@ColtsFan - if you care to share- How vax'ed up were each?

Parents = Pfizer with 3 boosters
Wife = single J&J
Me = Pfizer with 2 boosters 

both me and my father previously had it in June of this year. I am hoping, in his case, the antibodies lessen symptoms. Both my Mother and Wife’s first time getting.

Sorry to hear that, hope everyone recovers quickly

Thanks @ColtsFan.  I'm guessing Pfizer (2 shot opener) with 3 boosters = 5 shots.  That's where I am (number 5 comes with age).  Dang.  I am so sorry to learn of that.  But to your point, here's to the level of impact being quite minimal.

That is correct. Unfortunately, this is the world we now live in.

It appears that I attended a super spreader event on Christmas Day. Both of my parents and my wife have tested positive for the Rona. I might as well accept my fate that I’m next. Especially since I took them all their RXs this afternoon. Wife is quarantined in the master. I’ll sleep in the spare room. 😜

Sorry brother, hope everyone comes through with minimal problems.  We've had it in our house twice.  So far everything was mild.

Playing a game with SiL and BiL.  Our household isn't really into game playing, but it was a lot of fun.

Some cool looking clouds.

I feel like this is right up @DuckDogDr alley. Redhead ducks in the UP of Michigan. Estimated 25k in the flock

I guess I’m old. I still love board games 👍

Sneaking in a quick lunch. Bung tacos with a side of bung soup.

Playing with the chamber vacuum making compressed and infused pineapple.
Cut a few shapes and thicknesses to see how they'd react. I made 3 batches, one pineapple only and two with spiced rum. The two with rum are chilling in  the fridge for future use.


1/8 inch slice, compressed and infused with 1oz spiced rum.


1/4 inch slice, compressed and infused with 1.5 oz spiced rum. 

Ate the compressed with chicken salad.

The color intensity changes along with the texture. Almost syrupy and denser than the unaltered fresh cut pineapple, very pleasant not quite as fibrous. 

This is definitely going to be useful and fun.

Yes last year my parents Boston Terrier started bringing deer shins and other parts up one at a time. When she brought up a young doe’s head I threw it all on a bonfire. It looks like the meth heads a few hundred yards away had been poaching. She later lost her loose dog privileges.

Delivering a Christmas present to my Dad. It somehow managed to take 15 days to travel two states away. JBTools had it shipped here in MN in two days. It has been stuck at the main USPS location here in MN for 13 days. I emailed JBTools yesterday and asked if they could cancel my order or have it reshipped. I figured after 13 days of the item not moving it was lost at that point. JBTools asked if I could wait until Friday. Sure enough after 13 days of stand still it moved to our local post office and was delivered this afternoon. I don't know why UPS transfers over to USPS part way through shipping. I can't believe USPS is 13 days behind with shipping but here we are....

@WeberWho - depending on the shipping arrangement at point of purchase UPS will default to the USPS "for the last mile".  Fortunately in my experiences it has not been a delay hand-off.
Pair that with the weather at least here (no mail after 12/22 until 12/28).  
I'm not condoning your experience but these days logistics can be well beyond the customer's understanding.  And I'm quite sure intended to be that way.  FWIW-
At least it arrived.  Could be still trying to get somewhere with Southwest..

Pasture full of mares with glowing eye masks on is always creepy.  Maybe I watched Terminator to many times as a kid.

I am seriously considering the post-flight landing challenges after cruising in LEO and looking at escape velocity this late PM.  This is somewhat driven by the need to be somewhat functional for the 12/30 Zoom session. 
However, given the time window, I can make it all happen.  See all Friday 12/30 with doors opening at 5 PM (EST).

What’s this then,  matchweek #18 starting only one day after #17?  You must be thrilled. Given that all the bottom half of the table lost and top half won (almost) last time out there’s little news to report about who is in form.   Fool as I am, I will share a massive plot spoiler; virtually all games are firmly in the ‘meh’ bracket this week.

Friday

West Ham v Brentford, Hammers still stuck in a very low gear and whilst not really relegation fodder, they’ll be saying good-bye to any hope of a good season soon unless they 180.  The Bees are sitting pretty in 10th and won’t fear this trip. 1-1

Liverpool v Leicester, this one is all about Big Bren, at least in Big Bren’s mind. The Reds have returned to winning ways and need to continue that way to get back amongst the Top 4. 2-1 

Saturday

Wolves v Man Utd, Ronaldo-less Utd are emerging as the high quality outfit their expensively assembled squad should be. Wolves will resurge but this is a step too far at the moment. 1-2

Bournemouth v Palace, least attractive match on the card? You bet.  Agree a 0-0 now and save the fuel.

Fulham v Southampton, the Saints are abject and those fancy dan west London boys can do no wrong. 2-0

Man City v Everton, despite this inevitable loss Super Frank will not be sacked yet - because everyone loses to City.  3-0

Newcastle v Leeds, just don’t see Toon losing any time soon.  Funny how limitless wealth can improve a team’s performance. 2-0

Brighton v Arsenal - this is it, the only moderately interesting game of the week. The filthy Seagulls have remained well afloat and will be a challenge for the Gunners.  Feels like a draw though. 0-0

Sunday

Spurs v Villa, Sir Harry of Kane is back on form after helping salvage a draw last time out. Villa are better but not yet reliable. 2-1

Forest v Chelsea, victory against lowly opposition last time and The Chels’ would pay anything for the same this time. Miles off the pace in 8th is just not good enough.  Forest have a maverick streak, so will fancy this and who know this could be a pivotal game for both. 0-2

And matchweek #19 starts on Monday. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I see that Chelsea is currently being outscored by a single Norwegian 20-19.

Got the bird feeder my FIL made my parents for Xmas mounted.  Now just have to move to its final spot.
