A young woman at my job has decided to leave to further her education. She wants to study economics (!!!) & is starting school in January. I suggested two things: @marketplaceapm and @itsafronomics.bsky.social's book (on my tbr for next yr). Today was her last day & she's already started both!

I was about to get Sunday Scaries until I remembered that I'm working a 3-day week.
For now, I'm content to watch the snow fly. 🌨️❄️⛄

My accomplishment this year is convincing a colleague that "circle back season" is a real thing that should be utilized. She's been using it all December and I couldn't be more proud.
My circle back season starts the Monday after Thanksgiving, middle of December be damned.

A friend asked about a restaurant I went to over a decade ago, so I went to FB to find the details. I figured out the restaurant but I also saw that a family friend is leaving her husband because of his alcoholism.
This is why I go to FB on a quarterly basis...

On a meeting today, one of my colleagues started a discussion about Christmas cookies. This turned into a discussion of holiday traditions and foods. I learned about what lefse and lutefisk are.
I don't think I'll ever know all there is to know about my adopted state.

My home smells like an apple pie because I'm using my crock pot as a simmer pot. Thanks so much for the idea @theferocity.bsky.social!

I just finished season 1 of #Severance and watched the first episode of season 2. How were people okay with 3 years between seasons? I'm kind of hesitant to continue if it's going to be that long for season 3.

I ordered bagels, turkey, and Swiss from Katz's and it made a delicious sandwich.
I also ordered cream cheese, gravy, and brisket because I wanted comfort food.

I am really grateful for the friends I've made here. Our super crafty friend had us over to make porch pots today.
Is this a Midwest thing? I'd never seen a porch pot before I moved here.

There are two end of year parties that are happening tonight. Since they keep getting scheduled on the same night, the polite thing for me to do is decline both invitations.
That means extra bonnet time in bed while watching movies.

I picked up a novel and a romance novel at the library this week. I'm so excited to read good fluff.
I've tried to make sure I'm reading things that are important and help me learn about things I don't know. I feel like I have SO MANY blindspots, but my brain needs a break.
HEAs for the win!

Really liked #WakeUpDeadMan. Now to hope this and Glass Onion eventually get physical releases. It's surprising, especially since Rian is a fan of physical media.

I just finished Bad Company by Megan Greenwell and now I'm in need of a blood pressure pill. Private equity ruins everything.

I was thinking about doing takeout for turkey but I think I decided to make baked ziti instead. I'm slightly nervous as I live in a land that has seemingly no Italians, which means no salumerias nearby. We'll see how this goes.

I was using my work phone today and was sending a message to my team that I was "getting coffee then omw".
Very glad I looked before hitting send as the message said "getting off then omw". I would have been sent straight to HR.

It's been three weeks and my knees have not forgiven me yet.
Sitting here booking hikes like I haven't taken every opportunity in the last 6 months to lie horizontally in my bed when given the chance.

I had an absolutely fantastic girls weekend with my college friends and we started this. I'm not usually one for true crime but this has been really good. J. Smith Cameron was in the premiere!
I got obsessed with this insanely twisted story of southern family dynasty, narcissistic enmeshment & affluenza when the documentaries came out and the miniseries is really excellent so far!!
