My sleeping at night is still an issue. I will be incredibly tired but as soon as my head hits the pillow, a million different thoughts flood my mind. I hope this ends soon.

Today at work was the same as usual. I watched Reaper, read, played games on my tablet, and made a bit of a start on my next cross stitch. I also came up with an idea for a new cross stitch but I need to come up with the design for it. It looks cool in my head, so that's a good start.

After work I went home to change and then went to pick up dinner. I got a parking spot right off the bat at Jimmy John's but it took three passes before I got one at Chipotle. And then had to wait in line. It is going to be a little annoying having to go after work rather than at 5:00PM. But the burrito was good. I am still liking the medium salsa.

After dinner I went over with my mom and sister to see my grandma. My sister is doing a bunch of stuff around the house for her since she broke her leg, one of those things being watering the plants. My grandma has a very particular way of doing it and gets a little frustrated by not being able to do it herself and she becomes a little critical of my sister's technique. Even though she has never killed one of my grandma's plants. So while we sat on the patio and my sister watered, my mom and I kind of ran interference for my sister so my grandma couldn't get on her too badly. It worked and it was good to see my grandma. I might go back over on Friday because my uncle will be back in town and he and my dad are supposed to put in a new shower for her. I think it will be my brother's and my job to take out all the stuff that gets ripped out of the bathroom. As long as we get started early enough because I have to work at six o'clock.

My TV arrived today. I didn't have the time to put up the wall mount but I did set up the TV to check it out. I like it. The bezel around it is so small, about a half an inch, and it looks a lot bigger than 32-inches. And it dwarfs my 24” monitors. I am looking forward to getting it up on the wall but I'm not sure when I'll have the time to do that. If I don't have the visit tomorrow with the kid I can probably do it after work. If not then I'll have to wait until Saturday or Sunday. I also wouldn't mind waiting a couple days just to make sure nothing happens to the TV and that I actually like it. Or more accurately, that nothing is wrong with it. Although it looks fine now. Fingers crossed.

Now I might read a little and then try to go to bed. We have an early show tomorrow at work so I have to be there at 9:00AM. Probably later actually but I don't know what time the movie actually starts so I'll just show up at 9:00AM. Which really isn't that early, at least compared to my school year schedule, but I am fully steeped in my summer schedule, so it is kind of early now, especially with my sleeping issues as of late. I'll survive.
