Wow. I leave for a week and Gud looses and gains an entire job. Way to go, Gud!
Askye, I’m sorry about your aunt. C. diff is a bitch when you’re otherwise healthy. It’s gotta really suck as a co-infection. I hope you can go with your mom.
I’m glad the Zmayhem birthdays were good.
Sorry about the air issues, Midwest folks. We’ve had not good days here, but that’s mostly NC in July.
Hugs and hi-fives (as appropriate) to whomever I skipped and skimmed past.
A week without reading books or social media was an experience. I’m glad it’s over. But I got a lot more sleep, and my eyes enjoyed the break.
Nice to see you, Calli! Glad the break was worthwhile.
ETA: Safe travels, Laura.
Timelies all!
Friday night we went to a concert that was fun.(also full of swearing-it was the farewell concert for the main group and they called it the "So Long, and Thanks for all the fucks" show)
We picked up Mr. S yesterday around lunch time, and have him here until Tuesday.(Gary is taking tomorrow off) Last night was rough- Mr. S had a major meltdown, complete with throwing things. Then he woke up a few times during the night and came into our room, so nobody got much sleep. Hoping tonight and tomorrow night will be better.
Oh Sheryl, I do hope tonight brings you all peace and sleep.
Ah, way to end the weekend....went out to the mailbox and had a jury duty notice! Thankfully I can postpone it online, since it's for when I'll be out of town. Hoping that as that postponed date gets closer I can postpone again if need be, since I have no idea what'll be going on then. Also I served on a jury once and that was more than enough for me (ah the saga of men playing craps in an alley leading to murder leading to a gay Jamaican stool pigeon informing the DA of a plan to throw a jury for someone you knew in middle school and kill a witness for a guy you just met in jail....)
Happy Monday, and Happy Birthday to sj! I hope you have a wonderful day being spoiled by TCG and ltc. May this year bring an abundance of joy.
That is some jury drama, meara! My only jury experience was civil hilarity and a good time was had by all. (and justice served) How I have only served after having been registered to vote for over 50 years is a mystery. I am here to serve up justice!
I love jury duty! And actually just got a notice recently for the first time in at least 7 years. I asked to switch the location, which also switched the date, so I'm not actually going until next spring.
Happy Birthday, sj! Cake and confetti all around!
I've been called twice, I think, but neither time did anything go forward, so we just got sent home eventually.
What are people up to today and tomorrow? I have zero planned, but I will do a brief work thing today, and I think maybe clean out my closet. I cleaned out a junk drawer yesterday, so maybe I can ride that momentum.
And swim later.
I'm on my way today to my uncle and aunt's house on the ocean, where I hope it isn't too rainy for fireworks tonight.
