Around 12:30 Tuesday afternoon, the manager told us to go home (or wherever) when we were finished with the day's tasks. I decided that I was done enough, and in the spirit of don't-have-to-tell-me-twice, I hit the door, if not running, with a spring in my step.
Wrapped the last gifts, goofed around a bit, confirmed (alas) that my hoped-for guest wouldn't be joining my family and I, then packed up and loaded the Jolly Green Giant and headed to Liberty by way of C&C's home. Gave in to my impatience not long after getting to Mom&Dad's and let The Niece open her gift, and she loved it.
Christmas Day itself was pretty darn good. The obligatory big meal and gifts and family times. Reminded that it's probably for the best that kids were never really in the cards for me - it's great being an uncle, but I'm so glad that I can walk away.
I'm back at the office tomorrow, hopefully for less than the scheduled full day, and then off on Friday. Good day for a movie, I think. And hopefully finding somewhere to watch UofL-Miami on Saturday.
