Early Voting Day

Brunching Teriyaki Chicken

I woke at 2:30 this morning to Ted smushed against my back. Since he was cooped up in our room for a week while Lucy dog was visiting, he's now taken over my spot on the bed. That's where he was every single day last week and now he thinks it's HIS. In the night he is as close that spot as possible, waking me up. I know he's trying to push me out. And he did. I got up to pee and was wide awake. I did puzzles until 4:30 before putting my phone down and dozing off. I woke at 8 and got the day moving. Kev had already fed the boys and made the coffee so I fixed my wee cuppa and we went out front to the rockers. I filled the bird feeders and did today's puzzles (I did past puzzles in the wee hours this morning) and then did morning chores, had island time and got to work. At 10:30 I heated a chicken teriyaki frozen meal for brunch and continued with my work day.

Got the Vote In, then chili

The afternoon I broke down and purchased a subscription to Hallmark+. It's Countdown to Christmas time! I started with Tis the Season for Setups, perfect for playing in the background while working. It was just after 5PM when I unplugged, fed the kitties their evening stew dinner, changed, and we headed down the mountain to go early vote. We chose the election commission and boy was it efficient! It was like a smoothly run airport. We were in and out within 15 minutes. We got back to the house and I heated chili that I thawed out. I cut up a little red onion to go on mine, along with sharp cheddar and low salt Fritos, which our grocery just started carrying. 🙌. After dinner we walked the garbage bin down the lane. I then got in my PJs and on the couch to do a bit of work before bed.
