Timelies all!
Mr. S woke up at 5:30 this morning, so we are all tired.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Mom and I went out refrigerator shopping this afternoon, and she decided on a model at a local appliance place. All set up except for calling to let them know when to deliver/install. It was a bit more than I wanted to spend, but in six months I'm not going to be going "I wish I still had that $400," whereas the guilt of settling for one without the features Mom wanted would have been everlasting.

Yeah, I've read about patients going to the ER with life-threatening (non-COVID) issues like a heart attack who end up dying because all the COVID patients (who are unvaccinated) are taking up all the beds.
Absolutely true. A very good friend went to the ER with heart palpitations, and they basically told him that if he wasn't in immediate danger of dying, they would not be able to see him. His husband ended up driving him to a hospital over an hour away (where they put in a stent, so it was actually a serious issue).

Good lord, Vortex. Glad they got there and didn't just go home.
Way to go, Brendon!
I had visions of tree decorating dancing in my head today, but no go. Had a fun day just hanging out, though. Now we're ordering Mexican for dinner.

He's a nurse, so he knew something was really wrong.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's terrifying, Vortex

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
Now we're ordering Mexican for dinner.
Samesies!
I spent almost as much on fancy chocolate for the families for Christmas as I did getting my hair cut and colored (not a cheap salon; lots of people in the family). But it's a local chocolatier, so I feel good giving them my money vs Godiva. And it really is excellent chocolate. I also bought Christmas gifts at the bookstore in our neighborhood, so I'm trying hard to shop local as much as I can. I also hit Trader Joe's, so I'm thinking I cumulatively spent about a billion dollars today. I hope the economy appreciates it.

We got burritos after Emmett came down to get the Christmas tree with us.
Though it's dark out, I'm going for a walk because the temperature has finally dropped (albeit briefly) towards the 40s for the first time all fall. I've been very resentful of the warm weather.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Our Christmas picture is taken. We are totally leaning into Mr. & Mrs. Claus.

Ugh, Mr. S had a nightmare and woke us up around 2:30 am. He never did settle back down, and was disruptive several more times that night. So today has not been a good day for any of us.
