...a pill organizer...maybe having one will remind me

I really like the free MediSafe app for my phone. I set alarms for when I take which pills throughout the day, and I set reminders for when I am due to order refills.

If I include the four fish oil pills and the two OTC multivitamins, my daily pill count is currently 21. The app really helps to manage all that.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That is sweet, askye.

Aw, Matilda.

I googled Cafe Enchante because I want to know all about charming cafes and it's also a video game? Or a place in a video game? Something.

It's right across from that church I posted on FB. So Geary and 26th or so. Kind of big but with nooks and crannies. A big shared table and a couch, but lots of little tables. Trompe L'oeil art on one wall: [link]

Oh, I was able to track it down I just thought it was funny that it was a little more of a challenge because the video game results came up first. It does look worth going to! I hope I remember next time I am in SF and want a coffee shop, picking a random nearby place does not always work for me. Not that it comes up very often, but giving myself plenty of time to get to appointments just in case does sometimes leave me wanting someplace I can sit and drink a warm beverage.

Because books.

Aw, Matilda. It's going to be hard for a while for sure.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Aw, Matilda.

I've been thinking about my father, given some of the conversations here. It was.... not great, having ten years to basically mourn his loss, gradually. And I'm not sure if it did make it any easier when he actually did die!

Anyway, his brother's just been diagnosed with Alz.

Oh, I’m sorry, Jesse

Awww, Matilda.

Today is fired. FIRED. I'm having to explain over and over why the solution to a problem that two of us have come up with is the best one, no just throw the fucking money at it already, had to spend hours fighting with D365 to get payment sent to a vendor, and now it looks like my faithful iPod is dying.

I'm sorry, Jesse. That has to be hard for the family, after what happened with your dad.

Atropa, you still have an iPod?! I'm sorry it's on its last legs.

Oh, geez, Jesse, I'm so sorry to hear that.

Oh, Matilda. So, so hard. Which doesn't even begin to describe it adequately. Nothing does.

I did go to the pool, and one of the lifeguards said,"Hi! Good to see you! It's been a while," which made me feel loved. Oof, it will take some time to get back up to speed. Which, of course it will; it's been months.
