It’s December, which means I look at my credit card bill and think, “I haven’t bought any presents yet. Why is my balance so high?”
Even though the goal is to do handmade presents, gifts from the heart and whatnot, every year I get overwhelmed/depressed in the fall and nothing happens until the day after Thanksgiving, so the inevitable panic to purchase some gifts for the people I adore.
Except this year, I GOT THE FLU THE DAY AFTER THANKSGIVING. I missed a whole week of work and was so sick I didn’t get anything around the house finished at all. This after being sick with some kind of weird virus/stomach thing the previous week.
UGH. NOVEMBER. SO GLAD IT’S OVER.
But I’m in a sticky wicket. I’m kind of broke and I have the next five days to finish my Xmas Delights and get them shipped.
But mostly, I just feel like twittering a lot of swears.

I am pro-swears.

One thing I’ve found about people I love is that they’re very understanding of fall overwhelmedness/depression and of the flu. I’m betting yours are the same way.
