(#5771) Very busy next 2 weeks

      I am in one of those intervals of time where my ability to do nothing is severely hampered. I am at the age, 69 now, where the idea of having nothing to do at home but my chores is my favorite pastime. Yet for the next couple of weeks, starting this morning, that will be on hold. I do go in today for work as well as tomorrow. Then the next day appointment for eyewear. Saturday is going to be interesting as the atmospheric storm that is starting here in about 2 hours will begin to relent for a short period and allow me to get outside and assess my work outside.
     Then comes Sunday. I work on Sunday so that day is busy. What would normally be two days off for me on Monday and Tuesday will become temporary work days. The reason is that my normal work days of Wednesday and Thursday cannot be worked so I switched my schedule for this week. After working on Monday and Tuesday I will on Wednesday have Carpal Tunnel surgery on my right wrist. Hopefully that will have no pitfalls and I will be able to go home after the surgery. Of course the following day is Thanksgiving and I am slated to be with family at my niece's home. Which should be interesting since I don't know yet what limitations I will have given the surgery from the day before.
     I do plan to go to work after resting my wrist for the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving and then Sunday resume my work. That is my plan anyway and if it holds to what I think I can do I will have done quite a bit in a short period of time. I am not in the best of health at the moment working through some other physical challenges but I do believe I can make this work and then repeat it with my left wrist in less than two months. Anyway I do look forward to getting back to my otherwise busy schedule of doing nothing in short order. I say doing nothing but what I really mean is I get to do what I would like to do instead of what I have to do.
