Holidaze

Once again it is dark o’clock. Stella is beside me, she over the heavy sighs. Archie is over on the floor chewing a bone. He is mostly quiet with it. Mostly.

With the combination of upcoming holiday and impending storm work has been crazy. We were steady enough that I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off for pretty much my whole shift. I didn’t get home until around 10:30pm. Much later than I had planned. Part of that was due to me chatting with a coworker. He was going through a very bad patch of depression and needed someone to talk to.

The pot luck was a success. Lots of good food and work even got us a smoked ham. Or rather donated a ham for us to smoke (I love having a smokehouse at work!). Other added bonuses to my day… three awesome gifts from my little sister (we have adopted each other) that included a new Minion tee, a warm blanket (with a heartfelt message on it) and a travel mug (with another sweet message in it). When I got home I had a box from my horror Secret Santa waiting for me. It is a cool little box in the shape of a coffin. I’m not quite sure of all the uses (the description included holding cupcakes) but there is a link to go see. There is an odd piece I have no idea what it is for.

I need to go warm up the car and head to work. Thanks for reading and stay safe! I will try to get photos of the gifts later today.
