It has been a slightly fraught weekend.
Ugh. I hope that things are better for him today. Always on the weekend, and yes, tomorrow they will most likely send him to the ED anyway.
Today I really need to accomplish more. Annoyed with my still weak wrist. It has been a couple months since I sprained it, but it is still unhappy when I try and challenge it. All I wanted to do was install 6 wood pegs. 3 in the bathroom for towels, and 3 in the entry for jackets. The wrist was too weak to screw in the 12 screws by hand into the wood walls, so I got the drill and that is heavy and requires pushing on the screw, which hurts too. I only got one done. Today I will try again with the wrist brace. If that doesn't work it goes on my son's list. He has been helpful. He and the GF came up and planted a bunch of tiger lilies and flowers along the front of the camp.
Everyone in this region calls their places camp. Every other region I have lived in it would be a summer home or cottage, or vacation home. Here people say, we are going 'up to camp'. (always up to, maybe because it is in the mountains?) I have to paint the camp. I have to shovel the snow off the roof at camp. When I call it camp other places people think kids summer camp group environments. Since this is where I was raised it isn't my summer cottage, it is camp. And, sheesh, the camp needs some tidying.
Happy, Happy Birthday, Steph!
Happy birthday, Steph! I hope you’re feeling better.
Happy Teppy Day!
How discouraging about your wrist, Laura.
I'm reminded of Louis CK's joke about how after a certain age doctors just shrug and say, "Welp, you've got a shitty wrist now." I hope yours gets less shitty, or maybe a lighter drill is in order.
I'm mostly recovered from my head cold but there's still some left where it's heavy and wet in my lungs, and I get an odd whistling through my sinuses as the congestion makes tectonic shifts.
When I woke up my mouth tasted like Satan's armpit. So not 100% yet. I ran yesterday but it made me really winded.
Thanks for the birthday wishes!

I'm glad I started antibiotics for this sinus infection yesterday, because when I woke up today, in addition to my sinuses hurting, my ears hurt and all of my top teeth hurt. So if the antibiotics would hurry up and do their thing, that would be great.
Do your thing, antibiotics! I'm sorry there is ick on your birthday.

Happy to report that the wrist brace helped a lot and I achieved 3 bathroom towel hooks. Now for the coat ones at the front entry. Unlike Florida people wear jackets and stuff here. They are these wood wedges which look good with my all pine wood interior. [link]
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Steph!
Ugh. It is very hot here(temps up near 100 plus humidity) and the AC in my car is not working well. Add to that hot flashes, and I am not very happy right now. Mr. S continues to disregard what we say(like taking off towards the pool though I ask him to stay until Gary's ready to go) and messes around in our stuff.
Breaking in to say Happy Birthday Steph!
I skipped and skimmed but
1. Yay lisah on the new job!
2. Yay smonster on the moviing!
3. Boo heat!
4. Glad askye's Dad got treatment.
5. Sorry to dispute Teppy, but Captain America is the best MCU movie! Winter Soldier has too many destroyed cars of random regular people. It made me anxious. And I love Steve and Bucky.
6. Swift recoverly to Beverly's husband.
And in me news, I had a TERRIBLE allergic reaction last weekend wherein one side of my throat swelled to the point I couldn't talk or swallow. Maria came with benedryl and we drove to the ER, but didn't go in, because I was better by the time we got there. I had been feeling "not right" for several weeks, and somehow the treatment for this allergy has fixed me and I went to my regular doctor. So now I am on Benedryl until I can get more answers from specialists, but all my brain fog is gone... Like brain fog I was blaming on menopause that I have had since before Christmas. And I had been having vision problems, which are also gone with the allergy treatment. But I felt like myself this week and weekend for the first time in so long!
