I had a light day as far as patients were concerned. I started my Christmas shopping online and took care a a big part of my list. Then I did actual store shopping and was not particularly successful. Perhaps I will have better luck if I sit down and carefully create a list and then shop and go through the list. Instead, I am confused and distracted and not particularly productive. In the past I make sure not to Christmas shop until the 23rd and 24th, which forces me to make immediate decisions, and that feels less painful, but this year with my parents I do not want to be too agitated and crazy those few days before Christmas, and was hoping to be better prepared.
I love everything about Christmas, except the shopping part. I would rather just eat and drink and visit with friends and family and forget the consumer part. I would be far more relaxed.
Eric and Maurice are preoccupied with the lab and physiology experiments and writing papers. This is not a social visit for Maurice, he is here to work, and so I did not see Eric or Maurice all day. I had a board meeting until late, got my yoga class done earlier, and picked Maya up from ballet and had a picnic dinner on the floor at the foot of our monster bed and Maya told me a convoluted story before falling asleep.
