December 14 - 16
Monday lunch in the park. I went to campus a little bit and said goodbye for the winter break. Students were getting pictures for graduation and Kevin was there studying as always. I drove home and stopped to get my inspection done. We hit 300,000 dead in the US and the electors voted for Biden so now he really is president-elect. Even Putin said so and after him Mitch McConnell. The first Americans got vaccinated.
Tuesday a lot was not working because they were migrating servers. I still got some done and we did the second night in a row at teh store room. The hacking of so many companies and government agencies wer reported - scary.
Wednesday we had a brief meeting with the grad team and Alice was there and the world is better. I renewed the car registration. One year anniversary of Tracey's death. Over 3,400 people dead in one day in the US - is this the winning we were supposed to be doing ...

December 17
Potbelly lunch in the park and then back to work. Finally got the new class set up for the certificate. Did some other stuff and then we went to the STOREROOM and emptied the old one completely. So happy about that. Tomorrow we can cancel it and be done. Watched Iliza - confirmedkills from 2016. She is devastating at times. Buttdialed mom and scared her - she scared me when she called to check on how I was doing ... oh well. At least we are both well.
December 18
Did the last day of work and stuff and things and then we had fish n fizz for dinner. Checked the news a bit and learned more scary things about the hack - so many systems affected. Jim went to bed early and I played a big fish game for a bit. Yay
December 19
Talked to Annika who's fine but T is having side effects and then breakfast tacos at fuel city and then stoneridge mall for ellipticals but we stopped at beads unlimited on the way and then we did lunch at Terry Blacks and then home and I talked to Jonas who said Rs sister tried to commit suicide .... *sigh* and told me mom got sick from the flu vaccine she took but is better today. Forgot to take my meds Friday night so feeling a bit antsy but taking them tonight. Worried about Nietzsche who has diarrhea and feels puny. *sigh* Got popcorn from teh movie theater and watched Die Hard - still fun.
US 17,649,057 - 316,144 dead today.
December 20
Talked to Rachel (who figured out that I was really hoping Milton would succeed in explaining the ways of god to man and then to Simon (who is still looking for meaning and finds dating problematic but does like his job and plays in a band) and then went out for something and checked on ellipticals and they were out at Dick's and then we had lasagna and then we watched SNL and then we went out again and got catfood and stuff and then we watched Heartridge Hotel with dinner (I ate the last rib and Jim had some Mac n Chese). Somewhere I figured out that you get jaded because you have seen so many of each thing when you get to a certain age so fewer things are new and inspiring and you think the stuff you grew up with is better because that was new and fresh (even if it was only new and fresh and original to you).
Apparently there is a deal for another cares package - finally.
