I'm doing better today. Not great, but better. Part of that comes from having a good therapist, part coming from the stupid week being over. Yesterday I worked with my therapist how to communicate something with B. I came home and used it. It worked wonderfully. Basically they have been spending a lot of time with their new friend and I wanted to make sure I wasn't exhibiting any behavior (something in my control I can work on) that was causing them to want to not spend time with me. Their paraphrased response:

"Our relationship is built on a solid enough foundation that we can have a break from each other without doing damage. I am trying to build and establish a group of friends which takes some effort so I am doing more than I normally would to cement the friendships. You're not doing anything that is causing an issue."

Okay. I can handle that. It all comes down to how you shouldn't tell an autistic person to just do something. Brain doesn't get it. Too many why questions. But if you say "do this because this will happen if you don't" then it gets understood. Basically what I needed to hear from B.

I did chuckle a bit last night though. They experienced something with their new friend that I had issue with last weekend. The new friend is a stoner through and through. Hell, they work at a pot shop packaging all day. 8 hours a day, 5 days a week of mind numbing tedious work just packing up pot. I would literally kill myself after one day of that, but their happy. My issue is they are on stoner time. And stoner plan making. "Yeah let's go at 9" turns into 10:30 and a different set of plans. That happened to B last night. They were supposed to meet at 9 somewhere and they didn't arrive at their destination until 11:30. Yeah. Nope. 

Today by contrast, I am heading back to the Farmer's Market. At 6:30am. With someone who confirmed our meeting place and time at 7pm last night. That's how I roll. THAT works much better for me. So hopefully this time I will have a better experience. Wish me luck.

Want to feel old?

April 29th 1992, there was a riot on the streets tell me where were you?

30 years ago today. 30 years ago I watched on my tv a man pulled from a truck and beaten in the streets of LA.

While you were sitting home watching your TV, I was participating in some anarchy.

Yeah, I did watch it on tv. But it was in my backyard basically. I was stunned. Shocked. Couldn't understand it.

But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King. It's this fucked up situation and these fucked up police.

There's the sad part. Nothing has changed. 30 years down the road and we've learned NOTHING. Not a goddamn thing. We're still having cops shoot people in the back in broad daylight. We haven't moved forward one step. If anything, we've gone backwards. How fucking sad is that?

Let it burn, wanna let it burn.

Yeah Bradley, so do I. Let it all burn to the damn ground and start over. Stop billionaires from buying things on a whim. Stop companies from raising prices while making record breaking profits. Stop the pain. Stop my head from hurting. Maybe in the next 30 years, please?

Y13 D336

Oh boy, it's going to be a whopping 55 today! Break out the shorts! Sadly that will happen to many around here. Me, I will continue to bundle thank you very much. 

Another useless day yesterday. Docs docs docs. Woo. So much fun. Shoot me now, okay?

Made pineapple chicken rice bowls for dinner. Started watching Russian Doll season 2 together. Went to bed.

Today I have a webinar. Whee. Is this month over yet? I am so close to escaping. Even if my first trip is tiny, it's an escape. Just to be somewhere else. Not asking for much.

Y13 D335

Yesterday started off with a big pile of shit. Literally. At first I thought it was cats, but we figured out the dog was having more tummy troubles and had an accident. I figured this out when I went to take her out later and her poop was pure liquid. Good times abound. Lots of shit in my day. So much fun.

Fielded 10,000 emails yesterday. Worked on a doc. Hid in the shadows as much as possible. Had leftovers for dinner. Trying to eat through everything in this house. Doing my best on that thanks. Almost there. 

Watched some TV, finished Days Gone, went to bed. Weather is back to a whopping 40 degrees which is just peachy. I planned out my next cut and color with my stylist yesterday. This should be interesting. Going blonde for the summer. I still have a blonde piece on file they weren't able to send back so I have to use it up. We're going to keep it as blonde as we can to minimize the dye damage. So three months as a blonde. Wish me luck on that.

Nothing planned for today. Same shit different multiverse.

Y13 D334

Both of my co-workers decided to finally start doing some testing of the new classes I wrote. At 4pm my time. Seriously? From 4-8 I was fielding questions right and left and then this morning I wake up to 9 emails. Does nobody understand how anxiety inducing it is to wake up to emails like that? One or two is one thing, but 9 that were all sent after 11pm my time is just fucking annoying. I am so done.

