Not fair

 3+ hours of sleep and then3+ more so not quite 7 hours


It's not fair. I go to bed early, 11 and some change. I wake up early, before 3. I feed cat who really should have to wait until 4. I drink some juice and go back to bed until before 7.

Dressed and two calls, three counting holiday plans call with my sister. PB&J for breakfast. But now I am exhausted and starving and can I just go take a nap and think about the wildfire imagery in the end of the DDT  song.


Family Christmas day plans are giving me a headache. No, going somewhere to take a walk and then going to our respective abodes to open presents over Zoom does not sound doable to my sister and I dunno about mom. I agree with sister, we really should not try to gather. I WILL figure out logistics of a visit to Mom. I will. I will. Boy do I know how to party. Boy am I sick of COVID.


My friend in the hospital who HATES needles was able to do her own blood thinner shot this morning, one of her milestones I assume before going home.


I am trying to convince myself to scrub out fridge before I put anything more in it but today would be a better day to do grocery shopping than tomorrow or Saturday.

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...
