Just to start off with light-hearted stuff (as I need it, like this blog) I picked up Amazon’s new item “the Spot”. Best Buy had it on sale Sunday for $109 withe $25 BB gift card included. It’s probably the best bed side clock, I’ve ever owned. The #1 feature are the choices of the clock faces including font/style/colors/wallpapers/ and most importantly, its’ dim ability. From bright eye popping bright to total blackness. And the gradient in-between choices are not some clunky four fixed positions like 1,2,3 & 4. Instead, a smooth wheel on the side with the same functionality of, well, a dimmer switch for a dining room lamp. Infinite.
it also has the functionality of being an ideal replacement for a “I’ve fallen and can’t get up” gadget. I tested it Sunday with Lily at home (which seems like a month ago, really). I said, just above an “inside voice”, “Amazon (pause) call mom at home”. And bingo, The Spot’s clock face switched to a near copy of the iPhone’s “calling” screen ( of which I smell a lawsuit upcoming) and started ring her mom. After, segregation answered, the now-speaker-phone had great voice quality-we all agreed. It was just like a regular call. And if mom wasn’t home, Lily could call 911 or any other number including your cells entire address book. You contacts section links to your cell phone via Bluetooth. The pairing takes 5 seconds. And it only has to be done once. Every time you enter you mr house, they automatically pair.
I’m off to the hospital this morning. I just got off of the phone with Lilly’s mom. Her mother stayed with Lily until about midnight, last night.
She said that Lily was still “fired up “as when I had left her earlier. We are both slightly pleased at this new normal of Lily, but it is disturbing, as well, for obvious reasons.
I called into work to my very kind boss (whose a Christian) and left a message that I would be gone for the next couple of hours but might return home and actually try of work a little bit. The main reason is that Lily and I talked yesterday that today might be filled with a lot of tests, where Lily won’t even be in her room to visit. And since “idle time is the devils playground “adage still applies, work might be a desperate relief. I know this is likely to be far too optimistic, but I have to force myself to think like this just to survive. To keep my sanity.
Lily’s mom was going back to the hospital at about 8am. I said I would be there around 9am. Hopefully, a doctor or two have already given Lily an update. So, I’m off.
I’ll try to update you when I find out the game plan this morning.
Fucking hell, am I tired all of a sudden. I thought I slept some what well. But I don’t think that I did.
