The Great Monday Meltout.

 Barely 5 hours of sleep. 


Going back to bed would have been good but did not happen.


Snow around here stays soft and fluffy about two seconds before turning to slop
And already the snow disappears
from the tree and the window ledge

I have spent two weekends in a row Zooming with Quakers. It has been WONDERFUL. Space for the things I love and space to let the soap operas mull. But being wired is one reason I did not sleep. Also my body was all crampy maybe from sitting even before laundry.


Another risk of pandemia I guess.


And word comes tonight that who is eligible to get vaccinated when the fire department comes is getting adjusted again. Whine. Moan. Growl. OF COURSE I will cope.


I got 3 loads of laundry done last night. I forgot the magical red key and had to go back and get it. But 3 loads of wash also cleared out the shopping cart I needed to take the garbage and compost out this morning.

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...
