Took my dad to see his physical therapist, which was quite a bit of exercise in this warm weather. Dad's been struggling the past few days, the heat
combined with a minor viral infection is a bit much. Trying to get him to drink and take extra oxygen.

Took him out for a walk in the evening today, hope he enjoyed it since I heard him complain towards others he can't get out of the house from Tuesday
to Friday - because I work.

I have a new life otto: If you put "Eat chocolate" at the top of your daily To Do list, at least you'll get something done each day!

I’m trying to give up chocolate for the sake of my weight. Plus I’m on the borderline for diabetes, so I don’t want to push my luck.

I should. And I tried back in 2015, with hellish consequences.

Yeah I was fired along with everyone else in the Dutch branch, I was lucky in that my manager gave me leave for 2 weeks.
It's a bit surreal but time for greener pastures.

Good luck Bonny, it seems a lot of companies are doing lay-offs right now. Somehow I have survived at my company but a lot of people I know got let go
it is very sad and they will be missed...The good news is you are young and intelligent which makes you a very desirable candidate for a
business...

Thanks guys!
On Saturday Dad and I went to the funfair. My sister had announced that she would be staying at her place this weekend, but it turns out she was at
our place - without keys so she couldn't get in, noticced the bicycles were there and having no idea where we went. She ad called us but in the hustle
of the fair we hadn't heard our phones - so she was looking for us all over the neighborhood. When I finally got my phone to take a picture I noticed
I had received an SMS with "where are you? I'm so worried."
Dad told me to text back that he had got lost on the heath and I was looking for him.
Today Dad has to go to the hospital for a check-up on his legs. He went by electric bicycle together with my sister. Then I got a text from hers
saying "Dad fell down and we're waiting for the ambulance, he didn 't want me to tell you."
Spent an hour being distraught and asking my sister if dad's okay when I received another text with "you didn't fall for that, did you? We cycled
straight to the hospital and were there early."
Dad's back being nail in the coffin again. He'll be callng friends assholes in no-time flat.

Yeah we now made a promise that we will not joke about Dad's health.
Hes's gaining independance, Friday he went to the market on his own and today to the physical therapist. He's eager to try the supermarket.

Heard the saddening news that one of my former co-workers passed away, a sweet girl. She had just turned 24. I can't believe it...

I understood from my colleagues that she took her life... it's so unreal, she was such a sweet and cheerful young girl. Very tiny and cute - but could
drink you under the table.
Today I held the quiz I had been working on for three weeks, which was good fun with all the colleagues. One of the project managers, with whom I
always got along well, got to join us - first time he saw most of the people from who took over at customer service. It shows what a huge break there
is with the company we had - at the office I could hobnob with anyone. Now, if it's not the same department, you don't speak unless you need someone.
