silver_chipmunkStarted the day with a call from my therapist. That went well. Then had breakfast and coffee.
Had my first meeting of the day, my staff meeting, at 1:00. It went well, though no news, just rumors, but nothing for certain. That was an hour.
Then I killed time and made my second call of the day to Oldest Brother, until it was time for my second meeting of the day, the YA Afternoon Tea. That was fun.
After that, the Kid texted me and I suggested she call, so she did, and we talked for awhile. She's still buying stuff from shopgoodwill.
Then I Skyped the FWiB for about an hour, having a great deal of laughter and fun. I am so glad and so lucky to have him in my life after everything.
Between 6 and 7 I had my "cocktail hour"... a glass of the mead from yesterday and more cheese and crackers. Then at 7 my Al-anon meeting, which was very good.
After that I had dinner, then went and read until it was time to call Oldest Brother again. I'm now in the second book of the trilogy I started the other day, The Broken Kingdom.
Oldest Brother is doing very well, mostly recovered now. His quarantine is over, and he's going to start work at the radio station again Sunday.
Oreo came and snuggled next to me for a good long time while I was talking to the Kid. This is a step in the right direction.
Today was payday and tomorrow is the weekend when I don't have to try and figure out something to do to count as work. So that's good.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Oldest Brother is well again for the most part.
3. The Kid is feeling better.
4. Oreo snuggles.
5. Good books.
6. My meetings and the people there.
