beansideIt's Saturday, and I slept for shit. I just could not fall asleep, and when I did get to sleep, it didn't stick. I was up and down all night. Then at 5, my body insisted that it was time to get up. The cat didn't even bother getting up for food, that's how early it is. I've of course, got two games that I'm running today, so that should be fun. The first one at 12:30 should be good. The second one at 7pm could be interesting. Maybe I'll take a nap after game #1. I hate that some nights the ADHD is stronger than the sleepy pills. My body is a wonderland. Or at least a fun house that has been declared unsafe by the city.
May I just say that it was fucking cold out yesterday? Our high was in the low 40's and when we went for the night time walk with Yoda it was 33, feels like 28 degrees farenheight. On the plus side, I got to try out my new winter coat. It was very nice and warm. from my butt to my shoulders was not cold. Unfortunately, my cheeks and thighs were freezing. Yoda paid it no mind and just trotted his little self along.
I probably have a few more little presents that I need to get, but overall I'm pretty well done. I'm observing the economic blackout except from small businesses, but even if I wasn't, the black Friday sales this year are pretty blah. I'm not seeing anything that would even tempt me to buy.
I forgot to mention yesterday, we decided that instead of doing a lot more big presents, we would adopt a Navajo Elder. There's a site called Adopt a Native Elder that will match you with an Elder who needs help meeting basic needs. The inital buy in to adopt is steep ($300) but that will provide with a spring and fall food run. You can also get them firewood and grocery cards as well. It's our family gift to each other.
My sister did the adoption, and then when it comes time to order fireword or yarn for rug weaving, I can pick that up. I was scrolling BlueSky and saw the site recced by an author I follow. I looked and in the dopamine haze post turkey, I decided that I wanted to do this. I can't fix the world, but I can give someone a softer landing.
Yesterday was so boring at work. I took 22 calls, and spent a good chunk of my day working on filling some slots in. It worked out well and I was able to shuffle around some appointments to get in bigger MRIs. I get a kick out of doing that. It's like a game of Tetris, where I can look at the schedule and look at the STAT list and see what we have the potential to accommodate. It worked out well. I got 4 people off the list, so that's not nothing.
We ordered food, and I had osso bucco for the first time, and good lord it was tasty. I will definitely get that again. For dessert, I made roasted pears with blue cheese and honey. Very tasty, and not terribly hard to make. I'm not mad at it at all.
I have things to do today. I've gotta get myself together at a reasonable time, then head out to the nursery and to grab lunch before game. Right now, I just kind of want to sit here and let my ass become one with the couch.
Actually, it looks like the nursery is open on Sundays, too. So I may go tomorrow and shop and grab lunch and achieve a meld with the cushions until game.
Okay, off to do some prep work for the 12:30 game! Everyone have an excellent Saturday!
