Rang the GP and made an appointment to deal with the low-grade ick I've been suffering the past two weeks.

Finished secret-Santa present in time and it was well-received!

Helped a friend choose books for her boyfriend that happened to be about one of my favorite periods of history.

Good job on the present selecting! I find well-received to be such a relief for secret present swaps.

And hurray for getting to pick books on something you are passionate about!

I've worked out how to deal with a present giving issue that was bothering me.

Last year, or the year before, I stopped buying specific adult presents for the range of friends we encounter over the Solstice/Christmas/New Year period, and started filling a basket with treat things for people to pick from. But I wanted something that wasn't food *or* clutter to appeal to a certain group of friends -- I'm going to make 'charm packs' or 'jelly rolls' of patchwork fabric I don't love any more. I still need some things for the handful of friends who *don't quilt*, but they are getting fewer every year (because we keep tempting people, not because I'm losing friends)
