Woke up at 5 a.m.

74 degrees in the Fort.

Peddle something today

Ready for 5 p.m.

After work, go home and change the water pump and thermostat on the race car.

Rain forecasted for after midnight tonight.

Have a wonderful day!

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Great to have my daughter home from being out of the country for a month. Mow the back today, office work. Primrose tonight.

Wishing nai06 the best with his family stuff.

Setting my auto-response: Pay no attention to the man behind the pine curtain.

• Slept til 5AM, had massive headache.
• Went back to sleep about 5:45AM, still have massive headache.
• Probably caused by the cipro meds.
• At least the tummy issues from the meds haven't started yet.
• Glad its my work from home day.
• Hopefully part for the water heater comes and friend will come back and install it.
• Depending how today goes, I may go see a movie by myself tonight. I only go every 2 years or so. Hubs and daughter are out of town.

Do the day!

Didn't sleep well last night so a nap later is on tap. Colombian Supremacy coffee helps of course.
Because a good day starts with good coffee.
Make it a good one in spite of what humankind and the Weather Channel are up to.

Sat at the gate for 4 hours trying to leave Bangalore. Got to London late and missed my connection. Got lucky and made the other direct flight to Austin. Almost home!

I hope you're in business class! Those long flights are brutal, even before a painful 4 hour delay. Ouch!

- Did not make kibbe yesterday. Was in too much pain from ovary cramps to do much of anything, ugh.
- Maybe today.

• Apple fritter for breakfast
• Oil change day for the truck
• If anything is going to make me quit grad school, it's going to be this theory course
• Having the last pecan tree on my property taken down before some hurricane comes along and does it
• Might head out to the cabin tonight instead of in the morning

Ciproflaxin

Got some more results back today and sometimes I wish we didn't have the Google because I don't like what it says. I'm waiting for the doctor to message back. And she won't have an answer because it could be multiple things, but I guess waiting to see next steps. Edited to add Dr doesn't seem too worried, but I'll have a follow up next week.

Anyone else ever just feel completely lost and over it but don't really know what they are over and where they were even going to feel lost in the first place?

Went in early

Left to go do labs for my annual physical

Lab orders were screwed up. No urinalysis? Come on

Made some calls. Doctor is out today. They said I would have to try another day

They called me while I was picking up tacos. Could I come back and provide a sample? Sure. It's not like I had already left and driven away

Got a crummy headache in between. Went home

At least the schipperke and the orange cat are giving me puppy and kitty energy

This is kibbe, it's Arabic for meat. Most of the time when you order it, it comes fried in small football shaped servings. This is the old way - baked.

So, meatloaf?

Mmmm…
Makes me hungry for some Musakhan with pita! And toum for dipping. Washed down with spiced tea of course.

I'm more of a doner kebap guy myself. Ever since I discovered it in Germany.

YUMMMM. Maybe I'll look for that recipe. That one wasn't a family staple since we aren't Palestinian but we had something similar.

It is meatloaf in that it's made with ground beef but the seasoning and layering make it different. And it's eaten with lebneh yogurt instead of ketchup

People eat meatloaf with ketchup?
