A Christmas Story

Christmas Day was an 'under the weather day.' Bla feeling.  Probably because the previous day I had stayed up 20 hours followed by 5 hours sleep

Fixed salmon for lunch, but it's in the refrigerator.  The only thing I could eat all day was a bowl of rice with gravy. Took some vitamins and drank lots of water.

When I stepped out of the house I was greeted by an uninvited guest cowering in the corner.  Almost pleading eyes.

Sprayed it with the garden hose. Somewhat reluctantly the rat made it's way under the walkin gate.
A few hours later the rat was back. Again I chased it away with the garden hose.
Since then a ladder blocks the space under the walkway.


Will have to install some wire mesh under the walkin gate.
Installed wire mesh under the main gate last year when somebody in the neighborhood raised cats for sale and kittens kept getting lost in my yard


Dozed on and off most of the day, a bit of TV, brief facebook visit.  With quite a few visitors during the day  Let's just say I donated 15 k to Thai friends over 2 Christmas holidays.
Fat Boy also seemed a bit under the weather for part of the day. Half my salmon dinner revived him. 

Alvin was busy collecting tissues and plastic bags, wanting to build a new nest in the windowsill.

 Feeling better this morning. Football and beer and popcorn this afternoon

Mine's 12 inches



Yeah they come in many sizes.   
Jumbo is anything over 16 inches. 
Large can be defined as anything from 10 to 16 inches.   
Some people consider 12 inches to be small.  Of course we are talking pizza sizes, what did you think.   
When you compare pizza prices you have to consider how large is large.  Is it a 10 inch large or a 12 inch large

Holiday countdown to road carnage

2,300 throughout the entire country seems a bit low.



Premier League (England) and NCAA (USA) holiday schedule


Price of a sixpack of Leo


Joey is disabled. Resulting in stroke victim type injuries. Drags his foot,limited mobility of his right side. Hand unable to hold a pen.
I finally scared the bejesus  out of him to do something.  Get doctor certified, check with government offices how they can help, get physical therapy, job retraining.
Joey got medically certified. Now  receives monthly government assistance of 500 Baht, REALLY !!!  That's 16 baht per day.  What a deal !!
It won't cover  daily survival, much less therapy or retraining
