I had hoped to post a longish report on how I'm doing with my ADHD medication (not just for you guys but so that I'll have a contemporaneous record for future reference), but I just had a phone call from my girl Friday (Angie, who works along with me here on the receiving dock) that she is in the emergency room right now with a kidney stone flare up. That means double duty for me, and Angie is a real workhorse, so she will be sorely missed and hard to replace.
But you have to roll with the punches. I made a new FB friend over the weekend--she was just on the "people you may know" thumbnail, and we had enough mutual friends so that I was sure she was another writer, so I hit the friend request button. A bit later she approved me and once I could see her page, the first status I saw was about her son having to go to the ER with an apparent, and totally unprecedented, seizure. Every parent knows how fast a child can go from fine to throwing up. It's always wise to expect the unexpected in life. (I asked how he was doing the next day and she said it was as if nothing had happened--but that it happened is unnerving, you have to follow-up on it, and you'll always wonder if or when it will happen again.)
That's also one of the reasons I try to be tentative in my plans, and in what I write on my blog about what I plan to do "today." One of my best online friends, and she knows who she is, usually blogs in the morning and discusses her plans for the day, and it's almost always a tragicomedy to chat with her later in the day to find out what calamities occurred instead.
Anyway, off to the races this morning.
