Downsizing today. I was attaching the sign when a lady asked if she could have the tree. We loaded her car, giggling.

Unpacked Christmas decoration boxes: found favorite childhood tree ornament and high school slide rule. Memories.

This morning’s walk: silent bell at the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden. Bells at the nearby Basilica were not silent.

Collected 3 foot Minnesota deadfall cherrywood Christmas tree at Possibilitree’s workshop, Nordeast Minneapolis.

Spending afternoon with a bundle of energy. Now, comparative peace: he’s playing FishFarts on my tablet.

The view this morning: dental checkup and cleaning. I’m grateful for good dentistry.

Walked round Cedar Lake, light snow falling.

Today’s low is -11F. Brightened things up by switching on the holiday lights for the first time this season.

This morning I climbed up and down data hierarchies.

Today, took cross-cultural journey on legendary 21A bus: subject of Kevin Kling play “21A“:

First “real” snowfall of the season, and still snowing. Didn’t have to drive–I’m in life phase 3–but did shovel.

Wrote about promoting a LEGO habit.

My new favorite solo lunch spot: #taonaturalfoods. I feel virtuous after a delicious plate of veggies and brown rice.

Walked to Downtown Target to start and almost complete Christmas shopping: gift cards for mail carrier, etc.

Garlic carrots on coffee beans currently slow-cooking in the oven. Lynne, I’m trusting you. #splendidtable

Assembled 2 LEGO construction kits including instructions for the nephews. They helped design the car last weekend.
