Finally caught up on things! I'm back on schedule! Woooo! That's a happy feeling. Not that I don't still have stuff to do, but at least now it's the stuff I planned on doing this weekend. Huzzah!
Today with the boss wasn't too bad. He seemed to be in a better mood. Plus he might have been taking pity on me since I came into work even though I had a just a hair short of a migraine headache bothering me all throughout the day. Fortunately it's gone now, and part of me can't help but wonder if it wasn't brought on by the low-level stress of worrying that I'd be dealing with day five of the Boss having lost his damn mind, instead of this being due to the weather which had been my initial guess.
Still, don't have to go back to work until Monday and the headache is gone, and both of those are the answer that we wanted.
On the docket for this weekend:
1) Addressing and sending out cards
2) Baking some kind of Christmas treat
3) Planning Christmas dinner with my mom
4) Possibly having the folks over to see my decorations
5) Food shopping (this is mostly related to #2)
6) Going to the eye doctor for my annual exam, and to get a new pair of glasses.
I admit to being excited about the glasses part, as I haven't gotten new glasses in easily 10 years. I wear my contacts all the time and only use my glasses when first waking up in the morning and then just before I go to bed. But the frames breaking back when I had strep showed me that I could use a spare pair. Plus maybe if I had a pair that was in my current prescription I might be inclined to wear them more. Who knows? Either way it'll be fun.
I have to say one thing though, which is that I tend not to enjoy the eye exam. Getting my eyes dilated freaks me the hell out, and I hate the constant worry that I'm screwing up the "better, or worse?" thing. Like if one option is smeary and another is blurry, which one am I supposed to pick? I've been going to eye doctors for 20+ years and not once has any of them ever explained what in the hell they're doing, other than to say "pick the one you think is better". I always worry that I'll answer wrong and get the wrong prescription. Not that I have test-taking issues or anything like that, oh no.
Still, once that's done I can hit Whole Foods and maybe even Penzey's if needed, and then spend the rest of the day snuggled up with the cats, addressing cards, and if the gods are kind even writing some Protocol. That I can look forward to. =)
