered, and going to look for my christmas fence in christmas box to see if it'll work for cemetery....and probably throw in some more 'villagers.' will scrounge around and see what turns up....

Gypsy Rose got out of prison this morning. I wish her the best life.

finished reading Holly. I won't look at meat the same way for a long time, Mr. King. I thought your son threw me a curve ball with the Christmas balls.....

got the best package from Amazon today😂♥️

Sunday we went for a drive to Corydon and Kevin showed me the new murals.

Christmas Day we had lunch with Koren and Cody and the kids showed us what all Mom & Dad and Santa had brought them. Cora loves the vanity that I found at the flea market this summer. Koren found the perfect little stool to go with it. today Kevin used his HyVee gift card and groceries cost $1 something. snowing and sleeting.

I gave up and started taking NyQyuil again. found a clearance snowman at DG for my Creepy Christmas Village.
