Dammit.
Looks like my laptop power cord just crapped out. It was working last night but now I’m not getting any recharge.
Just ordered a new one.
My laptop is my lifeline, as well as my work connection. Now I’m just working off my iPhone.
What new hell is this?

Stacy brought me a wonderful care package of food plus my ballot. I ate well, first time since this quarantine began, made a socially distant run to the post office box and ballot box to drop off. That was my first step outside since I got here. Now I’m watching my Amazon prime power cord delivery, eager to get back to work. That better be the problem - it’s happened before - if not, then I don’t know what to do.
Maybe it’s nap time now…

Napped for a moment. I should nap more regularly in general.
My power cord is just past the ‘shipped’ phase of delivery. It’s been there for some time now. Next is out for delivery then delivered. Meanwhile I surf on my iPhone. Maybe I should nap and eat some more. This quarantine crap is quirky.

At least the illusion of it.
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm

Man, yesterday was stressful. Whilst worrying about the dwindling power on my laptop and doing my work on my tiny iPhone screen, I tried to reboot my TC PC. I got it running once before but couldn't get it to see wifi. This time, I couldn't even get the monitor to acknowledge input. I am not an IT person but lately I seem to be doing an excessive amount of that sort of work and it's frustrating.
I've been thinking that my Cali Roots excursion was an outlier to this 'sheltering in place' thread like the other festivals I worked last year, but it was really a precursor to being in quarantine.
801: Work, self-test, laundry. Fingers crossed that iHealth declares me negative and I can move on. I was amused to see our govt issued self-test kits are manufactured here in svale.

802: Triple telemeet Thursday. I should pick up my mom’s mail. I’ll retest to be sure and hopefully go home. Maybe even Kung fu tonight.

Happy Friday

804: return to Kung Fu (I bailed last Thursday)
Then I don’t know what the rest of the day will bring.

It was hot but I tucked into a shady corner of the parking lot where we practice and had a good session. I had been stagnating prior to getting covid but I felt like I moved some qi today, which was rejuvenating. At the very least, I broke a good sweat, and it's all about that good sweat.
