This visual of Matilda brings a smile.
I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Yay, I’m glad she’s treating herself right and enjoying the eyeshadow.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
Man, a migraine has laid me out for the entire day. I took Ubrelvy (my beloved) and the stabby pain went away in a few hours, but I was left with some serious vertigo. I don't care for that shit at all.

Always Anti-fascist!

ltc has 2 hour delay in the morning, which is just long enough to make me have to reschedule therapy.

I'm back home in Los Angeles as of late last night/early this morning. I'm currently booked to fly back to Florida on Friday so that I can give Kristin some more support over the weekend.
Overall we are still roughly at the same place with her Dad. Improvements in some areas, but declines in others. Still not a clear path to next steps. Hopefully some more information tomorrow. He's getting an endoscopy tomorrow because there appears to be a lesion in his esophagus. That is possibly what has been causing the issues getting an NG tube placed. He hasn't eaten in a week, so nutrition is part of what they are trying to solve to see if he's going to bounce back cognitively from all of this.
I'll try to keep updating here. Pix is occasionally reading, but told me to keep all of you updated. She's doing occasional updates over on FB, but she doesn't have a lot of energy for interaction.
We both love you all and are so thankful for the support of this community.

It's good that you can make the trips to support Pix and to let your dear FIL feel your love as well. It is such a roller coaster waiting for the next text and trying to get answers.
It's Monday and I am full of don't wanna.

Hard same! Despite (or maybe because) lounging and sleeping for most of the weekend. I feel like I got rested and now I want a day off to get sone things done at home. But nooooooo, work. Poop!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I started my Monday at the dentist, always an awesome start to the week.

3-day weekend coming up, msbelle? January is so weird.
I am not into working today. I am not into being awake today, actually. FIrst week of WFH Monday, and I appreciate that I could drag myself out of bed a little later and, you know, be home, I'm not doing so great with the "work" part
