I am Bad At Gift Giving and trying to knock out my holiday shopping early. So far I've gotten 7 people totally done, two people mostly done, spouse barely started, and 5 people not done at all. (One of whom is my dad who hasn't send out a list.)

I have also been very blunt in my refusal to join a secret santa for one of my gaming groups because I'm already shopping for 15 people (if not helping with spouse's side) and adding another person makes me want to cry.

Holy cow, go you!

I feel like I'm drowning and have zero ideas for the rest of the kids on my list. Worst comes to worst I'll go grab some random books for my dad.

[adafrog]

Books are always a good choice.

I am slightly less shitty than usual the last few months. Let's see if it holds.

Best wishes.

[adafrog]

Thanks.

I have covid :(

[starwatcher]

Oh, hell! My sympathies; I hope you get off with a light case.

[mobiusstripper]

Thanks! So far, I'm on the upswing and recovering smoothly. Paxlovid is magic.

[starwatcher]

Glad to hear it!

[haunted_cherries]

Sorry to hear you got covid, but glad to hear from another comment that you're on the mend!! :D

[mobiusstripper]

Thank you! <3

This week has been a hell of a year, and sadly it's only going to get more stressful at work as we get into the holiday season, but I'm nothing if not stubborn!! I'm excited for Infinity Nikki coming ut on 12/5, and I also have a super long vacay coming up soon! Just trying to summon all my strength to hang on and get there!! ❤️

(Also trying to make the best of this job until I can (hopefully) find a new one or transfer to a different team! Fingers crossed!!)
