Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02516 I'm in a play in March called The Winter Wolf. In it I will be playing the father. In my script the director made a note that my character would be wearing a red flannel shirt and the other day I saw one at Target that I liked so I shot him a message and a photo of it and he said go for it. I plan to wear it to rehearsals and get it broken in and feel comfortable in the part. 

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.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02514 I've been trying to get back on track with Virta and eating less carbs and more protein. I sort of got away from it a bit during Thanksgiving but now I'm back. One thing I have been doing is making a soup for lunch. The soup I have been making consists of shrimp, mushrooms, green onions, peanuts, chili crisp and a bouillon cube. I'm using some frozen shrimp, 3 work well for my soup. So, I can really get a lot of soups from a bag of shrimp and a can of mushrooms.  I had it every day this week. Great flavor.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02513 My friend James from Men who Blog connected me with a chance at a review for his site. I was sent tis new coloring book called Epic quests and today I made a time lapse video of me coloring a page from the book. It was fun to do.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02512 Walmart had several Transformers on sale this Black Friday. I was able to order one set online and when I went into the store I found another set. The thing is these sets were only $15 each and each set was for 2 figures. These figures had all been for sale at $24.99 each before this sale. So essentially I got four for the price of little more than 2. I picked them up because of the Wheeljack figure. The black one. There was one series where Wheeljack was an Autobot that rejected being one and so he slashed out his symbol. Hence the big slash across his chest.  When I went into the store I saw a two pack of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee and since I do have a small collection of oth of those particular figures I got them, too.

Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02511 Now with Thanksgiving behind us we are in the swing of things with the Christmas season. We have our new Christmas pajamas and I also have a bunch of pairs of older ones. Tonight I just happened to put on one of my Christmas t-shirts and my new flannel hoodie which is the same design as my older Christmas pjs. My flannel suit.
