I showered and put on fresh jammies. That's me ready for the whole event. Fancy because the top is black. Haha. I'm boujee like that 🤪
Settled into my new puzzle from Lili and Fei. Eric was keeping me company while reading up on new furnaces. Our fan motor is hooped. We're on borrowed time. Likely it can be repaired but just in case preparing for worst case. The tricky part is finding someone to work on a gas boiler for a hot water radiant system on the 1910 house.
Eric is making us a surf and turf feast tonight. Lili made oreo cheesecake Truffles in white chocolate. They are REALLY good. The funny part was watching Eric and Lili navigate using the food processor Mom gave us in her downsize. It was a challenge but boy did it whip a package of cookies into powder in seconds.
We're planning to watch Peter Rabbit 2 with dinner. Then after the boys head to bed the five of us will continue binging Locke & Key. Certainly not eliciting the excitement of the previous years annual parties! And this is scary, but, I'm starting to feel more comfortable in our hermit like existence. What if I'm actually an introvert??!!

Lili and Fei's marks are all in. Proud Mom bragging moment. Lili pulled in an A, three A- and a B. Good job Lili. She's moving into finance in term 4, finally finding an area she is enjoying. Fei got a 4.05 GPA!! Fabulous work on your 1st term Fei Fei!
Ok, thought I was turning 55, but NO, I'm 55 now, turning 56. Yikes. Also Betty White died today. Eric ended up working all day so we skipped having him cook and picked up A & W. Mozza burgers, poutine and rootbeer. We did watch Peter Rabbit 2 and it was cute and full of laughs. Kai thought it was a bit sad and had a good sob mid way. How is everyone else's New Years Eve panning out?
We did the countdown at 9 and yelled out Jumangi instead of Happy New Year. Kai made it to 9. Luk 9:30 and I made it to 10. We'll see how Eric and the girls make out. Going to sleep to the sound of fireworks. You can't quantify how much I hate fireworks. Oh, and bcassessmant.ca has new 2022 assessments online and ours went up 43% versus the typical growth of 6%. Can they do that?!
It's 11:38. Fireworks have gone on steady since 8:30. What the actual frick?! Why are people celebrating? Are they all really that bored? Just today I was frustrated listening to the boys release Bayblades for the 3000th time and I asked Eric what more can they possibly learn from this? Sort of thinking a bunch of men/boys are out playing with their stupid fireworks/Bayblades. If only they were smart enough and considerate enough to coordinate and do it all at once. Isabel and I have had more than ENOUGH. Looks like my community feels it's important for all of us to stay up late tonight. I'm using my awake time to shop for acreages with no neighbors.
