1. Had a really upsetting conversation with my grandma today, but other than that it wasn't too bad. My mom was thrilled with the books I got her. I got her a bunch of Women's Murder Club, which is a series she'd requested, and then the first few Bones books, which I wasn't even sure she knew existed, but apparently she'd been wanting to read them and was really excited about it.

2. I didn't manage to write anything for Yuletide after all. I kept trying with this one fic up until just a few minutes ago, but I felt like I wasn't capturing the feel of the canon at all and when I went back to read the recipient's letter, it didn't seem like it was really fitting the prompts much, either, so I just decided to scrap it. I'm sad about not writing anything again this year, but I'm tired and I do have to work tomorrow, so I'm glad I came to this realisation now and didn't force myself to stay up for a few more hours to try and finish it.

Yeah, I'm just glad I only had to spend a couple hours with them.

I hope you can find some time to escape your family and hang out with friends.

oh, dear. *HUGS* i hope it was just political stuff and not "you're out of the will/family" stuff. i'm glad things were good otherwise.

*hugs* Not anything like that, but it was personal, including her saying she's ashamed of me.

Wow. Can I be ashamed of her? Because, wow.

Yeah, it's not like it was a huge surprise to hear she thinks that, but I didn't really need that sort of convo on an already stressful day. Bleh. Glad I probably won't be seeing her again until next Thanksgiving/Christmas.

re: 1 -- i just read your other comments, and ughhh, it sucks so much you had to even have a conversation like that, let alone with family (during family time, at that). hopefully everything else went well.

Getting together with my family is never great, but at least that was the worst of it and didn't last long.
