I have been taking photos and videos and planning!!! to blog or edit or something … every single day/night, but here we are a week later.

I have also had two Christmas cookie recipes on my list …

AND, work and house chores and walks and belly rubs, oh my!!

Well, work and walks and belly rubs happened. And a modified cookie … more on that this weekend … I hope.

Meanwhile…

To the accompaniment of the above fire (with sound) and music, the halls got minimally decked:

And stockings hung.

So far, kitten and dog have left the minimal deco as it was – hurrah!

A few nights, a very few nights have been clear enough to see the moon.

But sunshine and a bit of clearing today … maybe a view of tomorrow’s full moon. Even if not, even with overcast, our nighttime walks with moonlight through the clouds and snow on the ground … my favorite!

Inside, all is hilarious!

Nap by/on the computer…

Nap on and by me…

Naps all together – evening quiet time.

… after I got up.

On a different subject … the “smart” coffee maker after its update. Well, yes!

The week in review.
