And it's back to Monday. This weekend did not feel particularly restful.

Dad is stable, but still pretty messed up. My sister stayed til about two, but felt like her presence was making him more agitated, so she came home after they'd gotten him settled into his room. We're still not 100% sure what's causing this. They've done a ton of tests, which showed fluid in or around his lungs. Whether that's pneumonia or because his heart isn't pumping as well? Who knows? He had a little blood in his urine, so maybe UTI? A bunch of his labs were fully out of whack, too, so really, any guess is as good as another.

Hopefully, the antibiotics and lasix will settle him down. Jess is going to go visit this morning/early afternoon, and we'll see how he's doing. They seemed to think he'd be in there for a few days at least. I guess it depends how he responds to the medication they're giving him.

I feel bad for him, because he's so out of it, he doesn't really understand why he's there. On the plus side, if history is a predictor, he won't remember the first couple of days anyway. Which is awesome for him. I wish I had that option.

After we launched Dad to the ER, my sister insisted we play our D&D game, so we did. It was a lot of fun. Got to play with a new monster, a Behir, which looks like the cross between a Chinese dragon and a mole rat. Managed to get a couple of good hits in before my players dispatched it.

After that, I threw in dinner, and later popped over to Whole Foods to pick up some stuff for my sister. I am simultaneously into and creeped out by their pickup orders. You just click that you're on the way, and it's activates the GPS tracking, and they're already bringing out your order as you're pulling up. It makes things incredibly easy and quick. It also is incredibly invasive, but the convenience wins out for me.

Today, I start the Commercial Insurance module. That'll run for 2 days, before we'll switch to out Epic training. We have games Wednesday-Sunday, so that'll be fun. Hopefully, dad returning home will not mess up any of them, but we'll see. Thursday, I have my virtual psych appointment, which will be nice. I'm going to see if we can discuss ADHD this time, since I am on insurance again and won't feel guilty bringing it up when I'm paying a discounted rate. Which reminds me, at some point, I need to call them and give them the new insurance information.

Okay, time for more coffee! Everyone have the best Monday possible!
