Big claustrophobia yikes.
It was a problem my first few "dives". Thankfully, one of the attendants recommended bringing sudoku (up to that point I had just been bringing a book) and that engages just enough more of the mind that it got me over the hump to where I have a much easier time of it now. Also, finding that one of my watches was rated to 30 meters (we only "go" to 45 feet) so I can wear it in the chamber was a godsend. The sense of time gets a little wonky so it helps to be able to keep an eye on it for myself.
Yay for clot-free Tim! Enjoy your lunch! (Mediterranean sounds good!)
Tim’s ultrasound is all clear. We’re waiting to see if the doctor wants to prescribe a diuretic. And then we’re getting Mediterranean food for lunch.
It says something's about me that my response.to that was, "Good. Good. BRILLIANT!"
I mean, I think it says that I like Mediterranean food a lot, but... priorities?
I think my last one was 21. So I'm just over halfway done. The good news is that everyone says that the second half (of the 40 treatments) is when you really start to see results. So hopefully I'll be seeing some improvement soon
Good and yes to that!

We continue to get physical snail mail, and her inbox continues to fill up with AO3 comments to her great delight.
The package from Fay came yesterday, as well as a lovely painting from Stitch, and card from vw. Emily Stuckey's card came and mail just brought a card from ChiKat.
USPS tracking very helpfully informs me that my package will arrive later than expected and that it is somewhere between here and there.
Tomorrow I get to learn a manager lesson I'd rather not deal with: I have to fire an employee.
(Did I mention I'm a manager now? I am. I have 8 people reporting to me. This is weird.)
That's hard, Atropa. Best of... managing it, honestly. Congratulations on the team, though!
That sucks, Atropa. I think I've been fired 3 times. (I had a lot of jobs back when we moved a lot.) The first time the company was imploding, they "promoted" one of the people and had her fire 3 people the same day. I saw it coming a mile away and expected it. Since she had always been a bitch I purposely cried to make her feel bad. Yes, I am a terrible person. (and yet the memory makes me smile)
Hello, Zmayhem. Yay for mail. I bought a card but, uh, have not mailed it yet. Which is fairly typical.
Epic, that sounds like quite the ordeal. Fingers crossed on good results soon.
Hurray for Tim’s clear ultrasound! May the edema pass quickly.
meara, bummer about the tour. Autocorrect wants your name to be “meats,” which is just no.
Like, "Since it's the fourth indictment, you can have a mugshot as a treat."
I cannot WAIT for the memes (I don’t watch tv news, so that’s probably how I will see it).
