Roscoe's Quick Notes

my micro-blog

Limiting my online time for the next few days.

For those few who may notice, I'll be restricting my online time to a bare minimum over the next few (several?) days. Seasonal allergies hit me differently from year to year. This year they've been bringing me almost constant sinus headaches. And those have been particularly focused behind my left eye.

Last night the wife noticed that my left eye was swollen. So I'm going to rest my eyes for awhile: not staring at a computer screen, not staring at the TV, not staring at my phone, not reading from books (except for the few “large print” books I have.) And I'll continue dosing heavily with my allergy meds; that always seems to help.

Dosing with the allergy meds before I finish my 1st cup of coffee. Yeah, it's gonna be one of those days.

Pretty tired again after a productive day. Tomorrow will be long. A good night's sleep tonight will be most appreciated. Hope the Sandman cooperates.

Very tired tonight, as I should be. Last night's sleep was short and I got quite a bit of work done today. Tomorrow and the next day will both be busy, too. So I'm hoping for a good night's sleep tonight.

This is not my favorite Sunday. She and I were both sick last night; me first and she next. I had nasty insomnia followed by strong chills. I was SO COLD! Had to bundle up a LOT just to fall into a semi-sleep for the rest of my night. And it took me much longer than normal to wake fully. Her strong chills sound as bad as mine to hear her tell it, but they started after I woke. Thank God we're both better now.

Friday was a hard day, but this Saturday promises to be much easier. I realized on Thursday the importance of staying calm, so that was a goal throughout the day yesterday. Good thing. There were opportunities for me to become frustrated, to lose my patience, and to sour things. Gladly, I stayed calm and the long day ended well. Today is starting calmly, and I expect it to be the start of a good weekend.

Thursday evening finds me needlessly nervous. There is an unfortunate error that has become common practice in an organization to which I belong, an error that I am going to try to correct. Correcting the wrong is bound to ruffle some feathers, to put it mildly. Staying calm will be a challenge.

Mid-morning Wednesday finds me cautiously optimistic about the day ahead and what remains of this week. There are a number of projects calling for my attention and I think I have time to pull off my role in them.

Currently upgrading the OS on one of my main computers from Linux Mint 20.3 to Mint 21.0. Not too complicated, but taking a long time. Hope this resolves a connectivity issue I've recently encountered.

Midway through another busy day. Things have gone well so far. Hoping they continue through the rest of the afternoon and tonight's business meeting.
