December kinda ran by me without stopping, not that I could have stopped it anyway. Two co-workers retired earlier this fall and more resigned for other employment, so “short staffed” took on a whole new meaning. I had 2 days off early on & still ended up with over 37 hours of time & a half OT pay. This was all well & good for the diminishing of debt but very poor indeed for seeing friends & getting enough sleep. Did someone say Free Holiday Concerts? Not this year dearie.
I was able to get together with the Urchin for a nice Birthday/Christmas celebration. She got me the checkbook cover for my birthday & had me pick out a purse for Christmas. I had thought to get one like hers but this small shoulder bag caught my eye. Its got a zippered pocket with 6 credit card slots on one side, a flap closed pocket with an ID window on the other side & a center zippered compartment with places for my cell phone & merchant discount cards plus space for a multi-tool. I love this purse! Thank you, thank you, thank you to my Wonderful Thoughtful Urchin!
My friend Gypsy Jane & I also managed a trip together to Lynchburg which included a birthday dinner. We found an excellent Oriental Buffett with truly superb fried oysters & got various things done that GJ needed to do. I also finally found a Melita coffee pot & drip cone set, the exact thing I’d spent all day searching for in C’ville, only to find it at the one coffee vendor I hadn’t visited - Foods of All Nations.
P.S. It has been decided to call my Chevy 2500 Express Van Dan’ll, as in Dan’ll the Van’ll do it.