Shit like that is what I worked on yesterday. All day. Had leftovers for dinner. Went to bed. 9 days until I get new hair. 16 days until I get on a plane. 

Y13 D333

Sometimes everything is alignment and I have the good sleep. That was last night. Not too hot, not too cold, pillow just right, you know the drill. It was the first night I didn't have to use the heated blanket. It's going back down to cold the rest of this week, but the two days of nice was enjoyable. Even turned the air on for a bit yesterday. 

I had a productive day even with other people in my house. I refused to let B's people pleasing interfere with my Sunday plans. I had insufficient sleep, but that's a whole other story. Got up, washed my truck, went to two grocery stores, Made a lemon cake. Prepped dinner (BBQ chicken, asparagus, slow cooked mashed potatoes).  Did four loads of laundry including bath towels and kitchen rags. Replaced the batter in one of our alarm sensors. Took B to target after dinner. Got new sunglasses because mine broke on saturday. Played some video games (almost done with Days Gone). Took the dog out. Gave one of the cats a bath.

Productive.

And now we're back to regularly scheduled bullshit. A little over two weeks until I can get the hell out of here. It can't come soon enough.

Y13 D332

 Little over a month and this year of entries is done. Another year of my life gone. Another year closer to the grave. 

I went outside yesterday and it fucking sucked. Not because of the activity, but because there were people there AND the people we went out with are the kind of people I don't like. We went to "Eastern Market". It's a large collection of sheds and businesses that combines flea market and farmer's market. It was the first really nice day we've had so of course everyone is out. Don't blame them. We were SUPPOSED to meet at 11am. Yeah, no. Fucking stoners who move so goddamn slow. We didn't start looking around until 12:30. Here's the thing, I would go back there for sure. But I would go at 6am when they fucking open. Or realistically be there around 8 or 9. A lot of the stuff I would have been interested in was already cleaned out. I did get some decent produce, but not much else. Annoying.

Then B went out with same said friend to celebrate other friend birthday. She literally got home 90 minutes ago. What bugs me about it is this means another fucking day of me having to watch HER dog and do everything around this goddamn house. Tired of it. Just tired of it.

The highlight of yesterday? I had sushi. It was good.

Y13 D331

 Awake. Taught a half day yesterday but was pretty stressed out about it. We haven't taught these folks since our switch to zoom and they had the wrong class info. Luckily I start the classes so early I was able to get everyone squared away in time. But it was close. Then at 2, I did an internal webinar. That took until 4pm. I was done. Made food, watched tv, went to bed.

Y13 D330

 Literally nothing to report in about. I taught, I ate, I watched TV, I went to bed. That's it. The schedule is the same today. Nothing of any excitement going on here.

Good? Bad? I don't know any more. If you've ever seen Nobody, that opening montage is how I am feeling.

Y13 D329

 I don't know what TV gods have smiled upon me, but a number of shows I like all came back in the last couple of days. A second season of Russian Doll dropped. But more exciting is the new season of Derry Girls and Inside No 9. I watched the two available episodes of DG last night and was laughing like crazy. I needed that for sure. I love that damn show. Never thought we would ever see a season 3. Need all the positive news I can get. 

Spent my day teaching. Excellent group. No major issues. Made joe's special for dinner. Played video games. Went to bed. It was freezing outside and still is. It's supposed to rain the next two days but in theory it will be nice this weekend. I will believe it when I see it. Currently it's 48 outside which is better than it's been, that's for sure. Saturday we're looking at our first day of the year in the 80s. Let's see if that happens.

Y13 D328

 So how'd you spend your Tuesday night? Me? Oh the usual, 4 hours at the emergency pet hospital because the dog was throwing up like crazy. The typical. She must have gotten into something we didn't see her get into and it upset her stomach. We wouldn't have gone but it was a lot of vomit in a short time and the last one had a pink tinge. She scratched her throat or something from all the vomiting. Fucking dog. I didn't get to sleep until 11 and now I have to teach today. Fun times. 

It's still arctic temperatures here too which isn't helping a goddamn thing. Just making me cranky and tired. At work I am being whored out to this new third party company and I don't like it. My coworker is about to quit and I am just done. 

So that was Tuesday. Is it May yet? Can I get the fuck out of town? Did book a July trip last night. Burning through American miles. Going to Charlotte for 5 days. But I still have to make it through fucking April. 

