Plumbing

4ish hours of sleep in bed plus a couple hours of dozing upstairs when I did not make it into bed first.

More sleep would of course have been stupendous.

Instead, phone call with Little Sister about Mom. Looks like she is ready for some family conversations that have been needed for awhile. Stay tuned. Mom probably gets to go home today and ... and ... And Little sister gets to be the ONE visitor per stay at the hospital. I am fine with that.

 Little Sister is better than I am right now both about tracking details and pushing follow up pieces. And lord knows I have spent enough time in hospitals for

The orange and blue striped socks go better with the blue birthday dress than with the pink one
Selfie with Compression socks

both of them I am FINE with my sister being on the job for needed hanging out. 

And then, then, just when I would have gone back to bed, THE PLUMBER shows up, cleans out the kitchen sink trap, cleans out the bathtub. Bathtub is still not great but I will install the spiffy new TubShroom and see how much hair I can catch. Touching in all the videos, the guys and some women all talking about how much hair people shed. I tend to shower with my hair already braided except when I am washing it, but stay tuned...

Other than that, selfies are scary phenomena but I am having fun unabashedly and in multiple media streams flacking a COOL compression socks brand.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
