John’s Ramblings

The only lingering effect of my recent bout of influenza is some strained intercostal muscles from my night ‘o’ purging. I don’t really notice it until I laugh or cough, then it feels like a sharp muscle pain between the lower ribs on both sides.

Tonight would normally be spin class night, but that’s probably not in the cards. I think I could make it though a basic aerobic workout at this point, that’s not the issue. This morning I chauffeured Terri to work, and tonight I’ll be doing the reverse. There are far too many dip-dingles out there, ill-equipped physically and mentally for the task at hand.

We’ve been put on alert for another wave of snow, to arrive in the next few hours. Dandy. I can and do work from my home, which is great. Brendan is going to school, and they are erring on the side of caution by canceling classes yesterday, and giving them only a three-hour day today before shooing them off the campus before the flakes start to fall. Terri’s work let her stay home yesterday, but insisted she go in today to discuss a meeting that they have decided to postpone until January.

I am supposed to attend CPR/First Aid training tomorrow. Originally to be held in Kent, I just got the call that they’ve moved the meeting from my friendly neighborhood easy-to-get-to location to Downtown friggin’ Seattle. I wonder if this is due to the weather, so the instructor won’t have to drive to Kent, but several class participants will have to drive to Seattle instead. I arranged for the day off from work, making it difficult to reschedule my participation in the training. Unless all hell breaks loose tonight, I will get into the mindset that I will drive Ms. T. to work, then head up to Seattle. I should be able then to pick her up on the way home.

Best laid plans…
