I had to look... the shadow period has begun

[Melissa G]

5. Up until yesterday, the work was actually effective!

Thursday, I was working on getting a wireless system set up. Should have taken an hour, tops; it took all day and it's still not finished correctly.

I just work until I hit the wall of diminishing returns. I think I am there. Time to focus on old things that need to be done or likely redone from the last Merc Rx and take it easier.
Lots of health /elder care going on right now which is swallowing up all available extra time anyway.
Hope your work goes well.
