Y9 D233

I don't know if I said this already, but one of the hardest parts of this current situation is the clear lack of an end date. Usually when B goes out of town, I know exactly how long she is going to be gone. I can plan for her return. I have something to look forward to in that respect. This trip is just open ended. She will be home when things are done. A week? Two weeks? We don't know. So I have to live my life with the anticipation she could be coming home tomorrow. We are doing a touch base on the 22nd. That's basically another week and will give us an idea of how things are going. We thought last night was it, but it was just her mother being stupid. Old people do not know how to text. They forget crucial information or they put things in the wrong order. There was a catheter issue at 11pm est last night and the way B's mom texted her, she got up, hauled ass from where she is staying, only to get there and her mother being like 'oh I am just waiting for the nurse to come over'. Son of a ... The nurse ended up taking two hours and B didn't get back until after 2.

I spent the day not doing much of anything. Napped because I knew I was going out. And out I went at 5:30. Took the train downtown to meet up with some friends. They were in town for the Walking Dead Convention. I met them at their hotel which was nicely located right next to the train station. We went to the rooftop bar for food for me and drinks for them. Lots of drinks for them. I forgot how much they can drink. I had a charcuterie and two desserts. Hey, I couldn't decide so por que no los dos? I hung out with them until about 9:30 and headed home. Was back home by 10:30. Stayed up to make sure I was there if B needed me and went to bed around 11:30.

Today I am taking a ride out to Walmart. Why? Because B has been wanting an air fryer and I want to go look at them. They will have the best/cheapest selection and it will give me something to do. When I get back I am going to clean a little and vacuum. I did laundry yesterday but I didn't bother cleaning. I do teach next week at least 2 days so that will help take my mind off things.
