The Doomsday Clock is counting down...

Only four more shopping days until Christmahanakwanzaka. Not sure if I can make it with my sanity intact. Honestly all I want for Christmas is a giant fast forward button to March. Work is extra fun of course but this is a given. Hooray for having two people out sick and a third call in for chest pains bad enough that she needed to go see a doctor. Sadly, chest pains, panic attacks and even heart attacks are starting to grow more numerous among the employees here.

Want to claw the eyes out of people who inform us that we don't have enough people working the counter. Am afraid that one day I will actually say "Well no shit Sherlock" out loud. Want to make and enforce a store policy that allows us to remove from the store any idiot who complains that the store is too crowded. Am afraid that one day I will actually laugh out loud at these people when they inform me that there are too many people in the store and look at me like I can do something about it.

Am worried about way too many people. Am worried about family friend in intensive care. Am worried about my mom trying to spread herself too thin trying to help others while trying to make sure everyone has a nice Christmas. Am worried about my husband getting stressed. Want to take him on a long quiet vacation.

I know I haven't really posted much lately but that's my life at the moment. Now I'm going to try and do this thing called "sleep". Good night.
