ianukSo, the data I was waiting for didn't get to me until 2pm on Wednesday. I worked until 730pm to get the slide deck up and going. I was the last one in the entire office area and that was creepy. I was so tired and stressed out. We had to cancel our Gate meeting and reschedule to our off Friday. So I did well on my presentation on Thursday. I had the answers and we only had a few actions. Which I working on.
Usually on a Thursday night we get Cane's if I'm just toast...Benton and I went and found out that portion of the city was without power after we got hit by a large monsoon. We had had heavy rain at work, hail on the east side and there were lots of trees down in the area of Cane's. We looked across the street to see that MOD was open and we got pizza. Which was the balm my brain and body needed.
Friday was getting kiddo to school, giving blood, and then sitting in on the prep for our gate meeting and then 2 hours of meeting before I could not be working. I took abit of a break and then moved on to lunch, and taking the cats to the vet. Surprisingly, Spicy is the middle weight cat, weighing an ounce more than Willow. Tasha is still the heavyweight but she and Willow lost a pound since January. Now, maybe that is that we've had them not sneaking kitten chow since Spicy is now on Adult food, it could be they spent a month running around a huge house and getting excercise? Dunno. They go back in for a weigh in in a month. Spicy gets to try steroids for her chewing off her tail tip fur. We haven't started that yet. I need to split the pills and check with her ability to take pills. That will be fun. Spicy got 3 shots, the floofs got 1 shot. Everybody was not happy with me when we got home. I relaxed a bit before I headed off to my massage which was lovely. I did meander around Spirit Halloween before hand and they have some fun Haunted Mansion merch...I may go back for a candle holder.
Got home from my massage and the boys were playing Borderlands. I was tired and I think I played on my phone or did some spinning? I don't remember. I went to lay down and read and was asleep well before Mel came to bed I think.
Saturday I woke up and was...off. I had woke up with a mild headache, I had lots of water and coffee and played animal crossing for a few hours before i just went back to bed. My head was not better and we had a huge monsoon move in and with the massage/blood loss I was down for a few hours. I managed to quell most of it with meds and a drink but oof. Food and a cold shower helped as well and I did not stay up late. I think the everything together was not my best plan. But will remember to not schedule blood and massage on the same day.
Sunday I made sure the get up earlier and get dressed so I was motivated to get moving. I had finished reading #26 and moved on to #27 which is a physical copy of Patricia Briggs Soul Taken. Love this series. Its been nice to get back into the world. After this I think I have a new author to read Christopher Moore and the Pine Cove #1. Anyhoo, I read and drank coffee and then got off my ass and worked on my studio with breaks to read and get water. The studio wasn't bad but it was bugging me and I had old project stuff that needed to be put away and I needed to get fabric out for new things for the mel for fighting, finding things I had lost and getting the top of my dresser/altar area cleaned up and presentable. it took me a few hours but it was worth it. Then I started in on laundry...though I didn't get the bodies buried (i.e. put away). I made dinner of my air fryer tofu with seasame noodles and peas. It was okay but overly salty due to me using the seasoning packet from TJs and the new ponzu style sauce I used to make the peanut sauce. Meh it was edible and fine.
After dinner I finally put my book down long enough to work on the second ahem and third granny square for Poe's tiny chicken. I guess I used a different hook on the first one and the second one came out too big. So I made another one. I had finished up watching League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and then started Black Widow and then mel and I sat and watched it through to the end even though it was 1130pm. We are dumb but I do love that movie. And it was nice to sit and chat and watch it.
So yeah...that was last week and the weekend.

I also think if they had done more in the build up to the team first as was in the comic that may have made things more complete.
