Television and other things...but mostly just television

Decided the continuous switches in weather are making me irritable and causing a kind of brain fog, that's making it difficult to focus on anything.

Tried out some television series on NETFLIX and HBO today. Also discovered a lot of movies had migrated to HBO Max. There's a wealth of content on HBO Max.

Dealing with the Sunday Scaries. Have two things I'm dreading next week - a teams meeting with vendors, etc, regarding a new project I'm procuring, and a site tour to various spots around Long Island by car with a bunch of men. We have five different locals. So lots of driving about with male project managers, most likely not wearing masks. With any luck it won't be raining, and sunny for the Site Tour.

Oh well, one day at a time, right? I need to start meditating again, I've kind of stopped and I've been noticing a difference.
