What a week... →[More:]Ever had just one of those weeks? Missed work Monday and Tuesday because of the flu and then had to leave work early yesterday and off today because of a death in the family on the husband's side who is also at odds. Took today off with it all going on and home all day and not sure what to do with myself besides you know, not cleaning. I'm sure work is piling up and it just clearly never looks good missing a whole week of work, so nervous about that but sort of feeling like there's just nothing to do about it. Also, trying to get better so I can go visit my father the weekend after this because he too is likely slipping away soon and I'm very bored with myself which is an odd sensation with everything going on. Just sort of taking it all in stride as a likely defense mechanism... worried these things go in threes...

Ever just had one of those weeks? Turned to my favorite book ("Playing the Jack" by Mary Brown) to whip up a little escapism and now starting on the sequel again because I couldn't get through it before due to a disturbing rape scene. Checking that thread again, I've noticed that I missed the emailing around of Dorothy Dunnett text... bummer. Half started projects like sorting through summer clothing, dishes that could easily be done but piling in the sink, tidying up the bedroom... sigh. It's a stinker and all to be endured.

Is your week any better?
