I enjoyed cooking (my house still has that lingering oil smell, lol) and it was nice to be able to share it with my son's"girl" friend as well. Today I had to work from 3-9 but it wasn't too bad. it was steady and I didn't have to deal with the BS of the holiday catering and drama. I did have an encounter with that on waitress, she was just in nasty mode and I said I was trying to be friendly and I guess she realized I was being nice and not condesending, and so she lightened up (I mean who wants to be that miserable all day long?? 😂) and we did have a friendly chat over the last hour (it was quiet from 7:30 on) but I did my own thing and left right at 9. The deli guy will stay for some extra late hours prepping for Sunday's catering (Hanuakkah and Christmas orders, glad I am off tomorrow!) ... but he gave me some rye bread they were going to pitch (it's fresh but they get daily morning bread orders so they try to move the bread they have every day) and I took some cookies home so that was nice. They had me 9-8 on Christmas Day and I ALWAYS ask for 12pm on as mornings are tough for my vertigo, but they need the hours covered so I am working 9-5 and got someone else to cover 5-8 but it will be a LONG Christmas Day and I am not looking forward to it ... they don't pay overtime but it's my one shift for the week.

Anyway ... I am off the next few days as I am doing charity gift wrap with my son for his communtiy service so I have some longer hours "working" but at Barnes and Noble and it should be fun. I enjoy wrapping and it's for a few good causes and helps my sons transcript for his volunteer work. (whew) 😍

I hope you feel like partying in your sadness. I know it's tough to be happy with other people when you are grieveing. Maybe the festivities will be good to your soul and know that Storm would want you to be celebrating the holidays knowing she is on your mind. I will miss her posts and fun facts. I almost had not realized she had not posted in a while... she was a big part of our wiki and she will forever have a legacy here. 😊💖

Try to stay positive in the coming days, I am sure she would want that for you!!! I am so glad we are friends too... it always makes it fun to come here and know we are waiting for each other!!! 😍

Sleep well tonight my friend! 😊💓😴
