Nancy has her coloring group today. Tomorrow that group is having a Christmas party. I am waiting for the paratransit to take me to Wegmans. This is the same store I worked at for 6 years as a cashier. I'm looking forward to spending a little time at the store.

This was the second movie that we watched as part of our Movie Night. This was a wonderful movie. The animation was brilliant and it was funny and everything about it was good. If you like this kind of movie I highly recommend it.

Today Nancy had physical therapy. I forgot to bring my phone and was offline all day until today. Then we stopped to pick up our meals at Eat Rite foods. Now I am home going to take a shower and watch the Buffalo sabers game.

I believe Trump could end this easily if he sides with Ukraine. All he has to do is announce a delivery of tomahawk missiles to Ukraine with permission to use anyway they feel fit. I think that would be a good step to end the war.

Today we are going with a couple friends to Spot coffee for lunch. We have to get up early tomorrow as we're going to the Buffalo sabers game. They play Carolina at 1:00. We go early because I like to have breakfast and hang out at Tim Hortons for a bit before the game.
