    Pit- went to make coffee this morning and the bottom of coffee pot spilt and water went everywhere. At 6;30 was on my way Wally World to buy new pot. Luckily- a Peak that some on the aisle. Not sure but the only cause would have been we swishing out the pot with brush. I must of hit it unknowingly.

    Well, I had a real pit to spit out, a real ax to grind, but that was yesterday and yesterday is gone. So far today is flatlined, with no pits or peaks.

    I had a couple of peaks today:

    #1-I figured out the box blade I bought off of Craigslist and was wrong when I thought I'd have to buy replacement parts for it.

    #2-I got a couple of back to-back hang-ups that Caller ID said was a woman I worked with at my last job (haven't spoken in 8 years.) We had been close friends at work. Turns out she had butt-dialed me, so decided to call for real. We spoke for an hour talking about "that place" as though I had just left yesterday. She had taken a 3 year hiatus and then went back. It was nice to hear from her.

    Pit: I have lots I need to do, and apparently motivation is also hung up in these supply chain issues.

    That sucks. It's funny, they can't come and cart you to prison, but something about "bill collectors" keeps one's stomach all tied in knots. I went through a period on my life when they were in frequent contact.

    My recommendation??? Have two Gentlemen Jack chasers for dessert...one for your nerves and one in empathy for those whose life circumstances have caused them to be bill collectors for a living. ;)

    Pit--My wife started her radiation treatment today for cancer

    Peak--Her treatment went very well, she had to put on a special cream last night and this morning I assume to prevent burning. While she was in treatment I went grocery shopping, between store coupons and digital coupons I did very well.

    Pit--waiting to have my first mammogram since treatment ended. Nervous as heck. Facility is running an hour behind.

    Hoping my peak is a clear scan. o_O

    I can understand why.. just deep breathe, slowly in and out.. close the eyes pick a calming word to focus on.
