continuation of Saturday

     Woke up rather well recovered, neck bothering me minimally.  At least I could now drive safely.  I was leaving as they returned home.  On my way out I snagged 2 cigars, a new shipment had arrived on Friday. 
     Think it was after 2 in the afternoon, I needed gas so away I went.  I had intentions of doing some Christmas shopping.  Of course they've given me no ideas, just didn't happen.  Was just stressed enough to need to relax with a drive and a smoke.  Rather enjoyable.
     I arrived home.  Brother in law, drinking, but cleaning the front room.  Of course I joined in, was about 4:30.  I then started on the little pile of canned goods and such in the kitchen.  Back when I started declining things just started stacking there.  In my tiny kitchen stuff was extending a good 6 inches past the wall.  So I started organizing a bunch of non perishables down stairs.  It was a good effort.
     After vacuuming, we got the tree up.  A little fiberglass model that I like, sits atop a lighted spinning disk and changes colors.  It's got a little history for me.  It was time to wake sister up.  Real pain, she wasn't hungry, of course that would be bullshit.  Wound up doing heroes from a local place.
     I concentrated on my next task.  Making some oven baked garbanzo beans.  Very good stuff, they come out nice and crisp.  Had actually promised to bring some in to the lounge on Sunday.  They came out nicely.
     Brother in law passing out on couch I woke him a few times.  I wanted a quiet night.  Got the usual drunken yeah yeah yeah response.  I also wanted to watch some television in the front room.  He went to bed, sister woke up asked for something, he had a screaming Lizzy fit.
