It’s okay, I was just curious a bit as usual 
Oh once I bought a gecko door stop! But it was pretty small and I didn’t need a doorstop so I nailed it on a wooden pillar in Alvaro’s room… Lovely little gecko. I love plenty of animals but when they are carved out of wood? Even better. Poor gecko isn’t visible enough, still the whole thing is brown, I should paint the gecko itself green or something…
Alvaro says the cold showers are effective, his body starts to turn up the heating halfway to work/home… That’s after 3-4km? MY body gets warm after 1km and only some walking and 2 layers are needed 
But now, after a bunch of cold showers (not one lately… but I will try again) I definitely am even less prone to feeling cold as before. In my own room, I mean, I totally feel there is cold outside these days. Forecast talks about warming and “spring Christmas” since days and the big ice blocks from the outside cat water bowl are still there under the thuja… By the way, the cats drink so much! Cats allegedly don’t do it but ours didn’t get the memo. My plants are thirsty too, the little princess started to wilt again. I am used to all the others who are fine with very little water whenever I remember. I actually water them more often but it’s not enough for Little Princess (yes, it’s a fitting name. it’s very pretty normally) and the… Forgot the name the big ones who get transported between outside and inside. It’s good I realized I can prune them as the big one would take up all the place. It hides all my other plants in the window anyway but I bring some up to my room for winter and spring. My room is dark in summer but the big plant is outside so they get the window again. The wall is quite thick so there is plenty of room there, inside and outside as well.
Yea one needs a big powerful gas chainsaw for alot of work that an electric or battery option can’t handle. We got some huge trees to handle on the fence lines. Need power…woof…more power LOL but alot of the products out there are ‘more user friendly’ so we all do got great options to buy and help us do that hard darn landscape work!
made an omelette, 3 chicken eggs and put in tinned salmon and cold water prawns. Not brilliant but i was hungry by the time i got home at 6pm! First food of the day. There was a fuddle this afternoon to which i took stuff that wouldnt pass my lips but Raymond had a bit … he is getting a little bit lax, he has dropped some weight but he needs to be mindful to keep it off. I didnt nag him, i have stopped all that.
Tomorrow is finally Christmas day (eve), we do a tiny little shopping, have the family dinner and come back home…
i had a spot of your trouble the other day, i cooked what looked like a good rump, i was starving again as hadnt eaten all day and it was the chewiest steak in ages, chewier than the last chewy steak. I left a good 4/5ths chewed up on side of plate and what i did eat i ended up swallowing in chewy lumps (not big enough to get stuck in my throat i hasten to add! Ended up cooking a couple of beef burger straight after and had some icky cheddar.
with vodka. 3 oz she said. Interesting and nice. I opted for stopping after the one drink.
