KateP's musings

How is it possible that I am still doing laundry at 9:30 at night?   I freaking started at 10 am and kept it going.   The only time I couldn’t move it along was while I was at church.   I don’t think I had that many loads to start with. When Mom came home from the store it was about 2.    Ethel called a short time later and told Mom she was taking the 1:45 from 125 th Street.   So Mom needed to pick her up after 3.   She ended up having to miss the Good Friday services.   We both left at the same time. While Mom went to pick up Ethel I headed to church.   There were a lot of people at this service.   I sat in front of the church.   I met the organist’s parents.   I knew Nancy C for many years through the Prayer group at OLOV.   She was my organ teacher for a short time.   The service was long.   It usually is and I usually get tired of all the standing.   My eyes felt a little weird and my ...

Today was totally tubular. I got up early and got my day started. I ironed my clothes made my bed and folded the clothes I left in the dryer downstairs. I even managed to catch some of Angel on TNT. It was the one where Holt takes baby Connor to the other dimension. I got to Roberta’s house to find the pups waiting for me and so gave them some attention and then went inside to get the cat fed (and get some treats for the pups). It didn’t take long and I was on the road again a short time later. The drive was okay even though I thought the highway seemed busy. Maybe it was where I got on. Once I got to New Haven it seemed better. I was glad because I didn’t want to be late. It was before 8 when I got to the building so I got some coffee and then went upstairs and got settled in. It took me some time to start my work. I really should have started on yesterday’s work immediately but I didn’t. I chatted with Joan for a bit and with Terry. A short time later the charts and morni...

Good Morning and Happy Columbus Day. I am sure most if not all of you have off today. I am not one of them. It looks like today will be a slow day. I have already started the requisition list for Medical Records for tomorrow. I got the mail from the lobby and it is already distributed. The weather here is overcast and a bit chilly (at least for me) I drove by the New Haven Register and their Temperature monitor read 68 degrees. Well it is quarter of two and it is pretty quiet around here. The sun came out after all after a shower. I have heard some say it is about 70 degrees. I am not sure I will find out until I leave at the end of the day. I had a few things to do. Right now I am stuffing envelopes for the collection department that will go out tomorrow. I have been working on the bulk mail as well. I am not sure if I will get that done today or not. Well I have a lot more to do more it is at a manageable size. I can do those tomorrow. Well it is 20 of 4 and I will be leaving soon. I...

I haven't been up really that long. I tried to get up at 5. I did for a short time and decided to lie down again and fell asleep for about three hours. There is a cool breeze this morning and the sun is shining. It is really a beautiful day so far. I did manage to make my bed and get laundry started. AFter that I don't know what I want to do even though I made one of those to do lists/schedules. One thing I decided to do was empty out my mailbox. At least the journal mailbox for right now. I was checking to see what I had missed. It was the Check in posts that occur every Sunday. One person name Jesse just recently joined so she is getting her feet wet but is having writer's block. The afternoon was a great one. I went to the post office and then to Good Will to drop off stuff for Mom and Sylvia. On the way to the Good Will I was nearly hit by an EMT truck. I was turning the corner and it just approached the intersection with its lights and sirens but I didn't see them ...
