Christmas permitted early

Image
  Hah. I remembered I have Christmas lights on my lamp. So light without worrying about fake sunlight at inappropriate hours. Also my mother needs a lighted snow globe to use for a night light when here power is out due to the #BombCyclone The daily blossoms chronicle 2.9 hour s in bed and 3 ish between compline and bed      Nothing like trying to cook up a pot of chili while the power is flickering. Results rock and I will eat appreciatively for days. Other adventure: trying to find working cables with the right ends and charging block to charge my devices in case the power goes out. November weather is SO much fun

I love this guy's accent and the eager way he tells the story. 4.9 hours of sleep which is AWESOME until one realizes that one is due on Zoom in about 10 minutes. Thank heaven for the long purple hoodie bathrobe.

three days at once

Image
White and pink Christmas cactus both going strong.  Wednesday, Thursday, Friday mornings all in one post. Between 3 and 5 hours. Sorry today I am not tracking details. Wednesday's medical appointment: guess what. Come back for a biopsy on Nov 25. Bleah. Thursday: combination birthday parties at Mom's. Transportation fiascoes included dying phone but I finally made it. Takeout salad while nephew assembled a new cart for the toaster oven. EASY ride home with nephew's girlfriend. Friday Up at 6:45 to cofacilitate disability caucus for FCNL Annual meeting.

Bulwark against anxiety

Image
I don't actually care whether it is reasonable to expect a humble houseplant to be one's major barrier to unbounded anxiety. I just have to roll with it! Look! More blossoms 4 hours of sleep. About 10 pieces of junk mail moved from desk to recycling on the way out the door. Successful email exchange: new upload your own dang paperwork aspect of annual paperwork obligations. Looking arduous for me. So much cheerleading will be needed for LOTS of other less computing enthusiastic. Last week computer lab was lonely on Tuesday. I have plenty to do but it's lonely with no customers. If I weren't expected to have the lab open I would not turn on all the lights because they tire my eyes. Happy Birthday Mom.

Christmas cactus at night.

Image
Yeah. Yeah. I NEED to deal with lamps, but this is a fun experiment Pink blossoms cactus at night  3.7 hours of sleep. It takes an amazinglong time to do morning stretches, make bed, shower. 4 zooms and I could have attempted 3 of them in the glorious purple bathrobe. Glad I showered. 45 minutes on the exercise bike and a couple walks back and forth between buildings. Sun was out for a bit this afternoon but I did not have time for anything outdoors and had to just grow lamp myself. SO hard to keep feet on the ground amid all the paths to ANXIETY And tomorrow will come.
