Today was another awesome day. I got a lot of things organized and got the memos caught up to mid-April when there were ones back from November.
And filled a full page with questions for the training person tomorrow.

Whoops. Both Fen and I had a cup of coffee after a perfectly lovey homemade dinner. And then promptly fell asleep in front of the telly. Both of us. For over an hour. And me with my crocheting in my hands and Spock snoozing away atop my feet.
I’m still exhausted after another awesome day at work, so I’m headed for bed, after I appease the Duolingo owl.
Take your meds, folks!

I ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner today. That’s literally the third time this month that’s happened. I need to get better about eating regularly. At the new job, I hope to pack lunches to be able to keep things in balance.

I’m in the weeds of a fibromyalgia flare up from hell. It’s likely triggered by the stress of changing jobs this week. Everything hurts.

3 Times Woken by a Zooming And/Or Meowing Cat
Spock, apparently, decided to kick off his birthday week by zooming about the house singing the song of his people at one a.m. And then again at two a.m. Only to be followed up with an encore at five. Maybe I gave him too much catnip?