Y13 D327

It snowed for at least 12 hours yesterday. I say at least 12 because I went to bed. It might have kept snowing for all I know. Fuck this place.

Watched "The Batman". Slow. Drags. Useless. Horrible Bruce Wayne. 3 hours of my life I will never get back.

Worked on shit. Don't care. Bye.

Y13 D326

Finally got some much needed sleeping. Just woke up. Almost 8 hours of sleep. Man I haven't done that in a while and it felt good. No alarm, no obligations, just sleep. 

Had an okay day yesterday. Went to my hair appointment and was out of the house for almost 2 hours. The most I have been outside in a while. The weather sucks though. It's doing that deceptive shit where the sun is out but it's still 44 degrees. So you see these knuckleheads in shorts and revealing clothes freezing their asses off. Heck, I had a sweater on and was still cold. Right now it's 24 and there is snow predicted for tomorrow. WTF? On a positive note, next weekend it's supposed to be in the 70s. I will believe it when I see it, ya know?

Started a roast for tonight's dinner. 31 hour cook time. Had leftovers last night. Watched TV with B. I just wanted to be in the same room so didn't care what was on and ended up watching 3 episodes of Bridgerton with them. Can't say as I like the show, but it was what it was. I mostly just enjoyed spending the time together. 

Played some video games, straightened the house a bit, and that's about it for my Saturday. As of right now, today is poised to be a repeat. Good.

Y13 D325

 Took me until 4pm yesterday, but I got that stupid document done. 64 pages of demos. What a beast. I am just happy to have it off my plate finally. That was of course, the bulk of my day. I also managed to go to the grocery store (only spent $250 this time on groceries, yay?), pay bills, stop at the vape shop, and order dinner in. A productive day for sure and an exhausting one. Today I have a hair touch up appointment, starting a roast, and going to try and relax. We'll see how that goes.

Y13 D324

 Okay, it's friday, it's payday, and there's a shit ton of things I need to do. I have to go to grocery store, the post office, therapy, pay bills, transfer money, handle our taxes, and somewhere in there finish a class. Yeah, this is not going to be a light friday. That would just be logical. 

Taught day two and ended up doing an hour of mentoring after class. Tried to go out after class but because of the time and the construction, turned around after sitting in traffic on side streets and just came home. Ate whatever random shit was in the fridge, watched some tv, and went to bed. Too stressed out and over stimulated to do anything more than that.

This weekend I have no plans. Let's see how far that goes. I am sure somehow, someway, I will get roped into doing something.

Y13 D323

The song about how everyone hates you when you're 23 turned 23 yesterday. Irony, what a bitch. 

Gilbert Gottfried dead. Death, what a bitch.

Ukraine still under attack. Need I say it? Yes. Putin, what a bitch. 

The world is full of these bitches. They suck.

Taught. Same group as last month so no issues or problems. Finished at 4:30. Had crap food for dinner. Played video games. Went to bed.

Life, what a bitch.

Y13 D322

Here we go again. Another day another existential crisis. Yay. Just tired. Next month can't come soon enough. Even the smallest respite is desired right now.

I worked on docs all day. Took care of the dog all day. B went to the cabin with her grandfather. Not for pleasure but to help him assess what needs to be taken care of before summer. They drove 8 hours round trip to spend 2 at the cabin. Um, fuck that? No envy here. I would rather be at home than that. But it did mean I was once more taking care of someone else's dog. This is why I have not wanted one - I love her to death but another needy fucking animal. Walks. Feeds. Pets. Constant. Nope. I should have lizards. Seriously. 

Watched tv. Made dinner. Went to bed. Not in that order.

Class today and tomorrow. Need to prep.

Y13 D321

"Lookout, I am going to Idaho!" is not a sentence I thought I would ever utter, but yet, here we are. In 44 days I will be heading to Boise to spend time with my sister and niece. Why? Mostly to hit the status challenge on Delta. No lie. I needed a trip that would push me and between this one and the CA one on the 12th, I should hit the challenge with no problem. The ID trip gets me 15,000 miles out of 18,000 which means the CA one should net me similar. If I do this right, I will finish the year with 50 or 60,000 on Delta. Not a bad way to start off. Keep my new status until April of 2023, then maybe the world will let me travel more like in the olden days. Maybe.

