Amazingly Alert

Considering the lack of sleep I had yesterday, I never really felt bad or exhausted. Until about 6:30, that is. But hey, by then I was home, fed and ready to crawl under my covers...which I did. I managed to stay awake until about 8:00 and then I hunkered down and wasn't conscious of anything again until 3:30. At that point I rolled over, saw the time and snoozed some more until 5:00. Slept like a baby! And it's Friday Eve! WOOT! Love it when the week goes by quickly!

Jim's off today...it's a slow time at work so he'll be running around doing errands for me. Costco, Kroger, walking Sami, dusting and vacuuming. When I told him what I wanted him to do today, he said, "In one day!?" Yup...get it together! Not sure if he'll be off tomorrow or not.

Speaking of Jim, he should be back on his meds by the end of the week (or the beginning of next). Can't say I'm thrilled to have him back on with the possibility of another fever but at least we know what to watch for and can call immediately to figure out what to do.

We also found out that he MAY be able to continue his meds through his surgery at the end of this month. His doc is figuring that out.

What else? Nothing really. I have another student out for several weeks because of major emotional issues. He isn't on my caseload but I have him in my LA class. I've been worried about him for a while and had even emailed his mother a couple weeks ago to voice my concern. UGH! These poor kids!

Oh! I had my second meal with Home Chef last night. It was chicken piccata with angel hair pasta and a lemon caper sauce. It was really delicious! One change I would make, however, would be to reduce the amount of capers used. I'm not a huge caper fan (very vinegary and salty...like olives a bit) but a few are fine, Anyway - it was delicious and Jim and  both cleaned our plates. Oh, and the pasta, I only served half of what they gave us...there was a TON! Excited for tonight's meal! Pork chops with chimichurri. I hope it's good!

K - I'm out. Sami just went back upstairs to sleep some more. I love her...wish I could join her. Happy Thursday! Later!
