Relief
I have finally cleared out my attic study and plan on spending more time here. It took an AI chat to figure out how and where to start. This does not mean I am completely organized by any means — don’t look in drawers or closets or knee walls. But now I don’t become anxious… — read more

The past few weeks
This was going to be a daily journal but it ended up being a chronicle of my illness. I lost any interest in most things except basic survival during that time so posting on a never-read blog wasn’t something I felt up to doing. Since I last wrote I finally got over the aftermath of… — read more

Still sick, Chapter 1 of Scapegoat
Another day of not feeling well. My body feels okay, but my chest is still congested. No fever. I did a few tasks, found my blue notebook. Didn’t find my plum-colored hat. We had plans to go to a book talk but I bowed out. Dean went with Sally instead. I’ll be interested in hearing… — read more

Still sick, Dean returns
Not much different today than yesterday. My lungs are filled with mucus and sleeping is hard. When I am upright I don’t cough too much, so I’ve strived to keep upright most of today except for a nap. Dean got home before noon. We didn’t really interact much. I am so tired of being sick.… — read more

Still sick, The ‘Burbs
I’m even more sick today. Coughing, fever, generally miserable. Andrew, Alex, and Dean conspired to send me soup and a sandwich from Parkway Deli today which was sweet of them. I’d planned on getting the oil changed in the car but didn’t want to inflict my germs on other people. I did order food from… — read more

Sick, Christopher Robin, The ‘Burbs
I’m definately sick. I had to tell Alex and Andrew that I could not watch Lassen today. I want to try to get over this so I don’t infect an airplane full of people next Tuesday. We were planning on going to the cabin but I told Dean that since the weekend had been busy… — read more

Lassen, RSV, lost glove found, Frankenstein
I spent the day with Lassen at A&A’s. Not too much to say — doctor said she probably has RSV and definately has an ear infection caused by strep. Both have me concerned for myself. Since my sarcoidosis diagnosis I am worried more about respiratory infections than before. I’m pretty sure I’m coming down with… — read more

Snow, Lassen, Doug, Frankenstein
We only got about 3 inches of snow, so Alex had to work. Andrew and Lassen came here for the day. We did our normal Lassen and Nana things — tea party, reading books, cuddling. I also showed her a silly interactive monkey toy I bought on Woot. She was afraid of it at first,… — read more

More snow, helping Clare, finishing Sinners
It’s snowing again. The forecast called for anywhere between 2 to 12 inches but the Capital Weather Gang says 2 – 4 inches in the DC area. Lassen is sick again, so if Alex goes to work tomorrow Andrew will come up here and I’ll watch her. Apparently Lassen’s had a rough day. I helped… — read more
