And believe me when I say it is a very gleeful, jolly and downright festive Fuck It!

And I am certain there is *something* I have either forgotten to buy, or have bought and put somewhere so safe I cannot remember where it is. And that’s fine.

The important things are done – presents are all here and a bunch are even wrapped.

The laundry is back and my god, what a wonderful service wash & fold is.

The ham is in the house. Though I did order a 5 pound bone-in quarter ham and they were somehow out of them and we ended up with a 6 pound boneless half ham. I do not understand why Ham Central did not send the shop the right amounts and sizes of hams, when they were pre-ordered, but hey, free ham.

The local shopping center has a living nativity again this year and at least I saw them starting to set it up so when I saw the camel later, I didn’t think I was hallucinating. (Seriously, the first year I saw it, I saw just the camel standing there as I drove by and I was very WTF?)

Did way too much running around today trying to find one thing, which I couldn’t find – not sure which was more frustrating, not being able to find the thing, or not being able to take a nice lunch break somewhere cause it’s still Covid soup out there. Looks like I will again be missing my Christmas Eve tradition of the tempura bento lunch at the local Chinese/Japanese restaurant. 😟 Maybe next year? 🤞

I am tired, but very ready for the holidays!
