Happy Christmas to everyone. May your day be full of joy. Yesterday mine was full of noise. I was very overwhelmed by the sheer number of people here. More than I have experienced ever with X1's family. They started coming at 9 and didn't leave until 10pm. All day dozens of children, dozens of adults. It was crazy. I got so flustered at one point I had to go upstairs. I meant to just take a short break and read, but I ended up falling asleep for an hour. When I came back downstairs, I did my best to integrate and be social. I think I did okay. They opened presents and while we explicitly instructed people not to get us anything, B's grandmother made us a quilt, and her grandfather handed me an envelope with $150 in cash. Okay. I can handle that kind of gift. Small and usable everywhere. Works for me.
There was food all day, small talk all day, and then finally we went to bed around 10:45. It was a long ass day.
And guess what? Today we get to do it with the other side of the family. Oh joy.
Can I fucking go home yet? I do need to go home because I had a bit of an issue yesterday. I went to look up a new doctor for when we get home and I was created with a message on UHC's site about how my policy is canceled. Um... I ended up getting responses back from people around 10am saying everything was fine and that they website wasn't updated yet. Okay, sure. It better be when I get home.
Can someone please turn this heat off?
