Right, well Thursday was quite a marathon. Deb had two appointments, Katie needed to shop for foods for xmas day (the whole famdamily is coming over in the AM) but Wal mart had no riding carts, so she hoofed the whole grocery section, which for her is dangerously exhausting, and not so easy on my legs either. wore them out, so they rested this afternoon, and I went on a galavant with Cindy, checked the mail in Palmer, and had coffee at the Valley Ho. so I didn't do much fun stuff today but a bit of internet, and a few more shrines on Breath of the Wild. I'm now pretty close to the end. I have one Shrine quest left; the labryinth in the sea to the North East. and about two or three annoying side quests. one is just getting a traveler's sword to the kid in the village...brat child. unless I find some more shrines, I only have three left to finish. all of them fighting ones. I'mma have to go get Gannon real soon here. the toy soldiers are calling me to finish them, but probably won't get much time with them until after christmas...lots of things to do here. I made a stocking for deb, wrapped presents for family, decorated. we still have more wrapping to do, more cleaning, some cooking... gotta go to Palmer tomorrow for Katie's hair appointment, and Deb has more doctors. Hope to get to visit with you on Sunday... here's a pic of Theodore Hahn Toy soldiers; he imported German figures, either copying them, or repackaging them for the American Market from a little storefront in New York back in the 1900s to 1919 era. the first American toy soldier maker we know of. here are some very good condition Rough Rider types from his factory.
