Happy Boxing Day!
December 26, 2008
Since I missed wishing everyone a Merry Christmas or Happy Hannukah, I’m wishing you all a happy, prosperous, generous new year instead!
I had a wonderful Christmas spending time with best friend’s family. My own family isn’t up to the holidays, generally, so since I missed Thanksgiving with them, the surrogate family got me for Christmas. Absolutely relaxing, and full of hilarity. Glad I went – definitely glad I didn’t have much in the way of presents because I was really just there for the company and it was so much more fun to bop around chatting and clearing up the wrapping paper as they opened gifts.
Today, I knocked out three medical appointments, and came home with some skin creams, and a new eyeglass prescription. Will be reusing my old frames for non-bifocals, this should be a relief because the bifocals make my eyes feel like they’re crossing.
California budget crisis: Well, crap, you know, I was kidding! I said that I wasn’t going to depend on unemployment if I haven’t lined another job lined up before the ax falls because California wasn’t going to have any money left, but I didn’t expect it to happen by February!
Evidently, corporations aren’t the only ones who are asking employees to take unpaid leave to alleviate budgetary burdens, Governor Schwarzenegger has issued an executive order to all state employees: they must take two unpaid days off per month.
Checks are in the bank, sans a bonus check -frown- so the accounts are in pretty good shape and almost ready for a snapshot inspection.
I love snapshot inspection š
FB: š I best like them when the results are clear, and not all messy with notes.
