Back from Cape Fear ...

I flew home today. Wasn’t in the best mood for these flights. Cut the arrival at the Fayetteville Airport close because couldn’t find a gas station close to the airport, so had to turn around and get gas, made several wrong turns and long detours. Had the worst orange juice ever and a homemade egg and cheese biscuit that was worse than any one McDonalds ever served. Stood behind small children and old people who haven’t been on a plane yet this century. I’m ever so patient when people have no clue what they are supposed to do in the security line. Had a headache right behind my left eye that was pulsing like it was being stabbed repeatedly. Found my ipaq completely empty of battery power. My carry on doesn’t fit wheels first in every airplane.

However once I got on the flight from Charlotte to Providence things went better, I had a piece of pizza and some Mello Yellow, the headache went away, started reading Serpent by Clive Cussler. First book in the Kurt Austin Series, I think I am going to like this series. The seats had power so I could charge the ipaq. I dropped my empty soda cup as I was passing it to the stewardess and ice went everywhere, luckily no one was sitting next to me in the middle seat. I had a window seat which was nice especially on the approach to Providence. I almost got plowed into on the way home on 295. Some idiot didn’t look, didn’t signal and went right into my lane as my front bumper was parallel to her rear bumper. Then she changed lanes again with no signal. I hate that! Get off the road you stupid cow!

I’m home no, so things are more calm. Day of ups and downs, in more ways that one.

Review: Lumibricks Izakaya Building ...

The folks from Lumibricks sent me their latest building set, the Izakaya for free to build and review. Opinions are 100% my own. I've built a few sets from Lumibricks (formerly FunWhole) in the past and they are really fun and interesting. The photo above is of the Izakaya and also The Apartment. they are both part of a Cyberpunk theme called Neoncity. At this time there are also two additional buildings that you can build and add to this whole theme, the Game Stack and the Floating Train Station. The great things about these sets is that they light up. As you build you are also adding lights and wires and ways to illuminate the amazing build. Once you're done building you fire up some power and the lights blaze up. With Neoncity sets you get some incredible Nenon effects light signs and even neon tube lights. That is one of the coolest things about these sets is how the lights are incorporated into the build. Some very innovative bricks were made in order to thread the wiring...

2025 Family Ornament ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02515 We put our tree up the other day and I had already bought the 2025 Hallmark Keepsake ornament for our yearly family photo ornament. I love these ornaments on the tree. We have them from 2005 to now.

Christmas Tree Is Up ...

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02510 Yesterday we put up the trees and today we decided to decorate the tree after dinner. Our tree is now mostly our family photo ornaments. We have a bunch of ornaments but with over 20 years of family photo ornaments it look like the predominant ornament type that we'll see. We did get a 2025 Hallmark one as well and I have to select this year's photo.
