Happy April Fool’s Day! No, I don’t have a prank for you. I find myself returning to my journal, but I struggle to find much to write about. It’s pretty windy today, and there’s a severe weather warning in effect because of it. If it weren’t for the wind, it would be a lovely day…

The weather needs to remain warm so I can work on my desk. This week, temperatures are in the 40s and 50s, but I’m hopeful that it will warm up more in April. I took a short nap this morning, just a few hours, since I had less than six hours of sleep last night….

I typically have two cats at my desk: O’Malley lounging beneath it and Sandy perched on top. Today, however, both decided to engage in a swatting match. In the midst of their swiping (Swiper, no swiping!), Sandy accidentally knocked over my full cup of coffee, sending it splattering across my desk. I quickly dashed to…

I’m uncertain about what to write today. I’ve been coding all morning and am presently working on a function, power(base, exponent), that calculates base raised to the exponent. I’ve consulted Google and found several examples, and I believe the basic structure of my code will resemble this: function power(base, exponent) { // Code here }…

My mind is currently juggling a myriad of tasks. I’m in the middle of coding, I want to watch the Milanote video that Tommy sent me, and I have therapy scheduled for 2:30. I should jot everything down in my planner and choose one task to focus on. Additionally, I need to tackle some laundry;…

I’m experiencing a headache today, which is unusual for me. This one is located over my right eye and is rather bothersome. I took some Naproxen, and it’s providing a bit of relief. Additionally, I’m on antibiotics for my ear, which is helping to alleviate the discomfort in my right ear. This morning, Kel, Karissa,…

Today is Alexis’s birthday! I’ve shared her birth story here. She turns 22 today, and I hope she has a wonderful day; I miss her since she is away at school. I document my daily activities in my planner, which serves as a sort of mini journal. This practice is helpful, as I often refer…

I’m feeling quite sleepy today. I took a 15-minute nap, which may not seem substantial, but it truly helps. My sleep doctor advised me on this. Taking a long nap can leave you feeling groggy afterward, but a brief 15-minute nap can effectively boost alertness, especially in the afternoon, without the risk of grogginess or…

I didn’t write yesterday because I was away from home all day and didn’t have the opportunity. Well, I had the opportunity before bed but I was pretty tired. I returned around 8:30 PM and prepared Tommy’s lunch for today. Kel, Alex, and I accompanied Tommy when he left for work so we could use…

It seems that the stomach flu is making its rounds, and I’m thankful to have avoided it so far. Kel, Alex, and Tommy all fell ill with it last weekend. On Saturday, Tommy and I went to lunch while we waited for Kel’s dad to be released from the hospital. Afterward, we stopped by Costco…
