Ha ha, no meeting, they just didn't tell anyone. They're damn lucky I didn't have to set an alarm for this.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I owe a couple people here emails. I've seen them, and really appreciate them, but I haven't had the spoons to respond this week.

Tea: It's very quiet today. TCG has today off because he had so many after work meetings this week. So he is ferrying ltc to and from school and to her hair appointment today, and I'm being a complete sloth.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
My body is not wanting to today.
The pollen I am most allergic to has been high the last week. Temps dropped and rain came in over night which makes my fibromyalgia worse. Plus the multiple threats of gun violence that were made this week at mac's School. Sleep and hiding is all my brain and body want.
But I am trudging though because boss is supposedly coming in today and I should have everything through today run and posted by end of day so pay can be submitted early Monday.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I'm impatiently waiting for the mail because my new credit card should be in it (if y'all haven't signed up for USPS informed delivery, you really should do it), and I need to go to Trader Joe's because the snowpocalypse is forecast for the weekend. I do actually need milk, but not bread.

msbelle, we had a lot of rain this week. So, I've been hurting all over, and then my fall at the bookstore made it worse. I'm going to take a long bath with epsom salt when TCG leaves to pick up ltc to school and see if that helps.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay for slothiness! I've become very fond of the Whole Foods prime delivery stuff. I ordered home delivery of my ingredients for the Christmas meal cooking because I couldn't bear the thought of the parking lots at the local Trader Joe's or Whole Foods. It was so easy and convenient that I have used it several times since then. It takes me back to my days living in Pittsburgh when I had routine grocery delivery. I am so happy to pay a delivery person to assemble and deliver my groceries.

I hope the bath helps, sj. It is good to have TCG home today to give you a break.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I'm still waiting for my new credit card to arrive. It's been over a week.

Oooh, small plastic rectangles audit!
My new debit card has also not arrived yet AND that's a huge pain in the ass.
Other recent plastic rectangles:
1. Received new insurance cards for kids and fam because we changed plans. Emmett will be swinging by this weekend to collect his because HE'S AN ADULT and needs to have his own damn card. (Even though he's still on our plan because he's in college.)
2. Received small plastic rectangle that allows us to pay for medical things from our FSA account. Mostly useful when I go to the pharmacy to pick up an order for JZ.
3. Williams-Sonoma gift card burning a hole in my wallet. Must get new omelette pan!
4. Matilda's student Clipper Card (allowing her free travel on Muni) has replaced saving us lots of money since she's on Muni twice a day to and from school.
