Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Heh.

Oh no, Laura. Like you guys don't have enough to deal with!

I'm vaguely worried about getting covid from the wakes last weekend, but every time I think about it, I get a sore throat, so I don't think that's an actual symptom.

Yikes Laura that does not seem good! Good luck.

I like the Canadian hammock. I need to get my own hammock out…

Ouch, Laura. Yeah, having it looked at is the thing to do. What a pain in the... well, abdomen I'm sorry.

I have no current Covid fears, but that's when I'll end up with it probably.

Cindy! Lovely to see you. Hope you and family are doing well.

I loved -t's meal and drink reportage!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Successfully went for a run outside (not on a treadmill!) and then went to breakfast before picking up my car. So that feels like a complete day already and I haven't started work yet. I am already planning on slacking hard as far as work-work goes.

And I just discovered that I have been walking around with my shirt on inside out all morning. Well, at least I'm not in the office.

That does sound like a day's worth.

You've got to plan ahead.

I kind of wanted to get back to my routines after my birthday but the painters are coming this morning to do Matilda's room (after she goes to work), and I'm realizing how much it nails my ass to the chair awaiting contractors and deliveries and whatnot.

I haven't run for almost two weeks but was getting more than my usual share of steps and flights walked while moving. But I'd like to figure out how my run routine will work now that I'm further (by ten minutes) from the stadium.

Changes to routine are hard! I am confident you'll figure it out. Exciting to have Matilda's room painted!

I keep seeing local bands with intriguing names who turn out to be Yacht Rock. Maybe I will actually go see one of them. Yachtley Crew is a great f-ing name, but their gigs are too expensive to go to just to satisfy my curiosity. Now I've run across I am the Octopus and I have even less idea of what to expect from them but there appears to be no cover where they are playing although it is across a bridge and out of the way to get to. I should probably just go to the lounge that's a couple blocks away and listen to whoever happens to play there rather than be drawn far afield by these intriguing names. If I were to go out, that is.

Thrive to spite them

Mom came down we are waiting for lunch. It's busy and we are outside where it's kind of hot but there is shade and a breeze. But it's busy and I had therapy this morning and it wasn't anything big but I feel really off.

I checked my schedule next week and I'm working 5 days in a row and I don't think I can handle that

Mm, that does sound like more of a ramp up than would really be a good idea.

Yeah, that seems like a lot, askye.

I am driving up to Philly tomorrow for my ring design appointment. Very excited. I'll see my niece, too, which is a great bonus. Depending on how tired I am, I might even just stop part way home and have myself a little mini hotel vacation! But only if I'm too tired to drive it all in one day.
