Sheryll:

New Year's Eve was quiet at our place. Just us, watching TV, eating a nice dinner. I had to work this morning, so no late night.

Today was a fairly steady day at work, with only one customer who marred the good wishes passing around between staff and customers. Seriously bad customer, really, who made me want to slit my throat. Or at least rethink why I work in retail! 

Still, between fewer hours this holiday season due to a transit strike and missing out on seeing good friends (also due to same strike) and working both Christmas Day and today - it's been a good holiday. 

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year and thanking all the members of the HPFGU groups for making this such a great place to hang out!

Sheryll
