0-0 at halftime. United looking solid with a narrow four in midfield in front of a back five. Same eleven that won at City. Hojlund missed a good chance just before the break. Not sure they can keep this up for the full ninety minutes, though.

New hat achievement unlocked.

Despite it being xmas holidays and eating to excess I lost a pound in weight.

If I can get to bed earlier tonight I’ll have cracked half of my aims for this year and we’re only four days in.

Just now another guy came to do the same job.

No excuses now for not leaving the house.

A door with a metal handle and lock features a green sign indicating "Turn to open."

Finally figured out how to use the Lite Youtube embed plugin.

In settings, replaced “post-content” with “post__content”. (This maybe unique to my Anatole theme.)

Space-obsessed four year old last week:
