Timelies all!
Today has been better, though the day's not over yet.

Last night I went out for dinner, and while I was sitting in a booth with a drink, napkin, and cutlery a waitress (not the one who took my order) stopped to confirm my order was to go. I guess I didn't dress elegantly enough to fit in with the swanky Cheddars bar crowd!

Lol Matt. But do you really WANT to fit in with them??

I just finished my second appointment with my new therapist. I like her so far, but therapy is hard and I’m now exhausted.

Me too, Cash. Seriously, things were hard enough, before. And I really don't need character this badly. Sigh.

The other people in the bar were either throwing back shots like it was a minute to closing time, or accompanied by their shrieking kindergartners. So no, no I do not.

I'm tired and it's Monday. Nothing else to add.

Hello, all.
Sheryl, I hope Monday worked out well for you, considering tiredness and Mondayness.
Today is looking kinda good? I had an awkward conversation with my current manager about the possible good thing I asked for ~ma about earlier. He was supportive and it went well, and it makes me think things may be looking good for the move, since he was the one to bring it up.
On the other hand, my cat woke me up by sneezing in my face. Which a) definitely woke me up and b) made me jerk back while still half asleep and tweaked my neck. Then I had to get up to wash my face and the whole sleep concept was kind of hosed. So I could feel better.
On yet another hand, there's a flock of cedar waxwings eating berries on a tree outside my window, and I think they're nifty birds to watch. So there's that.

Thrive to spite them
I talked to Mom yesterday and she said she thought she had a cold. But this morning she texted me and said she has covid and a tele health appointment with the doctor. She's fully vaccinated and boosted and this is the first time she's gotten it so I hope it will just be really mild.
M's mom is sick. I did a covid test and it came up negative but I am going to retest tomorrow and see if I can get some new test kits from CVS.
I have been wearing masks at work but it looks like they have stopped providing them. I ordered some regular disposable ones and some heavier duty ones (I know there are 2 different types I don't remember which ones I ordered) and I'll see how I'll do. I know while I'm not having issues over heating like I was when I was taking duloxetine I'm still having issues with feeling really hot with the regular face mask. So I'll see how I do and go from there.
At least this time M's mom seems more inclined to stay in her room/in bed and not try to get up and do things. She usually picks up a grandson after school and takes him home but she's already agreed that M will do it while she's sick and she was planning on visiting a friend and has cancelled that.
