Two-and-a-half days at work last week. Didn't see my rural clients because of road conditions, and we got another snowstorm on Friday. I wasn't feeling great Friday morning and went in with the plan of sorting one client's apartment concerns out, then either WFH or taking a half-day and watching the weather from the comfort of my couch.

That didn't happen. When the weather started hitting, the powers-that-be made the sensible decision to close our offices and clinics at 1PM. All good - that fit into my plans. About 12:40 the client mentioned above called, told me he was a couple of blocks from the center and needed a way home. I told him to get to the center and I'd get him home. What should have been a 20-minute drive took a little over an hour. Okay, great, I'm only burning three hours of PTO. I headed for home.

That's when the second call of the day came in. Another client needing help. I judged that the roads weren't too dangerous yet, offered up a prayer to Max Rockatansky, and headed back out. Got him to the grocery and back, and then got my own precious self home.

And that's where I stayed for the weekend, save for a quick trip to pick up a pizza on Sunday afternoon. The second wave of snow wasn't bad, and warmer temps today melted a lot of the snow off.

Today should have been better, but it started off with putting out more of someone else's fires and progressed to wrangling one of my own and then a couple more. Tomorrow,I need to put my people (and myself) first and take care of us.

Let's see how that works out.

Ravens beat the Steelers, and that was the best thing about a good NFL Wild Card weekend. The final game of the weekend is going on right now. It was supposed to be played in LA, but some horrific fires forced a move to Phoenix, to be played in a stadium whose naming rights belong to an insurance company that canceled a load of homeowners' policies in the wildfire area last year. I guess the universe does have a sense of the absurd.

Whatever. We're doomed.
