The start of spring has been a bit miserable, with health and weather. But I'm looking forward to this weekend.
I was sick with bronchitis a few weeks ago, and I had to make up those hours over the past two weeks. I guess having a smoking client and pets around just gets to me after a while. The drastic fluctuations between warm and cold make it so much worse. Making up these sick days has worn me out.
In addition, I've been emotionally drained. Denise's dad was close to dying. I think of it like this: 0 is death and 10 is healthy as a fit 20-something. He dropped to .001 last Thursday, then bounced to .75. Then a week ago, he dropped to .0001, then climbed back to .5. I did my best to be there for her and her brother. My way of coping was making observations and suggestions that could help; pushing down the emotions to try to be as stoic as I could.
Since her dad has been feeling better, Denise wants to take me on a weekend getaway. She said I will need to pack a swimsuit. Since we're probably not completely done with winter, I am guessing this is indoors. Since it is overnight, I am guessing this is a motel or hotel. Probability leans toward hotel, since hotels are more likely to have an indoor pool.
Regardless of where it is, I will be happy to have that getaway with this person I love dearly.
