We did a LOT yesterday as I had such a short time at home. From making cookies and sangria, to running to the store, to just odds and ends around the house - I didn't stop until it was time to go to B's family christmas party. The party wasn't horrible. Overwhelming a bit, but not horrible. It's hard sometimes being my age at things like this. Chronologically, I should be hanging out with B's aunts and uncles, but mentally I am with her and the cousins. Why? The aunts and uncles are talking about retirement and grandchildren, the cousins are talking about house buying and remodeling. Which do I have more in common with right now? See what I mean? It wasn't that I didn't want to talk to the 'older' people, I just have nothing in common with them. They are old midwest people who are happy to retire and take care of grand babies. No thank you. We got home around 8, went to bed at 8:30.
Last week on the road, last projects of the year. I get home on the 21st late, and am done until 2019. Rock on.
I sent my salary and compensation requests for 2019 yesterday. Let's see what happens there.
