Another holiday down and it went about as well as all of the recent ones, which is to say my aunt got sick (probably with RSV) and we had to postpone until Saturday. But what mattered most was that she is recovering, we did manage to get together, and none of us contracted it. Also: the food was delicious. My mom made the crab dip appetizer, I did the homemade cranberry sauce and the pumpkin pie with gingersnap crust, and my aunt took care of the turkey and other sides. Hands down Thanksgiving has the BEST traditional foods.

I also had to take a lot of my vacation days so I was off Tuesday of last week to today at 5pm, and it was so nice just to catch up on life and start preparations for moving. I've got some boxes from Home Depot, and managed to write out all of my Christmas cards along with getting a blood test for my new primary care doctor and a million other little things that I'd fallen behind on. Now for the push until I get an affirmative for the apartment and hopefully find a Toyota Camry hybrid that's for sale at a decent price and I'll be a fully functional adult human once more!

I'm looking forward to a better 2023!
