Christmas time is here…
We got a tree. It’s the most amazing tree everrrrr. It has a dinosaur for an angel.
And Christmas time makes me love my job more than ever. [for those who don’t know, i work with adults with mental disabilities.]
A certain client, we’ll call her Patty, gave out presents to a lot of the staff and clients a couple days ago. It was a new kind of preciousness/hilarium. My good friend got an Easter snowglobe from Patty and we didn’t think that could be beat until another friend got a stuffed bunny that straight up said, “HAPPY EASTER” across the front…
Awesome.
There were also a couple used coffee mugs and some homemade belts in the mix of gifts… so great.
I waited all day to get my gift from Patty… I could not wait. Finally, she runs up to me and says…
– Rachel, I didn’t forget you. Merry Christmas!
She hands me the package and I smile at the two name tags that both definitely do not say my name.
I open the package and am pleasantly surprised…
It’s a pair of gloves. Wow. I win… I actually got a great gift.
– Thanks, Patty! These are awesome!
I hugged her and proceeded to try them on… I immediately had to stop myself from bursting out into joyous/amazing laughter…
It was just too awesome…
That’s right.
Two left hand gloves.
I win.
wull hay.
