Finally ordered

5 ish hours of sleep


watching news videos is addictive but MAYBE I need to make a point of scheduling in some music. Also meditating about not liking effects of one approach to an issue and not wanting  but tryign to decide to try to convince myself I need to try plan b. 


Anyway I was awake when Mom texted after getting home from the ER.


And going back to bed did not happen this morning.


White insulated ice cream delivery pouches
Can we please return and reuse
these things?

But I did wade through ordering groceries. I have mixed feeling about sending Jeff B to mars of whatever and I have NO qualms about ordering the bare minimum I need to get free delivery. Or saying DO NOT substitute with the item that costs 40% more only substitute something of equal or lower price or not even that.. SO I am sure I am dream customer but at least the app showed acceptable delivery windows.


And speaking of delivery windows and actually buying ice cream instead of chocolate milk, I would really LOVe to be able to return and reuse the spiffy insulated sleeves.


Other than that my now blind nurse friend needed space to remember being aon critial care alert in Bangor ME on 9/11 until they learned that the mass expected mass casualties all died in the fire.


And since she is currently underemployed in her current joint replacement discharge planning gig because we are losing half a 9/11 every day due to COVID and hospitals are full and regular surgeries are again postponed, nurse friend has time for another cool project AND for thought advice for my mom involving misalighed vertebrae and possible neurology issues.


Anyway, refrigerator is now scrubbed and new microwave awaits only my looking up the instruction manual on the web so I don't have to read teeny tine print in the one that came in the box. And other things are OUT OUT OUT.

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...
