So I’m up bright and early, as usual, and I’m experiencing some trouble with getting myself moving. My day typically starts with a drive to my aunts to check in on my uncle and make sure he’s actually ready for work. Unfortunately he’s getting worse so its been increasingly difficult taking care of him. On top of his down syndrome we’re now battling alzheimers and heart conditions, needless to say its been difficult. I’m slowly watching him slip away and its taking its toll on me considering I’m here five days a week to care for him. This has increased to six thanks to the recent Verizon strike.
How could that possibly affect me? Simple really. My aunt is one of the managers for the NYC office and is now working six days a week, 7am to 7pm as only three offices are open in NY at this time. She’s back in her old office out east. So there’s my connection to that.
My back is still pretty bad. The spike in humidity is making it difficult to get around, my allergies are also full force today, thanks to the cat hair at my aunts. I made the dumb mistake of rubbing my eyes and now I’m pretty much screwed for the rest of the day. Hopefully a nice shower when I get home wll do the trick on clearing things out, we all know there’s a hige difference between outdoor humidity and pure shower steam in the fight against allergies!
Other than that things are going pretty good. I’m at a point where I’ve got so much on my plate that I don’t even know where to begin. It would help to be able to properly sit at a desk so I can concentrate but thanks to ms. Sciatica that’s just not an option. So I’ll continue to use the little bed/lap laptop tray Sean picked up for me until I can sit up straight for more than ten minutes. It kills me to be in bed all day but I’ve got no choice at this moment in time.
Todays goals are to get to the halfway mark on a site I’ve been tampering with all weekend, draw up a PSD for the hotel site I’m contracted on and get a few write ups completed for two other sites. On top of that my portfolio still needs to be completed and I’ve got to get acidgloss.net up and running cause there’s like $600 worth of pending articles. I really need three me’s!
