Song: “Skipper Dan” by ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic
Mood: 7
Nightmares: 0
I fell asleep very quickly last night, but woke up several times again and it took me a little while to get back to sleep. No nightmares, though, so I’m not complaining. I also couldn’t get back to sleep when J left for work so I was up a little early, too. Feeling a little tired today.
My exercises went pretty well, but the house made a couple of noises that startled the heck out of me and it took a little while to get back to where I was. I didn’t do the treadmill or burpees today because it feels like someone replaced my lower vertebrae with a set of really rusty hinges.
I spent some time writing. It’s been a while since I’ve done that and it was good to get back into it again. I also did some cleaning around the house and threw in a load of laundry for good measure.
I worked on the quadcopter again. I think I messed up the motor calibration because the motors aren’t spinning at the same rate. Not a big deal and I certainly don’t mind doing it. I feel like I’m just on the cusp of getting it to fly well.
My mom called today and gave me an update on my uncles. One of them has been having circulation problems because of diabetes and they had to remove a toe. The other one just went through another battery of tests that confirmed that he has ALS. Mom’s a little upset and I wish there was something I could say to her to make her feel better.
After J got home, we had supper and then did some a little more tidying before she sat down to study for her upcoming exam. Once she was happy with her studies, we watched another Columbo. We’re on the second to last disc and I have no idea what we’re going to watch when we’re done this.
I have an appointment tomorrow afternoon with Dr W. It’s been a month since I last saw him. I’m really not looking forward to leaving the house to go to the hospital but J will be with me and she makes everything a little bit easier.
Stay safe.
