1. I survived the wedding. It was okay. Me going to a wedding is a bit like a closet vegetarian going to a slaughterhouse, but it wasn't bad or cringe or anything. Just not my thing. And I had to listen to a lot of emotions expressed.

I got my client, his walker, and his wheelchair into his car (someone else got him into his suit) and drove 45 minutes. It was a very small event, maybe 20 people and a drive for 30 minutes to a sit-down dinner at a restaurant afterwards.

The one complaint I have is that the venue and the restaurant were very IN-accessible for the handicapped, bordering on anti-ADA compliant, I think. So it was a lot of awkwardness and hoisting and body mechanics and mobility device logistics.

And we went home early so I didn't get any cake! Damn. That was the only part I was looking forward to.

But the shoes I bought for the occasion worked like a charm. More dressy than sneakers but functional.

2. Xmas is here. I work tomorrow (Christmas Eve) but not Christmas Day but I am back at it on Friday so not much of a holiday. No rest for the wicked. No working New Year's Day either, woo-hoo.

3. Today was the last day of school for the boys. That means I don't have to pack lunchboxes for 10 days. Yay!

What a bummer that you missed the cake! Didn't they have some cake trays to take home along with you?

Have a nice Christmas Eve evening and couple of days off! I always don't mind working between the Years, people are mostly nice then (but then I never worked in retail). :)
