January 19
still working on the international students and the graduating students and the students where the new people have opinions and on and on. First day of class and less stress, but also more loneliness. Gotta make everybody members on teams, gotta get the stats.
We hit 400,000 dead today and Potus 46 and VP mourned them publicly and beautifully. Maybe tomorrow gets to be a new day.
January 20-21
Wednesday was inauguration and I spent most of the day in front of the TV and everybody survived and it was nice and funny and Amanda Gorman was amazing and there was Lady Gaga and JLo and beautiful and colorful outfits and a firefighter who signed and recited the Pledge of Allegiance and the police who ran the mobsters in the wrong direction, Eugene Goodman, accompanied Harris. In the evening a lovely tribute to American and the everyday heroes and the music and art and creativity.
Thursday I did the food pantry and met Saleem and did the admin meeting from my office. Back home for two more meetings and then a Lewis and meatloaf. There are regular press briefings from the White House and Faucci is free to give information as he sees fit.
January 22-24
Went too quickly. Talked to mom a couple of times, including on Grays birthday on the 23. Email from Linda that was kinda stressful. Missed the fish on Friday so we went for Saturday lunch after we had taken five boxes for shredding. With dinner we watched an episode of Annika Bengtzon - crime detective that was kinda silly but it's always fun to see Stockholm. Milton on Sunday and then talked to Annika whose T is not doing well. He is dizzy and has tumors in the brain which means they pull him out of any trials and we don't know if he gets chemo or not and it just royally sucks.
Sweden: 547,166 - 11,005 dead
