1 Cortisone shot
1 Discharged Dad
1 Relieved Daughter

Dad’s still in the hospital, but doing ok. He is now actively talking about wanting to go home. I think not much non-emergency work gets done on Saturday and Sunday. Dr. PainMgmt and Dr. Cortisone still have to come in to see him.
I’m still in paper-writing mode. I have a paper [...]

I talked with Dad this morning. He sounds so much better today. The nurse had been in earlier this morning and given him a bath and he had just finished his breakfast of Cream of Wheat. He reports they’re feeding him good. Also, because step-daughter is a nurse and knows people [...]

2. Write discussion post for #1
3. Read and annotate 1/2 Romanticism assignment
4. Read WAC articles
5. Write listserv post for #4
6. Do laundry
7. Walk on [...]
