Day 103 -- Catch-up

Today, I caught up on all the things I put off this weekend so I would have most time with Jamie and Allie, and with Jarrod.  Somehow the laundry did not get done, the bed did not get stripped, the pots and pans washed, and the dishwasher run.  And on top of that, it was a Nancy Monday.
Most of the day was spent on getting the chores done.  The placement of the triangular table at the head of my bed made a perfect platform for the CPAP, and it seemed to work well there.  Once again, I woke up at 2+ am and again at 4.  Each time took a few minutes to get back to sleep.  Also had some night sweating -- so I don't know if the CPAP is going to take care of that.
LinCare called today to see if everything was OK with the CPAP.  Told him I had tweaked it by relocating it and turning down the heat by one notch.  Anna V. also called to tell me she has to be at the polls on the 24th and asked if I would cover that day for her at the W. Tampa Library.  I agreed, and as we talked, she asked that I take both days, making the paperwork easier.  I agreed and thanked her for the opportunity.
Decided tonight to take a quick shower -- see if that will make any difference with the night sweats.  Also, with clean sheets on the bed, I may start a new washing schedule  -- maybe the sheets will last a little longer.
Talked to Mike T. to set up an appointment with him before the TOSC team gets together on the 19th.  I'll call him Friday to set a time for us to meet.
A busy day.  Not so busy that on more than one occasion I bumped into that spot that takes a few moments to realize that Margaret is really gone, and no matter what I do or don't do will change that reality.  I really miss her!
