What an entire fucking week that was.
The heating has indeed been fixed. It's been mostly fixed, which is to say it's safe to run it again and we have the house at a temperature compatible with comfortable life, and if the last piece that needs to be replaced goes the only thing that will happen is the boiler will shut off. As opposed to when the entire panel was blown and we could have had an electrical fire. In this case there's a fuse that needs to be replaced, so the heating guy is going to come on Monday and replace it.The root canal happened. The endodontist was pretty nice, and the practice gave me a free soup to eat afterwards, I assume they have some promo deal with a local kitchen but it was a nice gesture. And good soup. We made the bank appointment as the downtown branch of my bank is closing and now we have to rearrange some things. Stuff happened on Thursday that nobody saw until it resolves, and I had therapy wherein I freaked out and was nervous at my therapist for an hour while he gently reminded me that things are going to be okay.It's been an entire fucking week.
And next week we have This Fucking Week Part 2, which involves another heating appointment, another Unmentioned Thing, another dentist thing, and another bank thing. In fact the only thing that isn't repeating is my therapist appointment, which is sort of a pity. Though at this point I feel steadier, just also very exhausted about everything. Thank goodness after next week I have a whole week off work and no more dentist things for a while, hopefully no more heating things till spring (there's some maintenance been recommended), no more bank thing, and the unmentioned thing will have resolved itself. At which point it will become a Mentioned Thing.
We did some grocery shopping this morning but it still feels like Friday and now I am sulking that I don't have two days off to rest and recover. I want two more days off to rest and recover. (Admittedly I *could* take Monday off but I still have work to do.) I'm also vaguely wondering when I became a person more interested in bananas and peanut butter sandwiches than the cookie in the fridge, but then again I've never exactly willfully eschewed healthy food, I just like cheese and chocolate. I don't know. Maybe it's just that I'm tired and everything is weird and slightly off today. Maybe I need a good long sleep and that'll reset everything and I'll feel better again.
We did watch the first three episodes of Reacher, so that was relaxing and enjoyable. I'm also enjoying the fun they're having with title cards. (Look up "Reacher's Back" for an example.) Then we watched The Batman, and I'm not sure what I think of that except the narration is horrible, and now we're watching the Tom Cruise Mummy movie which has about 90% too much Tom Cruise.
