Happy Friday. My days currently consist of basic levels of work, reports and schedules of medical things for others and me trying to distract myself from such with knitting and movies.
Dad is recovering from the double spinal surgery a week ago. He went 10 days with solid food. It seems his gut is now doing all they wanted and he got lunch yesterday. He is progressing well and they are talking about releasing him to home. I’m dubious of his ability to do basic tasks (like get up from a horizontal bed), but we will see. I may be headed to them to give some assistance and mom some relief in the next weeks.
Tonight after work I dm driving to my friend’s to take her early tomorrow morning to get her port for chemo which will start 2/20. I may return home Sat night or stay overnight, just depends on how she is feeling and what she needs help with.
And my head is full of snot. Undignified.
I tested for COVID yesterday, negative. Maybe I’ll test again today at noon. Don’t think it’s that, seems very head cold or sinus.
Sinus~ma! I hope it clears quickly.
Good luck mabelle!
I have my annual review today with my boss who I do not get along with. So that will be rough. However, she is handing me off to a new boss after this due to some reorg so I am hoping to grit my teeth and celebrate after. Fingers crossed. I’ve been so sleepy all week…I really need the sun to start rising earlier so I can wake up easier.
Well, the books did end.
Wait, what? I know the TV show will end after the next season, but I thought the series was still ongoing. (Outlander) Does this mean I should actually force myself to finish book 10, which I got about 10% into and more or less died of boredom?
Good morning, and welcome Friday.
The weather has been erratic between downpours and merely cloudy, so it's been hard to get my runs in. I waited out a deluge yesterday and trotted out in the sunshine and got caught in the rain before I even got to the stadium.
I had just settled into the notion of cooking and cleaning and the rain just stopped. Bother.
I have survived my January of Many Events and Much Socializing. I'm glad I did every bit of it, but I'm planning on a quieter February.
Matilda's about to transition into baseball season, as soon as the weather lets up.
I also thought the books were continuing but the main characters are like in their 70s by now, and I doubt she wants to kill them off. But there was a whole drama of the 1980s too, with kidnapping and conspiracies, that I thought she was going to address? Conspiracies through time! Who even knows.
Yeah, last I heard there was going to be at least one more book in the series.
Wikipedia says 9 out of a planned 10 have been published. 9 is the last one I heard about but have not read. I think I stopped reading after 5. Man, the first one was over 30 years ago, that's wild!
I know people have real problems, but I have to write my self-eval this afternoon. I already tried using AI and that didn't help at all.
