When I got up yesterday morning I had a feeling I was going to be in a bad mood all day. Once again, I had a hard time getting to sleep so that was really starting to get to me. Then, while I was drinking my morning coffee I started reading more information on the recent patient in America who was diagnosed with Ebola and I got into an even more bad mood. It's hard to believe how badly the hospital, who saw the patient initially then sent him home, botched up the diagnosis and potentially put dozens of people at risk. The more I read about the whole situation horrifies me. Even though the CDC is still closely monitoring the situation there still botching things up, for instance I read today that they still haven't decontaminated the apartment where he was sick. That wouldn't be a big deal if there weren't people living in there, but there are family members quarantined there! Apparently the decontamination crews don't have permits to destroy Ebola waste. Ugh, aren't these things which the CDC should have been figuring out over the last several months, when we knew the potential for the virus to come here was unavoidable?! I could talk about how angry this is making me the whole blog but I better stop. Anyway, after my coffee I worked on getting the guest list for the wedding into a Word document which I can just give my twin sister, who will be doing the invitations for me. I still need some help from my fiancé with some name and address issues, but hopefully we can finish it up tonight after I get out of work.
I ate lunch around 12:30pm, then gathered up all of the trash around the house for garbage pick up day, then cleaned the downstairs toilet, and finally took a shower. After my shower I folded the laundry from the day before and headed into work. I was in an equally bad mood at work and was glad I was working away from our main location, because I didn't really want to talk to anyone. My mood definitely improved as the evening went on and I ended up feeling a lot better after a few hours. I got a coffee around 5:30pm, then had dinner around 8:30pm. I left work right on time and when I got to my house my fiancé was at my house:)
I hadn't seen my fiancé since last Saturday morning since he wasn't able to come Tuesday night and it was great to see him. I was excited because he stayed up way later than he should have, to spend some time with me:) I ended up going up to bed when he did around 1am. Since this week at work I've been working in an area where there isn't a nearby sink my hands actually look pretty decent. I hope they stay that way because our bridal shower/engagement party is tomorrow and I don't want them looking so red. I'm honestly very worried about what this whole Ebola fear is going to do to my psyche, since they still say the best thing you can do to protect yourself is wash your hand routinely. Well, I guess there's nothing I can do about it at this point, so I'm just continuing to follow the headlines so I'm right on top of where it may appear next. I mean, it would be a blessing if no one else got it, but that seems nearly impossible at this point. Alright, that's all for now!
