THURSDAY

DECEMBER 25 2025

XMAS

Up at 6AM. Let the dogs out for potty.

I got dressed. Made the bed. 

Hubby made breakfast for the dogs. Gave the cats shredded cheese & tuna. 

I made hot eggnog latte for Hubby, Nanogreens, hot tea, and hot latte for myself. 

I made the bed. Put comforter in washer to clean. It was awful stained with blood and odd stains.

Hubby took the dogs to the shower and gave them bathes. 

I dried them off. Stuart watched the dogs in the shower. 

OUTSIDE AFTER XMAS BATHS

I picked up dog poo. Hubby cleaned cat litter and re-filled the humidifier.

Hubby warmed up egg bake for breakfast.

We finally opened presents at 10:30AM.

Gave the dogs antlers to keep them occupied.

We put out the food - Meat & Cheese platter (which was too expensive and did not have good food), Red Velvet Cheesecake, Cherry Pie, Chocolate Cream pie (that Hubby had Nedds pick up from Veyo), popcorn, chocolate covered candies, Donuts from PINKBOX, link sausages in bbq sauce.

XMAS PRESENTS 2025

Cleaned up the wrapping paper afterwards. Put boxes in garage. 

Started putting comforter in dryer. Washed towels and other dirty clothes. 

We were exhausted. Sat outside as it was WONDERFULLY WARM. Kept the screens open on the front door and the back door.

I threw BALL for Riley. Stuart escaped out the screen, so we had to close the sliding glass door.

PBJR & TATER OUTSIDE

We gave the REAL DOG BONES to the dogs outside. They really loved them. NO DOG FIGHTS. Riley ran off under the palm tree to eat her bone. Tater ate TWO bones complete.

Hubby put together the Seafood Boiler. PBJR helped him. 

We got the boiler for $79 on sale at Lowes.

Hubby watched re-runs of Shaun The Sheep. 

Tooks naps on the sofa. 

Woke up and cleaned up the house. Kept putting stuff in dryer. As the comforter was STILL not dry, we had to put it on the bed and dry other stuff. 

Put away clean clothes. Put away clean dishes. Did another load of laundry.

Watched some stupid shows on TV. 

I went to bed at 10PM. Hubby came to bed at 11:30PM.
