...one of which I received yesterday, from a friend I first met 40 years ago; the other I received today, from a former student I first met almost 11 years ago.
6/29: a decrease
...in wrist pain over the course of the day. (Fingers crossed that the decrease holds.)
6/28: having the energy
...to go grocery shopping this afternoon. I meant to do it yesterday but was too (inexplicably) wiped out.
6/27: phew
Tilde the Cat was limping yesterday, and Chris called in the late afternoon to get her a vet appointment today. Our vet isn't in on Fridays, but they scheduled us to see another vet at the clinic. We really love our vet, but it's also nice that he now works in a joint practice so that there can be a back-up option on days when he's out. When I took Tilde in this morning, they x-rayed her leg: no break and no signs of other chronic troubles. So they gave her a meloxicam shot for inflammation and pain, and we're hoping that the limp disappears over the weekend.
6/25: persisting
...or trying to persist through an awkward day. Nothing bad happened, but the heat and my migraine are lingering, and I got very itchy for a chunk of hours until an antihistamine took the edge off. I had a hard time settling into anything. But I got some mail ready, read some of Maggie Su's Blob (a kind of Pygmalion story), listened to the rest of Marie-Helene Bertino's Beautyland, made crumpets (but sort of messed them up), did some Heron Tree work, tried to write about Gender Swapped Greek Myths, and exercised on our indoor machines (treadmill, rower, sitting elliptical).
6/24: in spite
...of a migraine (and associated eye trouble and nausea), there were many good things today! I dealt with a practical website problem that I was anxious about addressing. I wrote notes to go into the mail. I texted back-and-forth with my brother for 45 minutes and had a quicker text exchange with my sister. I received a great set of Rhode Island trading cards made by a friend and his son for a school project.
