Teppy, my vote is you have fewer crises among your loved ones for a while. Maybe an entire week.

I'm eating my frittata for breakfast, and after some digestion time I'll go do my run.

Matilda's friend Iris slept over and they wandered up from the Garden Apartment for coffee, and toasted baguette with jam then went back down. Iris has a shift at Trader Joe's today. She's a hard working kid!

Update on Cupid the dog after her surgery: “Will try to plan a visit with the new and improved Cupid. She is running around like a little puppy now and smells so much better.”

Yay, Cupid!

We have filled our 100 Easter eggs with toys and candy, and only a very small amount of candy was eaten for quality assurance purposes. Then I did my 30 minutes on the bike and made a pedicure appointment for Wednesday.

Timelies all!

We went out for dinner last night, and Mr. S had a major meltdown/tantrum because we wouldn't buy him ice cream afterwords. He pushed everything off the table, including his drink, then got upset when we wouldn't get him another one. Luckily, we were at a Five Guys, so no broken glass. I still feel bad for the people who were in there with us(customers and workers both).

We got him back to the car and he settled down on the way home, then went to sleep at a reasonable hour.

This week is spring break, so we won't be getting calls from the school.(He'll be with the nanny)

I’m so sorry, Sheryl, about the difficulties you have been going through.

I bought a new Mac and a new Studio Display this week, so I have lots of boxes to get rid of. I’ve been also going through my closets trying to find an old laptop stand that I had at one point (I couldn’t find it), but now I have a whole bunch of clothes I need to take for recycling, too.

Since Lisa’s horse coworker comment on Friday, I’ve been watching horse farrier ASMR videos on YouTube.

I did manage to sort of organize/clean the garage, though there’s still a ton of junk in there that needs to be gotten rid of (either on buy nothing or at the special recycling center). One of these days I’ll manage that.

My old boss had a horse (still does actually) and it seemed like he was *always* seeing the farrier! He had hard to fit feet, evidently , and was forever throwing his shoes.

DH going in this morning to get a pseudocyst and the tail of pancreas + spleen removed. Laparoscopic, presumed to be uncomplicated, and he should be home by tomorrow. Good vibes appreciated.

Fun fact: It's the same surgeon who saved my bacon with the final surgery that put everything right for me at last back in 2020. Couldn't be in better hands in both of our opinions.

That seems really efficient -- just get them all in one fell swoop.

That kind of reassurance is awesome.

Sending the effective surgery and rapid recovery ~ma in abundance.

HD has gone to see a urologist (Finally!) this morning, but somehow managed twice already to go in the wrong direction and not find the place. He will be a half hour late, and of course, wants to cancel, but I told him just show up because they are always late anyway. I used my sternest voice so we'll see if it happens. eta: I just checked my app and his car is parked at the doctor's office.
