Timelies all!

Yay for antibiotics working!

I've been needing to clean up my computer desk for a loooong time, but usually get the "don't wanna"s when it comes down to doing it.

I am pretty impressed with how little I've done over this vacation. I mean, there was Stuff To Do for several of the days, but today is the first time I've even thought I might need a project.

You know I always support doing nothing, or little.

One more workday for me for the year! I volunteered to do some extra after hours stuff to help get our ERP and warehouse mgmt software to have matching inventories because having them not match up is extremely annoying. I hope it doesn’t take too long. Then it’s a 3 day weekend, yay!

I don’t have any vacation time scheduled until February and then it’s just a 4 day weekend and I already feel like I’m gonna get really squirrelly from constantly working. Hopefully I can start slacking off more during the workday to compensate, put more home in my work from home lifestyle.

Another four day weekend begins! I slothed the hell out of the last one, so I'm gonna try to Adult and get some things done this time. My to-do list is a Long Boi and no way I'll get through it all, but I can make a dent.

My closets are wide but not deep, I had the "hang the clothes in the little squares" problem too. Finally pulled out all the shelves and replaced them with ones that worked better and let me slide hangers back and forth as the god of laundry intended. I'm still dissatisfied, though, because there's so much vertical space at the top of one closet that doesn't have shelves and so I can't effectively use it. I need a stacking solution that won't fall on my head.

Steph, I'm amazed yet not surprised that there's so much research happening on Covid, the AMA has relaxed requirements for references. clutches pearls Why, what's next? They'll let you cite Wikipedia?!

My front door only has a deadbolt. It's impossible to lock it from inside and then leave, or to lock it without the key, so I can't lock my keys in the house! One less thing for me to worry about. I like things that function properly with minimal input from me.

Man, I really need to vacuum.

I just found out that my new company gives us the 31st as a holiday as well as the 1st, so yay! But we don't get Inauguration Day (although it's a federal holiday so DC will be basically shut down)...at least I can "go to work" in my PJs that day.

That's nice Volans! We've occasionally gotten the 31st but only if it's like, a Friday or Monday? I'm wondering what holidays we'll get this year--last year we got MLK for the first time, instead of "Spring Holiday" which was always Good Friday. Not sure if that'll continue this year, though I feel like they ought to, given the current climate...

I'm hoping billytea comes through to assure the rest of us that 2021 has, indeed, arrived.....

Ooh yes. Please, Australians, tell us it’s over?

Australian friends of friends on FB said something about lemurs taking over the world, which does sound like an improvement. Would like confirmation.

Work gave us day after T'Day and Christmas Eve as extra days off, which was so nice, but now I am MIFFED that we did not also get today off. Why HELLLO there Gifthorse, what a lovely mouth you have. I can be an ungrateful bitch.

In that same vein, I was annoyed with the parents for buying me a Roomba when I had asked for a different robot vacuum. See? ungrateful. Well I had a talking with myself and said, "SELF! get over it, YOU HAVE A ROBOT VACUUM!!" and so I straightened and pied floor clutter up off the floor and have run it THRICE and the first floor is dustbunny free and I sat and worked while it was running. LIVING IN THE FUTURE!!
