One huge achievement I accomplished was to make good sugar cookies. Nice soft cookies. Not hard ones that I always make. Now to try my luck in chocolate chip. I was so excited I ate almost all of them, which was not a good idea.
One of the great things about small towns is small town activities. Some have gone away while others remain. Not many show for these activities and it is what makes a small town a small town, different from the empty bland metropolis down the hill. One of these activities was our yearly tree lighting ceremony marking Santa's way across all the towns on the rim. This was to be done Friday but the rain kind of cancelled it.
Not getting many hours again at work and I am tired of fighting. Seems I can do every one a favor and work in every department but no one helps out. I may start helping out a friend in town for about 2 months in his shop. Works out as I will save in gas, stay in town enjoying the weather and get the gossip.
NASA is still working on space programs and I just came across an article where a warp drive is being talked about and researched. Read up about the Alcubierre Drive >>
