Re: Focused Friday PWYC

Hello! Slept in this morning -- couldn't get to sleep for worrying about DC's light switch, which doesn't always turn on the light it's supposed to (we don't think it's the bulb because it's a two-bulb fixture, but we can't get to it to check). I remembered that I had a smart bulb kicking around, so we set that up in the lamp across their room, so now they can turn it on and off from bed and leave the other switch off. They can also adjust the brightness and color, so bonus. I was able to get to sleep after that, but then I woke up to the sound of heavy rain and went downstairs to close the open window in the sun room lest rain get to the treadmill. It'd take a good bit of wind for the rain to be able to reach, but I was still worried. So back to sleep, and I overslept. Accidentally hit off rather than snooze on the alarm that usually wakes me thoroughly.
The worry combined with the lethargy makes me wonder if I should contact my psychiatrist, but I'm not yet convinced. I'll be keeping an eye on it, though.
So sorry LadyM's DD15 had such a rough first day. Good of the staff to be so on top of things (and good call, Mom!) I hope DD15 feels more at ease over the next few days of school and chooses to stick with it for both your sakes.
Goodness, Cathy, the last thing you need is more rain!
And here I am, losing focus to properly CUOP! I hope you all have good days (and blessed's mom's tummy feels better)!
Dfriend K, who has Fridays off in August, texted to see if I could come play. I have not been able to keep my nose to the grindstone enough to say yes, even with the prospect of a good time. sigh
I am... uncomfortable. My newest med lists both UTIs and yeast infections among its side effects. I cannot yet tell which this might be, or I may just be irritated. I am hoping it is not a UTI because that would defer me from my planned blood donation Sunday. There is a blood emergency here.
I should text K and tell her I can't come out and play. And then get some laundry done. And figure out dinner. If I need to thaw sone fish, I should have started that hours ago. again, sigh
Off I go!
