Herding cats for fun

The sky is blue today! I'm so happy to see something that's not yellow or gray!

Yay for Kay-Bee's sky! We're sunny here in Texas, and frankly we could use more rain than a shower that just ups the humidity.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I think I mentioned on Fbook that Greater Somerville is getting orangey sun and gray sky. The smoke is actually 5 miles up, so the AQI is OK, but it still impresses that there's so much of it that the other side of the damn continent is getting affected.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Yes, some of the smoke is floating over the Other Washington ... AQI is OK. We are, however, expected to get rain starting tomorrow night as Sally ambles up the east coast. Wish we could send some westward.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Tired and cranky today....so what else is new.

What is even happening?

And I'm going to look into a patient advocate who can accompany him to doctor appointments after the hallucinations have (I hope) been dealt with.

This is an excellent idea for Team Teppy's Well Being.

I second the suggestion of getting your father to sign a release that allows his healthcare providers to talk to you.

I'm glad the appointment went as well as it did. One thing I've noticed about the nurse practitioners we've dealt with is that, I feel like they spend more time thinking about the person they're dealing with (as a whole being, not a set of symptoms) than some doctors.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I just got an Accept message from a new guy for a meeting I run. The meeting was at 9:30 this morning. I get that he's new, but I feel like that should be pretty universal - accept the meeting before it's in the past. Also, if you accept the meeting, show up (which he didn't). Am I expecting too much of the youngsters?

I was so excited this morning when I opened my weather app and it said the air was good! But it was a lie. Booooooo. And I ended up with a horrible headache and took the afternoon off. Feeling better now and dog behaved. Whew. But still feel the air in my lungs. Yesterday I lost it because it was like 80 degrees inside and 60 outside but you're not supposed to open the windows...I gave in and opened the windows, it's much more liveable now.

My brain still feels a little melty though.

I'm very jealous of your blue sky KB!

Booo!

Blue skies in SF today (finally) with AQI of 14. Wishing it your way soon.

14?!? I'm so jealous. Ours is down from 260 to 180 and that seems great.
