I am concerned about our "informed" electorate. At the Iowa caucus a woman - wearing an "Amy" button - had voted for "Mayor Pete" ... but she hadn't realized he was gay and wanted to change her form. (I didn't follow long enough to find out if she could - seemingly, having filled out the form? ballot? and handed it in, they had to get special permission for her to change.)

And at either a primary or a caucus, an older woman wanted to know why Trump wasn't on the ballot/form ... she didn't understand that this wasn't the general election and that there were all these names - none of them him - because it was to choose the Democratic candidate ... and she'd been registered as a Democrat for years.

Timelies all!

Sigh...why does it seem like every day when I get home, something else is borked.(I know why, but I wish Mr. S was more careful)

I bet being lectured at does great things for your blood pressure.

The last time my PCP took my BP it was absurdly high. Of course I hadn't slept all night due to ear pain from a sinus infection and drank an entire French Press of coffee prior to seeing him to wake up enough to drive there. I told him not to judge me and I would text him a picture from my home machine later. He was cool with that, but made me continue to send him text pictures for a few days.

Just got home from girl's night out with my son's MIL. We went to dinner then to a National Live Theater production of Cyrano de Bergerac. We were both exhausted by the end, but it was so very good.

Our fevers spiked again yesterday afternoon, and ltc and I are both really sick again. Also, my netflix account was hacked, which is not allowed when I have a sick kid. Thank goodness we also have Disney+. She had something to watch while I dealt with the issue.

Yikes, what a pain. After a crazy-busy few days at work, I'm finally having a slow morning. Bored now...

We were supposed to go to a birthday party for one of ltc's classmates tomorrow, but I just let them know we wouldn't be there. I'm probably also going to have to reschedule our theater tickets from Sunday to another day, if I can find a sitter.

oh no sj I am so sorry. so many sick this year.

everyone be easy on yourselves. drink lots of water and get sleep when you can.

I'm waiting for TCG to get home so I can nap. ltc won't nap even when sick.

I was at the doctor yesterday for routine checkup/refills and she noticed the MA had taken my blood pressure and it was high (like 140/90) and she was like "but maybe let me retake it now that you've been sitting here a minute" and it was 110/78. Way better.
