Newjelan Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 My Inkvent calendar arrived last Friday and I can’t wait to open it. Unfortunately, I’ll be away for part of December and need to decide whether to open the relevant parts of it before I go, all of it before I go, or leave it all until I return and start on 1 Jan.

inkstainedruth Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 1. Nice weather with mild temperatures today.2. Most of the laundry go done yesterday (except for the bleach load) in spite of being out for most of the afternoon. 3. Steelers won last night in a nationally televised game. Bonus Good Thing: Finally think I've decided what to use the Amazon gift card I got for my birthday on (a couple of DVDs). Now I just have to contact Amazon to figure out how to activate it.... (and because the order is over $25 I get free shipping) And because I might also still have some rewards points the order might end up being FREE.... And the best part? I can get them directly from Amazon so I don't have to deal with 3rd party sellers.... Which, I've discovered, is a cr*pshoot (I've had good experiences but also REALLY REALLY bad ones).
