2024 Happy Blog Challenge Continues

A few things happened today that I am not happy about. I lost my work badge (that I use to enter the building and clock in on) and my car didn't pass inspection. This is not the place for that. Here are some happy Friday things: The work day went by fast. Probably because I was in the Problem Solve area. It is always a good thing when the ten hour work day feels short. There are some new-to-me songs that are being played at work. One of them is a song from Japan that sounds really familiar. It was originally released in 1979 in Japan but apparently has become popular again thanks to the internet. I still have no reason that it should sound familiar, except that it sounds very 1970's. 🙃 Anyway, it made for interesting conversations at work. My big happy thing for today is that Bel is here! They were supposed to be here before Thanksgiving but had car problems. They still have car problems, so they took a bus. Bel will be helping Keziah at the store over the holiday...

Happy Sunday things: For some reason, today is the day that someone decided to introduce the cats to Cat TV.  I'm not sure where Nanni was, but Winston seemed to like it. Winston This morning Gideon and I left for a long drive to go to an event in Vermont.  It was a good thing that the event didn't start until the afternoon, even with their late start time, we were later!  We stopped and picked up some nice crepes for lunch in Montpelier on the way.  The snow, mountains, ice, and all the views were lovely. Waiting for crepes. The event, Mimir's Well, was fairly small, which I like.  It was far enough away that only a couple other people came up from Stonemarche.  There were only a few other people that I knew.  The day was all about taking classes.  Together, Gideon and I got to the last bit of Acid-etching on Brass.  Then I took a class on Cordage Making and then Making Oil Lamps for Your Camp.  Gideon went to the History of Games class...
