Man, what a day. Got up and Norton had royally messed up last night. And it was Friday. Don's day off and he was looking forward to it too. Well, I did finally call him about 10 a.m. and he came over. At first, we thought we had it fixed pretty easily but then it wound up eating the entire day until 4 p.m., then off and on after 4. I am glad to be finished with this. I really like having my p. c. for so many things. But man, when they mess up, it can really be difficult to get them back in working order.

Milo has been the calmest thing in the house today. He thought all this sitting & staring at a p. c. screen was peculiar but he bore with it and sat very calmly in a chair beside or between me and Don. He is in here right now kind of nodding off. I think he is bored. I was supposed to do a bunch of reading today and have done none as well as straighten up on the house and clean on it too. Not done either. I have those folks coming for the Yale/Duke meningioma study next week and I want at least to have a presentable living room area. I think I can manage that but I want to unpile the bedroom if possible too. I think unpiling the bedroom is an impossible dream, at least in a week's time-frame (between all else that is booked into next Monday through Wednesday) but I can maybe make a good start and get some of the larger items put away.

As for now, I'm tired and I'm going to go to bed and watch a little tv. Lord willing, Milo will come with me but he's probably secretly waiting for me to get up out of this nice office chair so he can get on it. Grayson is already on my blanket so I'll have to disappoint him right off just to get on the bed in the first place. Poor Milo never did get his shower today. Guess we'll take an extra long one tomorrow morning.
