I headed out and put some lights on the bushes, G helped a bit. We left the lights on the house all year and miraculously they all worked! Gma&paW stopped by for a quick visit. I headed out to the shed and worked on the Christmas lights on the playset with Hazel's help and threw the ball a million times. L made some hamburgers and I grilled them. In a LJG&I had dinner. Then the boys put some ornaments on the tree before J left and G went up to his Xbox. I got on my PC and tested the mic that Lonie got me and then spent the rest of the evening looking at auctions and setting up a crypto meeting for Wednesday. Up too late, mind racing.

After our food settled a bit I went up and got Hazel and a group of us headed to the Falls.  We walked all the way up and L&I’s first house was gone, so was Oneida lodge, but my bridges still are there. The trail down to the falls is in really bad shape and treterous. We went down to the falls and then back up, not out and around to the pines as the trail was not passable. We made our way back to the Farmhouse and hung out some more. LD&G worked on crafts, J vanished to Gma&paW’s while we were on out falls walk. We caught up some more and folks started heading out.

It was pretty much chaos at the huge auction house, good experience for L… we then took backroads to Pickerington to pick up a couple more things from a different auction.

We then did some screen sharing to get him familiar with our new HR system. L home and couldn't get either mower started and wasn't happy about it. I left the desk with people on calls to try and get her running.  I then dug in and got a couple things done out of my email list. Did some data processing for a bit while I was on a late afternoon call. L ran G out to play basketball, guess his ankle is better... I got out of the office and there wasn't much light left so I threw the ball to hazel a bit before heading in to eat. J headed out to a concert and L followed not long after and I picked up the laptop to try and keep up.
