turpsWe went to see Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom on New Year's Eve morning.
Was it that good? Nope, but sometimes all you want to see are a lot of pretty special effects and Jason Momoa chewing up the scenery, and that, he was brilliant at.
I got a card fromromantical, thank you so much!
James' appointment was cancelled on Friday night, but they gave him one on Saturday morning instead, and he's now using a steroid cream that's working well. In that, the itch has gone, but he still has big patches of deep pink skin.
All my decorations are down now. Though as usual it's spot the one that got left behind. Usually it's something small, but this time I managed to leave an angel hanging in the window, and a full garland along the top of the kitchen cupboards.
Snowflake Challenge has started, which means my flist has exploded, which is great but also takes a bit of getting used to at first. I haven't done the first challenge myself, but when looking at my user info noticed my Frank/Mikey banner had been deleted. It was hosted at Photobucket and as I'm not paying for the service, they've been threatening to delete my accounts for a while, and now they have. So, goodbye Frank/Mikey banner, you kept my user info looking lovely for many years.
I just got a phone call from the weight management team
First a small niggle, the lady was using a speakerphone and I hate the echo you get, hearing your own voice as you speak.
Anyway, I have an appointment on the 23rd at the walk in centre in town. Not sure what will happen and while she said sorry for such a late appointment, it does seem fast. But, strike when the iron is hot and all that.
And actually, I Googled some details, and it's a 26-week programme, with one to one meetings every six weeks with weekly drop-in group sessions to include cooking demonstrations, low impact exercise classes, nutrition advice and more.
Nothing terrifying, but still, yikes.

Date: 2024-01-03 07:51 am (UTC)YES! That's exactly what was annoying about Photobucket. I used them a lot, for both personal things and fannish so had two accounts, then suddenly they went paid only. I tried to download the photos I had, but like you, I couldn't without paying for the privilege. If they had given a warning period, I would have thought much better of them.
Up until recently my hosted stuff was still being shown but with a watermark, now they're gone completely.
Sadly I had no backup as I saved the banner a few computers ago.

Date: 2024-01-03 12:20 pm (UTC)I'm sorry you lost your banner and other images. I'm always concerned LJ will suddenly disappear because ALL my artwork is posted over there. Artwork for my stories. Artwork I've made for other people's stories. Artwork for the NCIS Reverse Bang for the last ten years. Banners that I made or other people made for my communities. Just all sorts of things. I know I have some of it, but like you, many were from many computers ago, so I'm not sure I have them all elsewhere. *sigh*
