Friday 12-20-24 Pizza Night, Games, Pinball & Dancing

 

Do the happy dance

We had a gorgeous day with a lot of sun. 

Before lunch we went to the UPS Store to pickup a package that was waiting for us. It was from Larry's ma, it was Christmas gifts and snacks (Lake Travis Mudd and Cheerios Peanut Cookies). We also picked up out mail. 

The post office returned one of our Christmas cards. They put a sticker on it saying it could not be machine sorted and hand sorting cost more. Some postal worker must not have been in the Christmas spirit. It was not rejected by our local post office. It was only going a few miles down the road to Georgetown, either Austin or Georgetown rejected it. In all the years Larry has been doing cards this is the first one rejected. It was a bit larger than most but he has sent others that were this size. Larry made a new envelope and sent it out in today's mail with extra stamps attached.

Larry spent a good part of the day working on the mini pinball cabinet. He played quite a few games on the cabinet and had a super time.

I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Two Game Tango Mini of 10 games (5 Spider and 5 Tri Peak). It took me 1 hour and 21 minutes, which put me in 21st place in my group. Then I played some Angry Birds.

After playing the daily event I worked on my diamond painting Mandala and finished it. I started 12-7 and finished 12-20, which was 20 days. It came out great.

We snacked on the goodies the rest of the day, they were delicious.

I worked out with the Synth Riders for a half hour. 

I played Pirate's Plunder, Asteroid Outpost and Gunpowder Gulch. I played the games once. I am getting a little better, I played three in forty-five minutes when I usually play five games in a half hour. While playing Pirate's Plunder I got a silver metal with 1,030,039. I fought my enemies twice. I played Asteroid Outpost and mined the asteroids twice. Gunpowder Gulch I did have a shoot out with the deputies twice. I had a good day playing Bounce Arcade.

I played four games of pinball, which were Theatre of Magic, Attack From Mars, Big Buck Hunter Pro and Black Rose. I played very well even though I didn't get on the board.

For dinner we had pepperoni pizza that was baked on the grill. In the evening we watched Elementary. When Larry went to bed I watched another Christmas movie called Unlikely Angel starring Dolly Parton. It was very good. Then I watched Everwood. I ended up doing 18,000 steps, which put me in fourth place in my group.
