A Monday at home

October 30, 2023, Monday night 6:50pm, pacific standard time, apartment in Dana Point, California, USA. Today was a rare Monday at home. For the past three years I have spent most weekdays in Phoenix or on the road. It is nice to be home but I don’t want it to become a regular thing. I like my work life and my home life separate. That way I am focused on being a good employee during the week and a good dad on weekends. Today is the 14 year anniversary of my last day as a chaplain. I would have missed that fact if I hadn’t gone back and read posts from last year. So much has changed since then, lots of Utah memories surfaced today, most of them good. Finally, The infection I have been dealing with the past four weeks hasn’t gotten better. I have seen three doctors and completed three rounds of antibiotics yet nothing has worked. I am starting to get frustrated. Not sure what to do next. It seems like such a minor problem but no tests have diagnosed the issue and no treatments have resolved it. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day. The doctors office called and left a message wondering how I am doing. I will call them and see if they recommend any other treatments.
