Happy St. Nicholas Day! Happy Friday!

[adoptedwriter]

 GOOD:

• Books, kitties, tacos and tortilla soup. Also coffee, wine and Diet Mt. Dew
• 2 “easy” work days in a row!
• Abbott Elementary on TV. Its hilarious, especially if you work in education. 
• Got my December manicure/ acrylic nails yesterday. 
• The sun is out and temps are supposed to rise for the weekend. Yay. 
• Xmas food treats all week and a pretty drink cup from the PTO at school. 

MEDIUM:

• Super cold weather and never feeling unthawed. Its that time of the year. Sigh. 
• Due to the cold temperatures the transformers blew at the nursing home. Back up generator power was all they had for 12 hours. At least they had that. 

BAD:

• My sister (one of the local-to-me ones) started “emergency “ radiation yesterday. I'm not sure how many treatment sessions she will have. It buys her time. Her latest scans were worse than expected. How many Hail Marys does my sister have left?
•  
• The Mothership is having rough days physically. Currently a UTI and $hitty (literally), side effects from the antibiotics. 
• Politics and assholes in general

Oh dear, it never seems to get easier, does it? I do hope the radiation therapy works for your sister, and of course that the Mothership has an easier time over the next few weeks - a holiday gift for you and the family.

Enjoy your newly-swanked nails. I can't wear/do anything like that, it plays havoc with my allergies. Plus, all those years as a cello player simply made me immune to the "I want long, pretty fingernails" theme.

It's always a good thing to recognize the Good Things going on in our lives.

But what a rough time for your sister. *gentle hugs*
