Day 5 - December 16, 2013.

Well. Today is day 5 of 31 days. This morning I watched some of the Typical Day video. Cleaned up around the house, listed some things on eBay, watched the guys build the porch. Talked to Silvia, went for a run. She bought the plane ticket. Sitting at Granny's now. We have eaten here every night since I arrived home. Mom seems to be in pretty good spirits. Peter has mental problems. He has not been going to work, and when he does, it is only for a couple hours. I think I have to go with him again tomorrow to chemo. His toilet has been clogged for the past few days, but today he bought enzymes to try to de-clog it. The train has stopped working. I need to fix that. Also I made yogurt yesterday and ate some this morning. It was not as bad as I imagined. But I haven't yet made any Christmas goods. I would like to make pizzelles and also custard. I would also like to Watch The Bishop's Wife, as per R's advice. It is interesting that this Christmas is different from recents ones in that there is more attention paid to each day, each moment, each meal shared together--distinctly more savoring. Below please find pictures and also a video called Steve Gets a Present.
