Boosted! With a very famous blind person and his wife!

4+  Hours of sleep with naps on either end.


Any COVID symptoms? Uhhh, have you looked at the pollen counts lately? Life was definitely better after I got up nd just let my nose run for awhile.


Once again, going back to bed looked possible clockwise but did not happen. Instead I caught the morning's last 9 express NB and then walked to a vax / second booster appointment at First AME. Arm historically does not get sore right away, but now that I mixed in other walking  cat food at TJ and lunch, I get to blame certain aches on the shot.


Scene at the church was SO mellow. So much community happening while things got set up. I am glad I rescheduled something that would have made me very twitchy about the relaxed pace.


And the famous blind person: I can see well enough to see someone came in with a white cane. The woman he was with sat between us, so I decided just to get out my noisy phone. He switched places with the woman who turned out to be his wife and we talked. I recognized his voice from previous Zoom calls. And I needed to reach out to him anyway. Stay tuned.


And a lovely evening photo from a couple days ago

The glory of a long summer evening

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...
