I bought myself a new watch for Christmas. It’s a Citizen Eco-Drive and is a replacement for my broken watch of the same type. I got it this week and am pretty excited to have a working watch again!
when harry met sally
Due to a lack of new entertainment, I’m revisiting some previously watched movies and shows. This one was a classic and it held up pretty well. It’s not quite as funny the second time because we’ve all seen the famous deli scene 100 times by now, but it was still enjoyable to watch.
My rating: 4/5

Today is Buster’s 13th birthday! To celebrate, he’s going to sleep on the couch all day. Happy Birthday, Buster! Enjoy your nap.
library update
The library project is coming along. I work on it a little almost every evening. Since I last wrote, I applied a finish to the maple banding on the bookcases. The main trim has also been installed for the bookcases and the window seating, as well as the decorative trim on the seating.
The window seating will have storage, so I’m working on the lids for that at the moment. After that, I’ll buy/install the shoe molding and a few other trim pieces and then get things prepped for painting.
I do not have the top of the bookcases figured out yet. Something definitely needs to be done. I’m kicking around some ideas so we’ll see what sticks. Before I do that, I think I’m going to clean everything and reorganize all of the books.
a pandemic thanksgiving
Due to the pandemic, we were not able to get together with extended family today. Much like last year, it was just me and Jake, so I invited Brian to join us for dinner. We ate at 1pm and I am still stuffed! And, I haven’t even had any pie yet. While we missed seeing everyone today, I figure next year has got to be a better year for everyone. Right?
