In sickness and....sickness....and sickness

the plague continues. kid has been out of school forEVER, i've missed so many days that i'm getting docked pay now, and it sort of feels like there's no end to this nastiness.

well, at least on the kid's end. =\ she got punted from school due to her cough, went back to urgent care, got a breathing treatment that didn't help, and is on a different inhaler. she has a "real" doctor appointment next week, so hopefully things will be all fixed by then and we can cancel.

i'm actually feeling better -- good enough to go see the horse boy tonight and scoop some poo and pet me some pony. it's been two weeks since i've been near a horse, so...yeah.

i'm not feeling things, either. me not having my own beast is feeling problematic and sulky. i am talking to a lady about a warm blood later, but we'll see.

swear, i'm about ready to just go find my own damn horse and show up at the barn all "hi! look what i found!"

but that might not end well.

anyway.

yesterday i started reading "the aviator's wife" and it's decidedly meh, with wayyyyy too many adjectives muddying the water. i never realized how much i dislike overpopulated adjectives until the last year or so; now, i'm hyper aware and hyper annoyed. still, i will probably finish it since it's not exceptionally bad. just sort of bad.

meh.

i need to take a big step off fb, but need it right now for horse shopping. maybe i'll make a burner account for that -- do i need a different e-mail for that?

bah. i guess i should figure that out tonight.
