Midweek Update Passed Its Eye Exam

Going to the eye doctor yesterday was my one bit of excitement, and I'm happy to say that my prescription has not changed one bit.  These blues are still in pretty good shape (my only issue is a slight prism but it's barely noticeable).  Got a sweet deal on some new specs that I'll pick up once they're ready.

This was one of the last things I wanted to do before my benefits dropped from A's and switched over to mine at the Day Job.  (I've been under hers since we moved here just out of simplicity and ease of billing.)  In the new year once my new bennies are up and running I'll try to do a better job of visiting the regular doc, considering I'm getting older.  (Also to fix some of my wonky teeth once and for all.)

So wait -- one more week until Christmas?  Eep!  It's a good thing I'm all caught up with the gift purchasing AND the mailing out to various people.  I do tend to cut it a bit short now and again.  At present all I need to do is wrap some of the things I bought for A, and we're good to go!

Lastly: I'm quite happy to say that Q4 seems to be quieting down a bit here at the Day Job for the first time in a few years.  Over the last few EOYs we've had some system blow up and go kerflooey (causing a weeks-long backlog of secondary issues and complaints) or unexpected roll-outs of client requests that bottleneck the *working* system, but this time out it seems as though it's quieting down.  THANK GOD.  I'm not sure how long it'll last, but I'm embracing it and taking in the relaxation when and where I can.  *knocks on wood*


Hope everyone has a great rest of the week!
