I allowed myself a little break and slept in until 7.30! This was another reasonably full day. Lauren and I got the Rug Doctor rental and then went to visit Linda around 9.30-10.30. She was asleep when we arrived. Linda woke up and said she wanted "a family breakfast" a few times. We tried to get more back/forth about from where (Los Gatos Cafe of course) and what (the Scramble with green onions & bacon) but she didn't answer. We talked to her, she answered one or two questions with one or two words. She did say 'help me' a few times and I reassured her we were all helping her. I asked her if she was struggling for words and she said yes, and I said it was something caused by the tumor and medication, and did she understand me, and she said 'yes' again. We stayed with her until she fell asleep again and I took Lauren to work. Once home Jen vacuumed he rooms while I prepped the carpet cleaning mix and I dove into it. I did Tommy's room then Laurens and Jen did ours. I have it until tomorrow night and I'm likely going to make a 2nd pass at a few tough spots while I have it, tomorrow. It's great having it done. I reworked some of the division of funds from my income to compensate for the kids costs changes and to budget for Panorama as well. David and Julia were at Mom's so after I got Lauren we dropped by for a brief visit before they left for Marissas. It was good to see them, they both looked good and I hope to see them again before year end. Jen made wings, and when Lauren and I got home she and Tommy were at the table and talking about business and marketing and education. I love the dynamics at play in our home. It's amazing and so gratifying to have. It's healthy. I talked a bit to Tommy earlier about birthday plans and he wants to hold off and do a trip later in the year. I'm staying up too late and it's messing up my mornings so I'm going to bed ASAP in order to hit the work week tomorrow with gusto.
