Wow, just got done with something different

My second life group leader/owner asked me if I could type fast.. I can..when I only have to do it from my head. There was a memorial thing today called ROF, Remembering Our Friends day on SL. They needed someone to transcribe the speakers and what they said.
hooboy!
Well did my best, it was kind of emotional due to people relating their experience on SL and what the ROF had done for them getting through emotional losses of friends and family.
It's an organization that has a memorial area for people who have lost friends and family they have either in real life or on SL. This is a real thing, not virtual friends. Some people make very real friends and meet people they get very close to on the internet and SL is no exception. So this organization has a sim that has a chapel, a childrens wing, as well as benches and plaques that people have purchased and placed in the area.
It's a place where people who are half a world apart that have known each other on SL and lost someone can come together in a virtual place when they can't be there physically.
Very touching and it was worth while to do it. Even though my fingers are seriously tired now! They also are supporting and running the Cancer Society Relay for Life..don't know if it's on SL but they are raising money on there for Cancer Society..so it's a real thing.

Anyway...
other than that, my stubble is continuing to fall out. Just rubbed my head and it looked like someone had cleaned a shaver on my keyboard shelf.
Fatigue has been kind of constant now, been trying to work through it, but it's slowing me down. Can't do as much at work as I used to, and going to definitely start the paperwork Monday for disability starting either next weekend or the following week. Maybe sooner is better.
Other than that, just waiting for the dang weather to make up it's mind! Yesterday it was mid to high 70's and clear, today partly cloudy and cooler.
Need to get going now and try to get gas before work. Not likely to happen, but I can get to work and back at least on what's left in my tank.

No worthy quote at this time. Sorry..
