Story 14Nov2022: Another Monday

The day started with me waking before my alarm and feeling like the day was going to be better. This morning, I was not tired or in pain, which improved my start. I also had gone to sleep early and slept through the night–no nightmares. I started a fun book, putting away WW2 books and the history of the conquest of India by the East India Company, A Master of Djinn. This is an alternative reality of earth where magic and Djinns have reappeared. The center of the world has invention has moved to Cairo, Egpyt now in a steampunk future. Women were just given the vote and became part of a modern workforce in the cutting edge near the ancient pyramids. It makes me laugh and smile.

The day started with me starting without issues and some early calls. I gave some advice and followed along all day. I was reading policies and doing some research all day. Finally, I was dressed and ready in the mid-morning, but decided to order lunch delivered, lamb kebabs, from Gyro House. This is my go-to food for feeling better. After that, I felt much better and got the house a bit ordered between things.

In the afternoon, I headed to see Susie. She was more awake and happy this Monday. We connected with her mother, Leta, on my iPhone using FaceTime. Susie was delighted to see me but sad to kiss me goodbye after a short visit. However, Susie’s speech was better, and she was not falling asleep when talking to you.

I stopped by the Rite Aide pharmacy, which once again told me they did not have my prescription. I had ordered another one by calling the mail-order pharmacy, and that prescription seems to be moving. So I have to have the doc fax the script to them.

Basics Groceries is next door, so I did some quick grocery shopping and bought two bags of things I could use, including the ham for the ham and cheese sandwich I had for dinner.

The day at work, online, and this Monday mainly was reading. I rested a few times and, at 5ish, made my sandwich and watched more Matt Smith in Doctor Who season five. I continued to clean up and made the bed in the guest room. Slowly getting there.

I decided to write the blog at Wildwood Tap House with a fine beer product. I like the crowd.

Thanks for reading. I also changed the font on the blog to be larger and darker for folks reading it on a phone or other device. Hope it helps. I did not know how to do this but discovered I needed only to pick a font that would be darker–only the default font is gray. A surprise. I may use a different template as I have used the same layout for years–might be time to look better.
