Day 366, Monday
Back to work with the start of a migraine ☹️. Came home and laid in bed, but it was too late to stop it.
Day 367, Tuesday
Switched my days and went back to the office to record a conference presentation – recording in my place is bad enough when we record the podcast episodes. There’s always a truck, plane, train, or motorcycle that decides to roar past my apartment.
Day 368, Wednesday
Mom situation distracted me from my schedule… It’s only Wednesday, but this week is already a wash.
Day 369, Thursday
Another crazy early morning. Started with an hour-long drive and more meetings.
Day 370, Friday
Work up to find a giant lump under little girl cat’s chin. My usual vet couldn’t see her, so I had to sort through the local listings and hope for the best (I’ve had some bad vet experiences). I was so scared that I had missed a growing tumor. After my last two cats died of cancer, I’m extra anxious. Luckily (best of a bad situation), the vet found an abscess.
I planned to spend the day writing. Between the cat situation and two meetings that snuck onto my calendar, I’m not off to the best start.
Day 371, Saturday – Day 372, Sunday
Got about 3 hours sleep, all interrupted. Boy cat wouldn’t stop crying and little girl was so still, I couldn’t stop worrying.
Did a thing I haven’t done in nearly a year – ate at a restaurant! Sort of… The place was empty and we ate outside, but it was a lovely experience all the same.
Migraine is back. I knew the lack of sleep was going to trigger it. I’ve been puffy all week because of the meds. I hate it. It’s been a tough week. Not much progress, but at least I finished a chapter.

I love your little snippets of your day. My journal is like this too, and as ‘everyday’ as some posts may sound, I still appreciate the entries when I read them back years into the future. Thanks for sharing!
Aw! Thank you 🙂 That’s exactly why I started logging them. They’re so mundane, but it’s a nice record when I look back on these days.
Oh I read “lump” and my heart sank. So happy it was an abscess instead! Hope the migraine gets under control. 😦
that was my initial panic. My first thought was “not again.” I was so relieved that it was something relatively easy to treat. She’s all clear now and responded well to the treatment. By day 5, the swelling went down, and now you can’t even see it.
