As usual on Friday mornings, I'm sitting here on the computer too long and need to do some straightening up for the cleaning lady. More this time, because dd came through last night and worked on her menorah here, will come by this a.m. to complete. And I need to finish up mine also!

I'm actually dreading dinner at temple tonight. 150 reservations already? It's going to be packed full!

Mine is a dysfunctional Friday.

My tingly/numb foot is such a distraction. And I have a twitchy nerve next to my eye (that started last night.)

I'm up, have eaten but haven't s2s yet. The bedroom is tidied and my clothes laid out for the day but I keep getting distracted by little things, like finding a spot for the portable charging bank dh bought me weeks ago as a get-well soon gift. I've decided on my computer bag (since that includes extra charging cables and electrical cords. The other day, when I was waiting for the car, my phone got low but then I noted the coffee bar seating had wireless charging built into the counter so I could sit there and put my phone on that and use it.

Ok, I'm going to poof and shower and do some stretches to see if they help the foot.

Just got word that one of the refugees can't come tomorrow night (he has a shift at work) so that means we are definitely using the dining table. That is now my second highest priority (babysitting this afternoon and shopping for groceries for tomorrow is the highest.)

DGD7 and I were first up this morning. She was hungry so I made her 2 waffles along with a glass of milk. An hour later DH got up and made pancakes for everyone. DGD7 ate pancakes too! Where does this skinny little girl put all that food?

Our weather people models are starting to agree on the winter storm. Now they are saying we will get 1/2" of ice followed by 6-8" of snow. That is much better than the wild possibilities they were telling yesterday.

Today is homeschool Day #88. We tend to do a light school day (2 hours) when DGD7 is here because DS10 doesn't focus well when he isn't by himself. DD is supposed to come get DGD7 this morning for a few hours. Hopefully sooner rather than later.

Dd has come and finished her menorah and gone, and mine is finished also. I have some extra supplies laid aside for mine in case something like a graham cracker breaks on the way to temple.

Dcleaning lady has come and gone and a.m. routine is done except for showering later probably before temple.

I might try to nap just a little...it seems like a good time.

Hello bw2 and LadyM!

Kathryn, you've been so active this week it's not surprising to have an "off" day now. Remember to keep taking care of yourself!

Blessed: shingles last 3 - 5 weeks on average. So I have about 2 weeks to go before I will start complaining bitterly about them. And for some people, the nerve pain continues for up to a year.

I'm now dressed and I did a round of physio. That means I've done nothing else today. I will take an Advil and then head out for babysitting and errands. I'll take my computer with me in case dgs actually sleeps when he is supposed to.
