[Magdalen] I'm done

[Scott Knitter]

Gift wrapping? What's that?

My one remaining niece who is of expected-gifting age will receive
either a Christmas or birthday gift from me; my mind has yet to
discern what this should be. From an uncle, cash is not an unexpected
nor unwelcome gift, so it may be some of that.

I had a bout of wanting to feel invisible this morning (following an
email from a parishioner that rattled me...I wanted to show progress
on a website project and did it in a way that offended someone), so I
want to reduce myself to nothing and did so in my accustomed way:
deleted all my Facebook posts back to November. Odd, and probably not
noticeable to others, but it makes me feel better. Had some fun posts
of cat-nanigans...gone. Nothing earth-shaking. But my therapist won't
approve.
