obstreperous

Obstreperous - a word that sounds like what it means. 

Despite taking Samuel out FOUR TIMES last night, today was better than yesterday. Thank you for the sympathy. 

A friend of mine got Covid and had to stay in the hospital. She has finally been released. Many thanks to her coworker who went to work, coughing, w/o wearing a mask. Oh. And he's a medical doctor. 

The organization that loved my photos and wants to help? They are teaching LGBT kids PHOTOGRAPHY!!!!! Kids could submit to the show! I am so psyched. I can't wait to meet with them again. 

Will I be working next week? I don't know. Neither does anyone else. Also, to make it more entertaining, if the government shuts down, I still don't know if I'm working next week. I'll find out Friday whether I work if we shut down. Maybe I find out Saturday midnight if I work next week.

Russia spent massive amounts to win the unimportant town of Bakhmut. This was the only success Russia had for months so they bragged about it incessantly.  Ukraine has recaptured Klishchiyivka and Andriivka, two towns nearby, so now it is not clear that Russia will keep Bakhmut.