Other than booking this trip, my big accomplishment yesterday was document writing. Whee. More of that today. Tacos were had for dinner. Not much else going on. Taxes arrive tomorrow. $1300 owed between federal and state. Little over 3 weeks until I get new hair. Have a maintenance appointment Saturday, then 3 weeks after that get a new piece. Just in time for my May travels. 

Not really a whole hell of a lot going on. Weather is slightly nicer temperature wise, but it's thunderstorms. So not an improvement in my mind. Dear god, the next month is going to suck in anticipation of getting out of this house. Sigh.

Y13 D320

Monday, monday. How I hate you. Ooh yeah. Monday you suck. No wait. It's not the day that sucks, it's the capitalistic society we live in that causes us to work 5 days a week during specific times that have been deemed as "work hours" by our corporate overlords. Sorry Monday, it's not your fault.

Didn't do a whole lot yesterday. Did some more work in the office cleaning up and rearranging. Finished Book of Boba Fett. Played some video games. Took a nap. Did laundry. That's really about it. B's dad came over to help us take a load of trash to the dump and fix our sliding glass door. It was stuck and not sliding well. B wanted Wendy's for dinner of all things. I chose not to eat it and instead made me food in the house. This is the way.

Today is docs. Two days of teaching this week. Booking a trip to ID this week to visit my sister. Making the miles baby, making the miles.

Y13 D319

I did so much yesterday it's not even funny. I went to bed around 10:30 so exhausted I fell right to sleep and didn't wake up until almost 7:30. That's a lot for me but it shows how tired I was. What did I get done? Well, sit back and relax while I tell you.

It started with me doing a cat room clean. Full floor scrubbing, litter removal, etc. That's a huge amount of work on its own. But it was only the tip of the iceberg. My new desk arrived and that was the bulk of my day. Assembly, setup, arranging, huge amount of work. Am I happy with it? I don't know. I went from basically using a craft table to having a real desk. It's an adjustment. It's much smaller, which was the intent, and therefore I am having to be more careful about things strewn all over it. Everything I need fits, but it lacks additional sprawl space. We will see how that works for me. Where it does succeed is in cable management. It has a cable track on the back and that alone is awesome. Now there aren't 10,000 cables on the floor for animals to get caught up in. I was able to greatly reduce down the amount of cabling in here. On top of that, I managed to eliminate some cables and an entire power strip thanks to some creative plug rearrangement. Huge huge improvement with that. It's shorter than my old one though and I am having trouble adjusting to the height. Plus it wasn't meant for the weight of four monitors, a mic, two lights, etc and it feels a little wobbly. I might need to reinforce it in a couple of place. Overall though I think I am happy. 

I then made dinner for three. Our friend was feeling lonely and came over for dinner. I made steaks, fondant potatoes (look it up), baked broccoli, and roasted garlic spread. Was very happy with dinner, but it took effort. Then dessert, clean up, taking the dog out during the day, cleaning up after the desk, oh and three loads of laundry including towels. So yeah, it was a busy day. Today I am doing nothing. Don't care what anyone wants or needs, I am not doing it. I am sitting on my ass doing nothing. Of course that's after I break down all the recycling, take out cat litter, put away dishes, but then nothing I swear!

I have a moderate week upcoming. Two days of teaching again. Should be okay on that front. I did make a decision about something. I need to hit a certain number of miles with Delta, right? Well I think at the end of May I am going to go visit my sister. ID is a decent jaunt and should nab me another good chunk of miles. Between CA and ID I should hit around 12-13k of the 18k I need. One more trip in June and boom, done. I am waiting for that new Amex to show up first though. I want the bonus miles out of this.

Alright, time to knock out basic chores so I can have time to myself.

Y13 D318

I'm getting there just cool your jets. I know it's 7:30am already. I am moving slow because it's Saturday and I am under no obligation to anyone today thank you very much. I'm allowed to have days where I don't have to move fast. 

Yesterday was meh. No other word for it. B was gone most of the day once more helping a friend who needed medical assistance. It didn't really matter too much as I was working during the day, but it was another night where I was stuck in the house with dogs and cats as my only companions. My desk is delayed, the weather is shit, and I am stuck in the house. Good times.

I don't know what else to say today.

