Good Things Friday (124) and Link Love
July 9, 2021
1. PiC pulled together a lot of meals seemingly out of the ether this week. I’m so grateful.
2. He was able to take on more of the meal prep because his company declared a no meeting week and OMG can they please have more of those??
3. On a totally unscheduled day, after a few instructions on things to do (reading, Spanish, typing practice, short videos), and a few suggestions for fun things that they passed on, JB kept themselves occupied for hours with a self motivated project. That was really nice.
Challenges this week: Work tripled this week as people who generate work for us seemingly all worked on the holiday weekend and some of the people who do the work were unavailable. I told PiC on Thursday that I was on a razor’s edge about to absolutely lose it.
A family friend had a heart attack. They seem like they will be ok but it was of course very worrisome.

I’m so sorry about your friend and your increased workload. I’m glad PiC has been able to help. And I love that you’re teaching them Spanish. Or making them learn it anyway.
Take care of yourself
Thank you!
Aw jeez. Sorry to hear that. Here’s hoping for a calmer week.
Fully support meeting-free week, though – that’s a new one!
Thank you!
