Snow is Coming
Jan. 5th, 2022 06:54 amSnow is coming, or so the internet bots tell me - both in twenty minutes and in two days.
I have been not-avoiding this week. Set up an appt with the eye doctor. Called the old APRN to see if she would take me back (she took care of my mother and currently takes care of my father, so maybe).
Called the tree people. It'll cost $1000 to take down the beautiful-but-dead tree at the base of my driveway. It's very, very tall, (>=~50 feet)and old Christmas tree planted in the early 80s. Every storm brings down more branches, and while the tree looks fairly sturdy, I don't know how dead it is inside. It is sad, but it is time. I wish this were a forest and I could let it live out its life.
I (mostly) kept with my work intent yesterday: crafting more creator/connector roles into my job. I realized that it's getting more fun now, with my team, as they learn more. There were the usual emergencies, but either I'm less stressed after vacation or I've come to expect urgent requests.
Notably, I did work until 7pm to finish an urgent tasker. I felt important, but that's not how I want to spend my days.
So far, keeping with the cooking streak. It's a good thing I had planned "heat up pierogis" for dinner last night and that the pan was clean, or I was at risk of ordering delivery.
