Exciting! We will see you at Jacqueline's memorial. We don't get in until that morning and then leave the next morning, but we will be around for Buffista shenanigans that evening.

We're probably flying in Thursday night. I'm trying to decide if I'm taking Friday off or working from whatever hotel we're in. Hmm.

Working on the calendar of the visit. You'd be surprised how many times I have to remind myself that Sunday is a weekend, Friday is a weekday (every ten minutes or so).

Our wings are not tired.

We'll meet in SF because I will be on a cruise with my sisters April 28 - May 6.

So, I am only halfway through the Oscar's, but so far I am enjoying it. I can never stay up so late, but it doesn't take too long to watch the next day since I zoom through the commercials. My first comment on the outfits is that I spent a lot more time saying how lovely or perfect for them than I did saying, what were they thinking! That was nice!

The "before" picture looks like the Blue Jay in my neighborhood.

You took me there when I visited in 2017! It had way more wood paneling than this diner.

That's cool, Tom! I love the notes on the original pictures... heh. "Booths... cool or ugly?"

So, I was evaluated and diagnosed with ADHD inattentive type on Friday. I'm currently in the "wow, life could've been so different if I had only had a clue," stage of wonder and grief-ish. And looking at what I always thought was depression, "but that doesn't seem quite right, but look at what happens in my life, so I guess it must be depression, and a failure of character for oh-so-many things not achieved right or at all" in a new light. Anyway, a thing I know many of you are familiar with. I'm not sure meds are in my future, though. Anything that increases heart rate is not going to make my cardiologist happy. Do have some resources and getting a referral for someone trained in CBT for ADHD, I think she said.

And I'm starting on semaglutide probably on Wednesday for its heart protective and potentially digestive tract slowing down effects with a side of couldn't hurt to lose some weight either. I mean, I have Type II, too, but my A1Cs are super low these days after all the crap from before, so... well, I mean, I'm supposed to, assuming insurance approves.

Big medical doings in JenWorld. Processing.

In other news, it's super duper windy here today, and my dog looked at me like, "What is this fresh hell?" when I took her out this morning. "You expect me to relieve myself in this, this... whirlwind?" This, after a couple of rainy days of which Princess Birdie also does not approve. Dog's life, man.

Cool beans! I enjoyed the note, hate floor, see what's under. It should be a delight when finished.
