A Quick Take and Mood Modification in Everyday Ramblings

Okay, so I took this last year at this time. It is so dark and wet out now that even though the trees are beginning to bud it is not possible to get a picture. I saw the yellow of a daffodil head just beginning to unfurl too.

For us this is way late, it is March for gosh sakes!

While it has rained, is raining, will rain, the endless ceaseless overwhelming rain seems to have stopped and it is a little more intermittent.

Work has been insane this week and there is a short lull in the action this morning so I will see if I can get through a short post.

Of course the lab called and said my crowns won’t be ready for an additional six days, so I won’t have them by the time I go out to dinner with my niece.

They actually moved it out three more weeks but I expressed dismay in a gentle way, not angry, just disappointed and someone got wind of that and there was a scramble to get, me, my crowns and my dentist (who teaches most of the week) together before then.

This is a good thing because I do not think they want me going around saying I received poor service, which I was beginning to feel compelled to do. Not from my doctors, they are great, but from all the support staff.

I did manage to see my Physical Therapist yesterday and he worked on my hips in a new and interesting way and I actually felt some ease afterwards. He gave me these mobility adjustments to do that involve lying on the floor and inserting myself into an exercise band that is wrapped around the leg of my futon.

Oh the cats loved that!

For some reason I do not understand I seem to have more chores than normal and that coupled with working overtime and teaching…

So when I read about the Women’s Strike next Wednesday on International Women’s Day I thought, hey, that is a good idea! So I will take the day off and wear red and do chores that do not involve spending money at places owned by and run by men.

They just announced new austerity measures at work yesterday. What this means is that I am lucky to have a job. Bleh.

And I better get back to it…

Tonight I am teaching mood modification in class. I could use some of that my own self. :)
