Woo, delegate that authority, Theodosia!

I had a migraine with aura last night, which was... fun? I thought it was the Christmas lights for a while. I'm glad it waited until I was almost at the end of my On Call shift.

I'm close to finishing my holiday shopping, so at least there's that.

Delegation of Authority sounds so fancy! Go Theo!

I have managed, in my confusion, to do work that did not need doing and should not have been done, but it should cost the company less than $40 so probably no one will care very much. I'm taking it as a sign to stop working for a bit. Managed to get my laundry into the washer, though, which absolutely needed to happen. And soon my black-eyed peas and buffalo turkey will be done cooking and ready to eat.

I hope the past tense on the migraine is definitive, shrift! And the being on call.

Thank goodness for the Kaiser advice line, I'm getting steroids for my poison oak infection. So gross and itchy.

Currently waiting at the DMV to get my Real ID...

The people decorating my office have gone a bit overboard - tree, lights, all kinds of decorations. And the wall of the conference room decorated to look like a gingerbread house ... it probably says something about me that I had the thought that, if it's a gingerbread house, is there an oven inside for Hansel and Gretel?

Seems like the natural conclusion, Todd.

Yay steroids, Consuela. Did you know poison oak loses its leaves earlier in the year because it would rather put its energy into making poison that leaves? Because of being eaten by Giant Sloths. Or so I learned on my last scorpion walk. By which I mean, I hope you get a lot of relief immediately.

My replacement birth certificate came, so that's done.

The admissions/registrars office for Mac's community college stuff is closed for winter break - nothing on the website about that, so that was a bust at 8:15 this morning.

But we did get the car, at the second dealership we went to, so there's that.

I had therapy and mac tried to go to the PO and get his mail key, but LINES - so another day.

Then I met up with a guy from FB marketplace and sold my 30 year old speakers - and mac went back to his apt with another small box of stuff.

I take him to therapy tomorrow, and will have 1-2 bags of laundry for him. That will be most of the stuff out of that room.

I got my holiday cards today that I ordered! And then I did my list of people whose addresses I have and realized I should've ordered a lot more. Oops.

I do that every year, or else I do the reverse and order 15-20 more than I actually need.

It's a snow day here, except it's not snow, it's freezing rain, which is less pretty and way more treacherous for driving. Fortunately our awesome sitter volunteered to come early today so I can go into work after lunch.

I just realized I'm about to work 8 days straight because my next day off is Christmas and the back to back close/open shifts are still on the schedule. I have to talk to the HR manager today. I know at Best Buy I worked more days straight and it didn't seem to bother me, or I just wasn't aware of how worn down I was from it. But that was when I was sitting answering the phones and didn't have to interact with so many people and my drive to work was much shorter.

Somebody make me do some other than watch cartoons with ltc all day.
