I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

human zombie bone

Fun! As much as bone grafts can be. Mac will be getting cadaver bone in his foot in a week which I assume they meant human cadaver. He failed to get either time or place of surgery at his appointment while I was on vacation, so I’m hoping he contacts them soon for that. I’ll only nudge so much for my own mental health. One thing vacation showed me is how much happier I am when I am only dealing with myself and what I need. Selfish feelings aside, it was good to note. I didn’t bite my nails, have gi stuff or anxiety rushes for a full week.

I voted yesterday, so happy to fill those bubbles.

Sheryl is a residential facility a long term option for Mr. S? Does he not act out with the nanny?

Happy Birthday to you, Brenda! Hope it's a fab day and a year ahead filled with lots of fun.

msbelle, I voted yesterday, too, and same.

I mail my 500 postcards to AZ on Saturday, may they do their job and get some Dems out to vote with that little nudge.

I messed up on enough of them (even though they sent extras) that I have 5 outstanding to write, so I ordered some generic but pretty cactus postcards in keeping with the AZ theme. They're supposed to arrive today.

Mostly now just feeling the anxiety rise as the big day approaches, but I'm actively trying to remind myself that my anxiousness is making zero difference in the election outcome, so, like, read a book and have some tea instead. Might also try to do some more campaign stuff just to try to not feel helpless.

Then there's Halloween candy to be bought. We didn't get too many kids last year, but one must be prepared!

Postcarding is one part I can't really do, because it's a three-handed job. also, no matter how lax you are, you don't really deserve my handwriting. I tried it once, though.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Well, my remote work from MI request has been approved. Now to find somewhere to live in southeast MI that I can afford and that is ok with cats. I have two apartment viewings scheduled for 11/9, and I’m waiting to hear back on two more.

That said, if anyone knows a guy (gender neutral) trying to rent a 2-bedroom in Oakland or Washtenaw counties, hit me up.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Msbelle, what's up with Mac's foot? It's obvious that I missed something important. He's too young to have such problems!

Useta-could.

I am feeling chuffed. I did an interview for one of my prostate cancer support groups six months ago. It was edited down to about five minutes and posted on the group's YouTube channel. It just passed 13k views. That's more than ten times the traffic of any of the other vids. I don't know really how much benefit it has been to the group in terms of recruitment or support, but I'm pretty pleased with it anyway.

That's great, dcp. Congrats.

Yeah, dcp, a good feeling. Had that happen with an advocacy video, once. But I also forced people to look at it, not fully organic.
