Wednesday 12-25-24 Christmas Lunch, Diamond Painting, Pinball Cabinet & Games

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to everyone. I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

We had a super Christmas. We celebrated today with Louise and Alice. They arrived at the house at 8:30 and left at 12:00. We visited with each other and Louise played Medieval Madness pinball. Before lunch we munched on a relish tray (olives, pickles, pepper jack cheese and ham), deviled eggs and goodies Louise brought (fudge, chocolate cookies and brownies). For lunch we had ham, dressing, dinner rolls and mashed potatoes and gravy. When we finished lunch we visited a little while longer before Louise and Alice left to go back to their home in Round Rock.

After Louise and Alice left Larry continued working on his mini pinball cabinet.

Before going to bed last night (1:30 am) I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. When Louise and Alice left I did the event, which was Event: Spider Adventure of 20 games. It took me 3 hours, 22 minutes and 55 seconds, which put me in 15th place in my group. Then I played Angry Birds.

I played four games of pinball. They were The Nightmare Before Christmas, Medieval Madness, Attack From Mars and The Machine Bride of BOT. I didn't get a new high score of The Nightmare Before Christmas and currently I'm in 25th place in my group. It had been a long time since I played The Machine Bride of BOT and had a great time.

So far I have done over 20 diamond paintings. When I completed the first six Larry hung them on the wall. After a comment from Carol the other day he decided it was time to change them out. Today he replaced Lady and the Tramp, Groot, Stitch, Yoda, Disney and Eeyore with Seaside House, Mandala, Tiger, Desert Scene, Sea Turtle and The Eye.

The YouTube people we follow had their Christmas videos today and wished everyone a Merry Christmas. 

In the evening we watched a special Christmas episode of Call the Midwife on PBS. When Larry went to bed I watched Star Wars Episode II: Attach of the Clones. Afterwards I watched a couple of episodes of Everwood. I ended up doing 18,000 steps, which put me in 4th place in my group.
