What's on your Wednesday Menu?
Not the home run of getting the kids home for Mother's Day, but a solid single.

You would think so!
But he doesn't let me whine: in his mind behavior A leads to result B, behavior X leads to result Z. Very linear and logical. There are no emotions involved.
I even preface; I'm just complaining I don't need a solution from you...but nope.

Anytime I need to come up with a total, determine an amount, or calculate a percentage, I use a Excel spreadsheet and a formula. Then I can see all of the numbers in front of me and figure out what is needed to manipulate them. Then I name the spreadsheet and save it or reference. There was a point where I did calculations in Word documents but I no longer have the patience to write those routines. Because I cook for one, converting recipes can be a challenge. My food program, Paprika, does that for me easily. Math is something we use constantly, although we rarely think about it.

Good morning. It's only Wednesday... This week is dragging for me.
Yesterday I got on a phone and spent 3 hrs on a phone... That's a totally not like me. But, I hope it helped the person I was talking to. At the same time I was able to do laundry, and ate dinner, but completely ignored Keith. I will make up for that this weekend. Looking forward to a 3-day weekend.
Work is busy as always. Working crew-2 groups, had to be reassigned from one type to another. But it's either that - or let go of 7 people. And we have plenty to do in the cable department. If they want to learn. ugh. The resistance of learning new things is strong.
QOTD: I'm an engineer and business HR and accounting controller. So I use math all the time. I can add, substruct, and multiply larger numbers in my head... Sometimes it just clicks..
The steroid injection on Monday - I "gained" 4 lbs. Whatever.
Today I need to finish a few tasks at work. Large ones. ugh.
Menu:
liquids... and then some
Late L: some meat and veggies... what? not sure...
Dinner: other meat and veggies.. I have a selection.. or tuna salad on lettuce
S: cheese apple or grapefruit...
