I didn't keep up with records this past three day weekend, so here's a stab.

Friday i found i had NOT placed a potato order.

Saturday morning Christine and i went to the farm store and i do go on in some detail )

Sunday morning i prepped to lead worship Read more... )

And this week has blurred by ... Monday off gardening, news that just continues to make me ... push the reality away from my heart and try to focus on what i can do. work is demanding, with the welcome news that there is knowledge that i am "over-provisioned" which apparently is jargon du jour or at least du manager for the fact that i am now carrying critical knowledge for two high profile projects. Christine got me a drone for my birthday; i got it stuck in a tree within twenty minutes. she cut down the tree and rescued it, but now that tree trunk is snarled with others in the multi-trunked gigantic crepe myrtle.

The shift key on my personal laptop is behaving erratically. (although it worked for the open-parenthesis and the previous T - again1 - not the a or the exclamation mark0

mom has a uti; my work last week to research the best bidet for her will be used by my sister today to help my dad order one.

Meeting with sister was much shortened, but as productive as necessary. We will do daily check ins which i may include here. This year, through December, L thinks she's focused on project management at their home, but we have a goal of going to two classes or lectures or whatever for our future work together. The daily check-ins are to do more with our parental goals than anything else. We're doing the check-ins by text so i don't want to overwhelm with writing:

- What did you do yesterday? Got digital workflows a little more organized, looked up electrician phone number - it's now on your task title in email from me yesterday - planned when to be at M&Ds (Friday this week if Luigi doesn't need frequent medicine after treatment on Thursday)
- What will you do today? Call electrician.
- What obstacles are in your way? Current avoidance of people. Sigh.

My sister is eleven years younger than i. When i told her i would be sixty in eight years her expression was ... interesting. I also told her about menopausal brain fog. She cursed at that.

My (android) alarm program i've used for years - Alarm Clock Xtreme Pro - hasn't really been functional since the last android upgrade. The most critical failure was that i was using it to sound an alert. The alarm would go sound and then stop after 5 seconds at points to help me know when to be winding up or winding down things. The app stopped stopping the alarm, which meant fumbling to get it turned off. And the app was no longer supporting turning off the alarm well anymore. I've purchased a new app http://www.jetkite.com/ and the alarm shuts off -- and then replays after the snooze period. I can cope with that, but i've written to see if that's something expected.

I thing i hab a cold. Curses.
