Fortress Of Good Fortune

Tee hee, Happy Boxing Day, luvs! Hope your holiday yesterday was a good one.

I had a nice, laidback day. I went over to my sister's, opened presents, and had dinner. We (including her hubby and MIL) spent the afternoon watching old favorite TV episodes from her DVR, many of which we could quote chapter-and- verse, but were still funny! :)

I got some very nice prsents: clothes, chocolates, books, DVDs and some practical stuff like toothpaste in my stocking, needed because of all the candy. :) I gave all edible gifts, which my recipients loved, so go, me!

I got home and watched a little TV while doing a little writing and hit the sack early. Today is a day of no chores and doing nothing but playing on my laptop and maybe some writing. Oh. yeah, and reading. Reading is the lifeblood of the imagination! :)

Enjoy your day!

I had a GREAT birthday yesterday! My sister and brother-in-law treated me to dinner at The Old Mill, a restaurant in a lovely setting. The food was fabulous. My sis and I had the grilled haddock and my bro-in-law Yankee pot roast. I also had a baked potato with light butter and we all shared Buffalo wings as an appetizer.

I also had a cool surprise: ice cream cake with real whipped cream for dessert! I got serenaded and all three of us made short work of that cake, tee hee! :)

On the way home we stopped and BunnyGirl and MooseGuy picked up pumpkins and gourds (I already had mine) but they gifted me with a baby ghost pumpkin for my birthday. :)

At home we watched the rest of the Pats-Raiders game, which was a Pats win, so yay, me! :)

After BunnyGirl and MooseGuy left I watched Tom Brady win his game with the Buccaneers, and then I tuned in Murdoch Mysteries. I'm lovin' this Victorian/Edwardian Canadian mystery show! :)

So I was a very happy camper! :)

Still got my second wind! I did a lot of editing last weekend and hope to do at least half this weekend, as I've got other stuff crowding my schedule. Hey,The Incredibles might be part of that crowd! Can't believe it's been 14 years since the first movie. :)

I'm fairly pleased with the profic editing. I'm definitely going to add some more scenes but letting those simmer as I streamline my first draft.

Last night I cooked two ears of fresh corn and had them with a tomato-and-cucumber salad drizzled with fat-free Italian dressing. Mmm!

I'm squeezing in some fanfic on my writing schedule as I owe birthday fic, though I know the birthday gals won't mind them a little late. :) I have one finished (needs editing) and finally got the idea for the second one today. I'm rollin', baby!

I heard that the Wonder Woman sequel is set in 1984. Will she be working at the taco fast food joint like she did in the '90s? ;) And some interesting Steve Trevor news, but since it's a spoiler, keeping mum!
