I don't normally bother with decorations because I'm lazy, mostly, but I've put up some tinsel and I've got some ceiling decorations to go up and I think I'll put the fairy lights up around the glass in my lounge door. It does make the place look more cheerful, I must say.
Got ShitStirrer's Sekrit Santa pressie tonight - small bottle of Southern Comfort - and that's all wrapped and ready to go, so I'm all organised. It's the office Xmas lunch tomorrow, when we'll do the present exchange. Looking forward to that, we always have a good time and it's a proper Christmas do, usually, with crackers and stuff :D
I got my letter from the Occupational Health Doc today, which I'd already seen, because Foghorn had shown me her copy at work. He said what he said he would, although I didn't expect him to actually put in writing it would be good if the flexible hours of working could continue after the Christmas vacation :D Not that I thought they'd get arsey about it but it's nice to have it in writing - "Look, the Doc SAYS I'm gonna be tired!" I've done 3 days of 5 hours this week and I'm doing OK. I think I'll try for six after Christmas, see how it goes. I can always step down for a couple of days if it feels like being too much.
And now I must go and watch a gruesome programme on Discovery about machines of execution :D Do excuse me!
I had my early night last night (I was in bed by 10pm!) and guess what? Yeh, I didn't get to sleep until gone midnight anyway. *sighs* I was really restless all night, actually, even though I was tired. Hmf. Well I'll go to bed at midnight tonight and see if I sleep better. Expect I will :)
