1. Got a little extra sleep this weekend, which helped. This is still a really stressful month, but work is going okay for the moment. And I got some Christmas shopping done last week. And I think I’m in a decent place to start next week, so I maybe have a little bit of a head start. We’ll see how it goes, but for the moment I think I’m okay.

2. Watched the ending of Down Cemetery Road. It’s phenomenal. Loved it so much. And good news—it got renewed. Season 2 is a go!

3. I spent several hours yesterday in the ER. They think my mother had another small stroke. But she is doing okay and should be released tomorrow. She got some IV fluids and antibiotics for a sinus infection, and she is feeling good. They’re going to make some changes to her meds, and hopefully that will help. I’m happy that she’s okay, that we’re all okay for the moment, and that the damage seems to be minimal. I am grateful to all the doctors and nurses, aides and cafeteria workers who are there to help her recover. And I am grateful for more time.
