I think I wake earlier with an alarm because I wait for it. Haven’t used one in many years. Still wake up at 5 something.
I’m sorry, sj. I hope some alone time to decompress comes soon.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

ltc is in bed. TCG is doing a virtual meeting, and I’m eating cheese puffs. I was going to make myself a drink but that feels like work.

I was going to make myself a drink but that feels like work.
Worth the effort!

Not tonight. I couldn’t move off the couch once I got ltc to bed.

Oh no, sj, that sounds stressful indeed!
I got almost no work done again today. I really do need to motivate one of these days but tomorrow is Friday so I doubt it’ll be tomorrow. I did manage to wash some dishes but my house is still a mess I’ve had laundry in the dryer for days, and I’m usually pretty good about taking it out and folding it even if not making it to the “putting it away” step.

The health shit keeps coming. One of my dad's cousins, Tommy,, had a stroke a few days ago and has been moved to hospice. A few months ago he was diagnosed with Parkinsons. This cousin was like another brother when Dad was growing up, most of the stories Dad tells about his exploits as a kid begin with "me, and Lee and Tommy..." . Dad was driving him and Lee over to the hospice to say goodbye.
And this morning M's mom got a call...one of her brothers had a stroke either last night or early this morning and is in the ER and that is all they know.

I'm sorry, askye. The universe needs to pick another target.
sj, I hope it is a calming relaxed day.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
That is a lot of things to deal with at once. I’m very sorry.
I can't remember the last time I slept through to the alarm.
Ugh. Sheryl, I hope you were startled awake by a clock today and not earlier by your brain. Sleep until fully rested or the last possible moment.

Thanks Laura, I am glad to see your pixels back!
And I got a text, Tommy died this morning.
