A few more days before I rest.

We did get to town.  A freezer was picked and placed on delivery notice.  She was looking at a 7 cf, but I wanted the 14.7 cubic foot.  The price difference wasn't right, either.  I don't like paying 2/3rds or more for 1/2 the size.  Another string of Christmas lights was also purchased.  Then to Church, but it looked like that Church was closed for Thanksgiving, being a college Church and this being a week vacation.  So...  Well, we tried.

Tomorrow will see us in SLC, leaving quite early.  I should be in bed, but you all know that I sleep when I do.  Sometimes I can't, as was the case tonight.  I think I will get a few hours in, anyway.  A bit of shopping, and maybe an attempt to get the sewing machine in for tweaks and the bobbin winder looked at.  If we are suspecting, at this point, that the bobbin winder isn't the problem.  Most likely, from her side of thinking and mine, the problem is the bobbin isn't quite the right size.  We will see.

Tuesday I will be helping to do some butchering.  I am not sure what all that entails, curious to find out though.  At least, after being able to haul in two recliners mostly under my own steam, I have some strength left to me.  I also have some very sharp knives, a cleaver, and a steel to take with.  I will be buying butcher paper, as well, on our way through somewhere tomorrow, as well as butcher cord and extra plastic wrap.  Oh, and I will be stopping for artisan salami, cheese, and truffles for my host and his wife and family.  I meant to do that long ago, just... haven't been out much... at all.

Hmm, lots of things have happened, a bit of money has been spent, but... you should see my home!  Cozy and warm, clean and kempt, reminds me somehow of an anthropomorphized rabbit warren.  It is all coming together.  And I think I can keep it running well... for a while... on my own.  Never for too long, but so it goes.

I best get to bed.  Good night.
