So cold again, and hopefully clear, and maybe not warming up later. Yesterday stayed within about 4 degrees F all day. And the wind was biting. So it would be nice to be wrong and get some warming later today.
I spent the morning napping after getting the kid to her thing.Spent the afternoon picking up, hitting one Goodwill (for a giant leather jacket and a pair of pants. Jacket was $10 and is a couple of square yards of beautiful soft leather for me to use elsewhere.) Went by my secondary and dropped something off, and then got home to be ready to retrieve kid from her school thing.
Well that happened 2 hours later than she thought it would so I was basically piddling around waiting for a call. Then dinner and some me time (with a couple of hours of looking at auction listings.)
Not a waste of a day, but not super productive either. Today is going to have to pick up some of yesterday’s slack. I feel bad for today…

Sunday. Early and quiet. Good morning!
The quiet before the storm, probably. W1’s mother and godmother have announced a visit towards the end of the month. Or is it an intervention? Sounds ominous.
Today’s project will be getting the guest bedroom straightened out. It is not often required for guests’ use, so it tends to be used as informal storage space instead. That has to be undone today.
As a side dish of additional joy, the flush of the guest bedroom toilet is not shutting off correctly. It will be due to limescale, as we have very hard water here. I will have to dismantle the mechanism from the hole in the wall.
If a soak in acidulated water and a scrubbing don’t fix them, I’ll be off to the plumbing supply house tomorrow for replacement innards. I suppose not having them in stock already is a pepper fail.
Never a dull moment.
Don’t feel bad. Every day you can see the grass from the green side is a good day. You’ll be looking at it from the brown side for long enough.
W1 is still in the land of Nod. Perhaps I will sneak out and get some fresh croissants. Can’t hurt to start a day of work with a little surprise treat.
Treat yourselves to something too!
