It Was A Dark And Stormy Day...

I know some of you are wondering whatever has happened over the last two weeks...
I got everyone's question(s) answered, so if you've not seen the responses, take a peek. Thanks to all who played along.

I've become a bit of a working drudge--up before the sun, at work by a bit after seven and home, often exhausted, by five. Household chores, animals and meal prep, PT, then early to bed and a night of often dreamless sleep. I do a half mile circuit round the business complex everyday during lunch. This gives me a bit of sun, a chance to escape my windowless work space and exercise. I do crunches and stretches in the evening from the comfort of my bed, missing the hospital machines and exercise regime all the while. In case you're wondering, I do plan on returning to the hospital when this is over, but the eight-hour day puts a drain on the energy and having gone to PT after work in the past, I was often so tired getting home that other necessaries were abandoned continuously, with unpleasant consequences for me.

The feline members of the household are not enjoying being alone during the day and register their irritation in small and very annoying ways, including leaving "presents" in my bed, chewing holes in favourite socks and deliberately waking me an hour earlier than is customary for their breakfast. If I didn't love the little blighters, they'd be up for adoption in a snap.

Errands and household stuff are accomplished piecemeal, and if I haven't answered the odd e-mail, I will. No problems regarding Godot in this workplace, which is lovely.

Other than getting some necessities for the flat, and the odd trim, I haven't planned anymore outings and rainy weather kept me inside today. I will miss the upcoming initiation into the international Library Honor Society, Beta Phi Mu, but it is one more small detail for the CV, whether I'm there or not.

Mundane life, innit???

Until Next Time...

So, What Would You Ask?

It's almost the weekend, and I've nothing fabulous to write about, so I thought I'd ask any interested readers the following: If you could ask me just one question, what would it be?

Of course, I do reserve the right not to answer if the question is deemed inappropriate, but I'm curious to see what your enquiries may be.

I'll leave this post up for the next few days. Those interested can pop in to see the answers.

Happy Weekend Everyone!

Until Next Time...