Y13 D317

Yesterday was major ups and downs. Not like little swings either. I was doing really well or really shitty depending on the time of day. My class, well one person in particular, didn't make this any easier. Look, if you're in a technical role that requires you to be a developer of sorts, then there is certain knowledge and skills I expect you to have. Being able to copy and paste and understand the concept of "open your preferred text editor" is one of them. One of my students just couldn't grasp the concept of opening notepad or similar. Seriously? WTF is wrong with you?

Then I went to make dinner (teriyaki pineapple chicken on rice) and the one cat just wouldn't shut the fuck up. Like it was sending my nerves into the stratosphere. I would lock her up and she would still scream. Then I set aside a small bowl of food for the dog and while my back was turned one of the other cats jumped on the counter and ate it. Are you kidding me right now?

At the complete other end of the spectrum I heard back from Delta. They have status matched me and I now have 3 months to meet certain goals to keep it for one year. Okay. My May flight hits like 40% of the goal in one shot so no issue there. They gave me their highest tier too. Nice. 

But the coup de grace of yesterday was B finding me stuff at a thrift store. They found me a 1964 fully working easy bake oven. Yep. Plus some nice pants and a sweater. I needed a little gift with the day I was having and this was a real nice surprise. It was really appreciated. 

We watched some tv together, played some games, then went to bed. Therapy today, document writing, and my new desk is *supposed* to be here today. There's no movement on the FedEx website (wait, let's go check...nope) since Monday so I don't know if it is really going to arrive or not. I hope so, but not counting on it unfortunately. If it does, that's my plans for the night. If not, well, don't know.

Y13 D316

Took the dog to the vet yesterday. She had to have mouth surgery for her teeth issues. Three teeth had to be pulled. Poor baby was in so much pain last night. She was just whimpering and confused from the pain meds. I felt awful for her. I also felt awful for my bank balance. $950. Pets are not cheap people. 

I spent the day working on docs and moving one of my machines. My new desk arrives today or tomorrow and I need to start prepping for it. Made some desk space by moving my Plex server. Made a huge difference in how much is on here. Should be able to fit everything nicely on the new desk. Look like a grownup. Yeah right.

Made seafood crepes for dinner. Watched some TV while trying to keep the dog comfortable. Went to bed around 10. Teach today. Is it the weekend yet?

Y13 D315

50 days until a new year. Less than two months. Wow.

Taught yesterday. Normal time. Was nice. I was a little tired when I was done from getting up early, but worth it to be done at 4:15. We had pulled pork for dinner. Was good. New game dropped yesterday. One we can both play. Lego Star Wars. Yes, a new version of that. But it's huge and is awesome. It's every single game in a giant universe. I played for about 2 hours with B last night. Enjoyed every minute.

Today's another doc writing day. Joy.

Y13 D314

I got up early this morning because I am teaching today and FOR ONCE it's not at stupid times. It's back to my nice normal 8:30-4:30. This makes me happy. My students are in PA, dealing with the same shit weather I am, in the same time zone I am. Works for me. 

I forgot to tell you all what happened the other day when I booked on Delta. At checkout they had an apply for our SkyMiles card and get 50,000 miles and a credit on this flight. I said you know what, why the fuck not. So now after nearly 11 years, I am once more an American Express card holder. Gold, $25,000 limit. How far I've come in the last decade. Pretty proud of that given all the shit I went through with them. I am also much more mindful and hyperaware of the mistakes I have made in the past and vow to not repeat them. 

Dicked around too much yesterday. I struggle with the demo writing section of classes. It just doesn't hold my attention. I need to get it done. I will buckle down tomorrow and knock it out. Just couldn't focus yesterday. Got some stuff done, but not as much as I would have liked. 

We had chicken salad sliders, soup, and fries for dinner. Nice warm hearty meal for the fucking snow outside. Oh yes, it snowed again yesterday. So over this. In another week we're supposed to start getting real spring. I will believe it when I see it.

Time to get prepped for class. Whee!

Y13 D313

 Slept pretty soundly last night. Was having some weird dreams. Nothing that made sense. But not like too scary, just weird. Woke up with Kokomo in my head. Which to me always felt like it would be a good horror movie song. It's just too damn cheery, you know what I mean?

Had a pretty good day. Made a pork loin to have for the week for lunches and dinners if needed. We went to the grandparent's house around 2. They ordered pizza and we had cake. We left when the conversation drifted to political things. I didn't want to get into any arguments or fights so we said our goodbyes and left. The pizza got to B and they took a nap. I played video games and watched tv. Went to bed around 11.

