No plans for jackhammering!

decent 5.5 hours of sleep. 


I got to bed at a reasonable hour and did not instantly fall asleep. So interesting how much difference temperature makes. No sign of cat in bedroom when I woke up but she was happy for breakfast. Clean new catbox yesterday too.


Laundry now works so I need to change sheets and run bedding through dryer. 


Across hall neighbor mother and grandson were doing laundry late. Very late. So late that grandson this morning was crying so hard he threw up when it was time to go to school. And grandma swatted him at least twice that I heard after they came back. I think for various reasons there may already be an open CPS case so now I get to poke through reporting.


And another family related phone call returned. Limited but useful information. 


But at least there were no plans for jackhammering while I wanted to do a Zoom call and other work was happening at the computer lab.


Welcome to inching toward reopening. It's GORGEOUS outside.

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...
