I am having serious stomach issues this morning. I have been up for 20 minutes and more than half of that has been spent in the bathroom. Lovely way to start a week.

We did quite a bit yesterday. Went to the mall and got all the holiday scents for our wallflower air freshener things. Got a couple of christmas presents which are wrapped and under the tree. Yes, the tree is 100% up. No ornaments on it except the three we bought yesterday. But the tree skirt is there which means the presents can go there. 11 is the current count. Only 47 days to go until Christmas! Leave me be. I enjoy this time of year. I also stopped into the new Amazon store. Ah the sweet irony of a brick and mortar Amazon store. I did talk to the guy about the Amazon echo and dot. I thought the dot required the echo but it turns out the dot is just a baby echo with a smaller speaker. You're basically paying $120 for a bluetooth speaker. Well, not only is the speaker on the dot fine for a place our size, I can easily get a cheaper BT speaker if I want. I may be adding a dot to the Xmas list. We shall see. We had a nice lunch out, looked for a winter coat for me and found nothing, came back and worked on the house. I wrapped presents, B decorated a little mini tree she bought, and we put away Halloween finally.

I dealt with a couple of work emails. My biggest issue was making sure that we were in synch for today as the next two days are going to be spent working on UK stuff. They just did their time change and with ours yesterday I wanted to make sure we all knew the time differences currently. I also made my car reservation for next Tuesday. One more week and I am back on the road thank goodness. I am ready. Let's go.

Made a steak for dinner for me and B had left over corned beef. I need to take something out for dinner tonight. Maybe. We have a bunch of leftovers in there I want us to eat first.Make some room in that darn fridge.

Watched some tv and played some games. Went to bed around 11. Oddly enough you'd think I would be tired earlier from the time change but nope. I stayed up later than normal. Whatever.

Now today I wait. I wait until I hear back from the UK on what needs to change. Then I have three days of public classes. A full week at least. Hurry up UK.
