Honestly don't recall the specifics but Matt Peters came to mind this am. Reached out, touched based, and initiated plans to meet w/the other two. Initiated the same w/geeks. Last night after I had a 'heart to heart' w/Tommy on the patio regarding his being overwhelmed, I followed through on plans to touch based with Mark and that was good too. I am recognizing a need to aggressively demand and defend some space and boundaries around the routine onslaught of asks, needs and demands. I made a concerted effort to attend to some work tasks w/reasonable but incomplete success. Lauren and I visited her mom and dropped off more of the lingering items we expected to be doing for the first week and her spirits were good. Lauren commented on it too. I hope Tommy makes the most of this time while it's available. My mom had some needs for help getting foods as she's still not sleeping well. Jen got the 1st shot yesterday so that gives me some solace as far as having any further issues crop up. I was feeling overloaded and Lauren echoed some of my prior optimistic ideas and I was really proud and grateful for that reminder. It reminded me of the book "It's not about you". We enjoyed Mojo burgers on the patio last night, I love warm evenings out there and as the weather allows we'll utilize it more. My wine labels arrived. I bathed scottie after waiting too long and delaying too long. My irritation levels with others are really bad right now. I find myself apologizing a lot about it. I started pushing back on level of availability to help with Linda's needs during work hours, but the radiation appointments will no longer require driving too/from SRC as of Monday which makes being there for them an under-1-hour undertaking, which is a lot more manageable.
