Books eat my brain and other stories....
Aug. 23rd, 2021 10:18 am Not a bad weekend but not as productive as I would have liked. The seekrit project is moving at a snails pace. I have to futz with things and measure and futz things and measure and make sure things align all of the time and gods...its a lot of brain power. But when you realize late in the week that you are again dealing with an ear infection, this time the left side, its just hard. I managed to use up the brain power on my paying job and then...well, I got sucked down a rabbit hole of reading after I was soul sucked and finished #12 of the year of Gideon the Ninth. Then I went back to the Laundry files which I had stopped reading for some reason, probably it hitting too close to crap on the whole pandemic, now its just sad and I deal after 18 months of this crap....so I devoured book 13# which was the Delirium Brief and am no ensconced in book #14 which is The Labyrinth Index (Laundry Files #9). People have bitched that we don't get enough of Bob and Mo in the later books but I really like the POV switch and the characters are growing on me. So, I adapt, others should as well.
So, with the ear my gym life has meant not bouncing around in HIIT. That is okay. I will hit strength and try to get a few walks in. The boy wants to go for longer bike rides and I can handle a low impact walk even with the left side of my head numb. The temps are supposed to be back over 100 again and that is okay. The humidity has gone down which means the coolers are at a better efficiency and that makes the house feel better.
So today is a bit slow but I have lots of check in tasks since last week was STATUS ALL OF THE THINGS week. Our negotiations team is still in DC and still working so supporting them remotely as well with strange out of context questions. So I have an okay week planned. I have take care of my own ear since its a skin infection...gonna do topical antibiotics for a few days to see how that goes. If it doesn't go well then I will call my doc and ask for a scrip. But I have a plan. I don't have extra kid/cat duties this week and that is okay. I can just be me and my normal + seekrit project self.
