Yeah, I want to meara responses to everyone, but I lack the brain.
Gumball's 18 months. He's still pretty big for his age and has mastered All The Motor Skills. His receptive language is good enough that we're probably entering the Spelling Things years. He's been a whiney boob monster the past couple of days, but we put him to bed early, so hopefully that will help his mood.
I have many feelings about the Barr news, but I have no idea how to parse any of them...4 more days of school.
We're looking at a day or two a month of furlough starting in January...but no word whatsoever about what that schedule might look like, and I am SO FUCKING SICK of not being told things.
My day started with a zoom group therapy meeting followed by a zoom funeral. Can I be done with today now?
Goodness, sj. That's more than one day packed into just a morning.
My odd name tracking gets another hit; Twins names Sincere and Loyal.
That reminds me of the hilarious dinner conversation my family once had about what to name my sister's impending child if it turned out to be twins (it did not) since her married name was Lee. My favorites were Ho and Mo.
I have made several onerous phone calls today, and I was just about to make another one to find out why the fuck my medical supplies are taking so long to get to me when I got a message that they have shipped. So, yay! One less onerous phone call to make.
I'm basically just killing time before I go to work. I have a lot of tasks for tomorrow and the next day like write Christmas cards and get them mailed. I'm just not in the holiday mood. I kind of am but I wish I could get all of the stress of work out of the way so I can enjoy Christmas, but that's not possible since it's going to run right up until Christmas.
However! I may try to celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas doing something kind of festive and fun even if it's not a full out Christmasy thing.
It's just been such a weird year.
When I worked at the Florida Dental Association there were 2 member doctors who were identical twins, who lived in the same city (who were in different specialties) but had the same first name and different middle names that started with the same letter. So they were like John A Smith , orthodontist and John A Smith periodontist . It was very confusing
Twins with the same first name? Wow, that is either a terrible idea or genius or maybe both. Disclaimer - I think people in the same family having the same first initial is confusing, but lots of people do that purposefully and apparently quite happily
Hooray for onerous phone calls not needing to be made!
I hope you get to enjoy some holiday spirit and festivities at some point, askye. There was a point in my life where I regularly did Thanksgiving dinner in June or July with some coworkers just because we were always working over the holidays.
