Cool last night, and I’m hoping for more of that. It was so nice when I went to pick up the kid from an extra night of her solo activity, that I had the windows down and sat out for a couple hours reading. This year seems to have been much cooler than average. Maybe that will continue today. I expect more of the geographically dispersed storm cells too.
I did my pickups yesterday, filled the back of the truck. Let storm cells chase me all over the north side of metro Houston and only got caught in one. It seemed like it would wash the paint off the truck it was coming down so hard, but after only a few minutes I was through it and back into sun.
Today I have a couple of hobby things to pick up, and a lot of cleaning, moving, sorting, and stacking to do. Lots of neglected jobs around the house will be calling me. I don’t know how many I’ll answer, but it will be some.
Since there are always more things to do than time and energy to do them, I’m sure the list won’t get much shorter. I do still have to try.
On a completely different note, the cut on the back of my finger has healed into a nice scar. It still has some strong sensations when I bump it or press on it, but I think it’s as healed as it will get. Took longer than I thought it would but it still healed. As I’m getting older, I’m realizing that healing well isn’t a given any more. Over the course of my life, I’ve had a lot of injuries but I’ve always healed. At some point, I know I won’t be able to count on that anymore, and that’s a sobering realization.
Medical stacks made the difference this time. Decent physical condition helped. Time to start planning for the future wrt my body and abilities too. I can’t stockpile good health, but I can benefit from a lifetime of good nutrition and good genes. I can prep so my kids have those benefits too.
Hmm, what to stack? I’m not sure, but I’m sure I’ll figure it out and stack what I can.