Two days of teaching this week with three days of document writing. Need to finish a set of 12-15 demos and I will have another class in the bag. New desk comes on Thursday and need to be prepped for that. Going to do some major desktop overhaul to support it. This should be interesting. Not much else going on right now. No complaints, just observation.

Y13 D312

Boomer mode engaged:

I remember when going to the grocery store and spending $300 meant you were stocking up for the month or having a party or had to buy something big. Now, $300 barely gets me 2.5 weeks of food. Even with all of the coupons I used last night AND $6 off from "rewards". Seriously, what the fuck?? We went shopping last night to avoid going this morning and man did it suck. Price gouging is in full effect at the grocery store let me tell you what.

Bah.

During the day I did nothing as planned. It was nice to wake up to a perfectly clean house. I didn't have any typical Saturday morning stress. I made a pineapple pound cake which came out awesome, played video games, took the dog for a walk, and otherwise enjoyed my day off. Then we went to the store where the prices were killing me. 

Came home put away groceries, lamented about how much we got, went to bed. Today I am going BACK to the other store to get some small things we couldn't find at store one. Then at 2 we go to the grandparent's house for follow up birthday celebration for the sister. 

Oh, I booked my trip for may. I am flying Delta. Yep. American fucked me over, dropped my status, and had zero flights into the airport I needed for the days I needed. So guess what fuckers? After 20 years you may have finally lost me as a customer. Suck my ass. I will use up my miles and that's that. No more admiral's club money, no more me. Bah. Let's see how this trip goes.

Y13 D311

 This is the latest I have slept in months. It's almost 8am already. I am flabbergasted. Boondoggled even! I went to bed around 11, so almost 9 hours of sleep! Dear me. Why did I sleep so late? Because I exhausted myself last night. I spent 4 hours detailing this house. Not cleaning, detailing. So here's the gist of it; things around the house have been slowly driving me nuts. If you walked in our house you as an outsider wouldn't think it was messy. But I see all the things you don't. The little dirt on the baseboards. The shelves that have a layer of dust on them. All that. It's been piling up in my head and I have been wanting to clean. Earlier in the week I asked B if they would leave the house today for a while, take the dog, and get out so I could clean. Yesterday around 3, they said, hey, I am having trouble finding some place to go tomorrow, how about I get out of your hair tonight and let you clean. Okie dokie. That works even better. I finished up my work related stuff around 4 and went at it. I took one break for dinner and a quick ride to the vape shape. Otherwise, from about 4 until 9, I cleaned. So satisfying. Floors, walls, baseboards. I even physically moved our bed out of the way to do the floors under there. I finally feel our house is clean. It felt good to wake up this morning and know I didn't have to do anything. Sheets are done. Laundry is done. Dishes are done. Praise be unto all of you! Hallelujah. So that's why I slept in so late. I earned it.

During the day I also worked hard. Went to therapy and came right back and dove into a work thing. I finished building a new class and got it all squared away. Very please with myself on that front too. A satisfying day to be sure.

So now what? Nothing. That's what. A whole lot of fucking nothing. Go me.

Y13 D310

Sorry, I am here and getting around to typing this. It's payday, the 1st, and all roads are converging. I need to pay bills, transfer money, update everything, etc. So this window has been open empty for a good 15 minutes. Lucky it didn't time out or something. 

Okay, where to begin, how about with the dream I woke up from? This was a doozy. I was driving on the freeway talking with "my boss" who was Hitler. Yeah. Weird right? No subliminal message there. Nope, not at all.

Taught yesterday. That was the bulk of my day. 5.5 hours. I also ordered a new desk which should be here in about a week. It's 20" shorter than my current which will make the room feel less crowded. Work paid for it which is nice. It was only $400, but it's a nice desk with monitor riser, built in plugs, keyboard drawer, etc. It's a big people desk. 

Sorry I keep getting distracted by bills and such.

B's sister's were still over all day. They left around 7 when the mother came to retrieve them. We made spaghetti and garlic bread for dinner. No issue there other than we were both exhausted when they left. Did feeds, piddled about on the internet for a while, and we both went to bed around 10.

Therapy today followed by marathon document writing. Have to get something done for our other instructor to teach on the 11th. I have today to do it and that's it. Dog goes to the vet for vaccines today. This weekend I want B gone so I can clean this damn house. It will help my mental state to do so.
