I found three more options for ltc today to replace yesterday’s three options. If she doesn’t like these, she’ll have to shop her closet again.
Out. For. A. Walk. ... Bitch.

Maybe show her pictures of girls who made their dresses out of flour sacks in the depression?
Ozempic update: Semaglutides were no match for the power of pie, mashed potatoes and the damn box of See's candy sent to us. Backsliding occurred. The plan is to try to hold serve during the holidays but I'll have to do better than that.
Stitches Update: The stitches on my forehead have dissolved and the scabbing is done and it looks fine. I still have the steri-strips on my arm stitches and still trying to keep that from getting wet in the shower though it should be healed by now.
Matilda is off in Santa Cruz with her beau until the 18th, so I should do some wrapping while she's out of the house, and get some presents under the tree.
Things That Must Be Done Today:
Wrapping Presents
Clean Guinea Pig Cage
Vacuum
Wash Dishes
Do Laundry
So taskful! I also have Pilates this afternoon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hope you are holding up ok, Plei
It's our office "Merry Mingle" office party this afternoon, apparently they are giving us beer and wine! That has never happened before, not during office hours. I think they served wine during one guy's retirement party but only to specific people. I imagine it is because we probably aren't having an offsite company party in January (we didn't this past January, we got mass layoffs instead, hopefully that will not recur)

Hec, if I do that she’ll decide she is a horrible person who everyone hates and cry for the rest of the night. Preteen hormones are not to be trifled with.

I came really late to caring about clothes. Which made my Endoraesque grandma despair of me in another direction , but I've upped my game a bit now. I thought it was, like, really quiet for the holidays on here, but I got logged out.(I was about an hour from climbing through the thread ceiling like Bender all "You didn't come here to hunt, did you?" and, also, yay for my huge list of passwords)
