Friday Maids Day

Jan 17, 2025 08:12

The manager for the Maids contacted T directly over the weekend while I was away, asking to reschedule our Maids Day to Friday. T checked with me first, then he agreed. Then they told him they'd arrive at 8am on Friday -- a specific time! They never give me a specific time! They didn't copy me on these messages, even though I'm usually the one who contacts them for rescheduling, and I'm the one who pays them.

So, this morning we prepared for a Maids Day, and now it's about 8am. And they're here! I have a 10am meeting with my Boss, I can do it from my bedroom if they're still here, but they usually take under two hours. Meanwhile, Astrid is having a rare Friday prison day, but she won't have to spend all day down there.

I'm teleworking on this final federal workday under Biden. T was planning to commute today but he feels sick, like he's "been hit by a truck". B was planning to come over today to telework and then socialize but I'm sure that's canceled now that T is sick. B is unusually unhappy about spending time in his condo right now, because his HVAC is struggling to keep up with the unusual cold snap. I handed T a box of COVID tests an hour ago but I don't know yet whether he's taken one or what the results are. If he has COVID I might relocate to the condo for a while, or I might just deal with it because I've had all my shots ...

There's a slight layer of fresh snow everywhere this morning, but I'm hoping the sun will burn it off and I'll be able to run today -- oh, yeah, high of 42°F! I'm thinking of extending my rehab running course another 1/4 mile today ...
