Tragically underinformed about iconography

About 6 hours of sleep all told including going back to bed.


God had weird ideas about where I was to go or not go today. I MEAN to stay up for the Kiev morning / pacific time Quaker worship. So far i have not gotten there. I also popped on and popped off the other worship this morning. And more and different hiccups involving rider inattention and the bleepiest bleeping elevator aggravations including why are elevator buttons so hard to figure out. Anyway it was an AWESOME day just to skip the light rail and bus all the way to Mom's.


The fam held it together. No one falling out from overeating. No trying to be supportive while someone with LOTS of hand issues keeps dropping things in the kitchen. Simple but nice food. Everyone able to hit positive notes. My sister and I have this joke boxing thing that just cracks my brother in law up. The boxing bloves are metaphorical but I forgot them and it was already time to go home.


Medical appointments tomorrow. Why the bleep do I have to go through the checkin questions twice online.


NO idea what the patterns represent

My two friends I was fretting about in StPb are doing okay. Grandma of toddler across the hall not so much. She died suddenly yesterday and her mother and daughter needed to tell me this morning. Does it matter for them if someone dies in the middle of Ramadan?


Look what turned up at Good will.


And who knew that after Compline on the third Sunday of the month, there is organ performance.

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...
