The Grinch

After a long holiday weekend I am returning to work. I am beginning to feel like the Grinch. Holiday season is approaching and I have no feeling about it. Last week, for the first time in 15 years, I forgot to get my receptionist a birthday gift. As of yet I have made no effort to do so. I have been sick with a nasty virus and lack the energy to do anything. I am at the point where I will say, "I forgot your birthday, you forget mine. Let's regroup in 2019".  My birthday is smack in the holiday season and this year without my mother, it seems kind of blah. I understand the Grinch. He had a good point.
