Orxchestra instruments gone jazz OBOA NOMADE = Oboman + Symphonic Orchestra

5 ish hours of sleep.

I think I really need to set my clocks so I have some kind of alarm or at least know what time it is from whatever is playing when I wake up

Today was probably my last call with the great woman I have been "mentoring" for Blind Leaders. BLDP I have learned as much from her as the other way around. It was really gratifying to hear her talk about gaining confidence and especially from one of the case studies we had to team work about. Plus she was the one who herded us all into time slots and managed a tech blip.

Awesome to have blindness aware tech support and neither of us has any sympathy for a moment of "it's too hard" over something that did not seem hard to either of us, especially since work often brings things one has to learn on the fly even if it takes extra time.

And blindness local group has cool new energy and figured out that we can probably get to some elegant ways to go hybrid without as much fuss and muss as the first suggestion.

But here: some fun jazz involving orchestral instruments.

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...
