I go in flying tubes! Oh, wait. Airplanes. Similar. Different.
I am at the library, learning about how to set up and run a nonprofit. Which is to say, ALL DIFFERENT from how my current group has been doing it the past couple years. Sigh.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
So, then what? They have to poke in there with a broomstick until the toddler current is running unimpeded again?

Also, it turns out xkcd had it all wrong and we can stop worrying about the rovers because THEY ARE PERFECTLY HAPPY ON MARS.

OK, so I had great timing. Swept the front walk and headed over to the pool, intent on doing a long swim. Just as I'm finishing up (65 laps, yay!) they announce they are closing in 15 minutes due to weather. So glad I didn't decide to clean house first.
I did scrape up my knee cause I had to use a shallow lane, but other than that, it was very good. I swim better when I'm mildly hungry.
And it's way more than 3 inches on the ground and still coming.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
My day has been good. I made coffee and yummy ginger scones for breakfast. Now DH is being a good citizen and helping out with the e-waste recycling fundraiser at school and kids are playing. Would be banner day if only the GRADING FAIRIES would come and SAVE ME!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
heat gun and paint scraping while wearing a mask = sweaty. I think it's going a lot faster than the stripper stuff did. I at least feel a lot more accomplished. still? not very much.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
this is perfect for me, and solves two of my problems!
What were your problems? What is/are still extant?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What were your problems? What is/are still extant?
A lack of instant oatmeal (I was going to get some at Costco today) and an excess of quick-cooking plain oats and tiny plastic bags!
Continuing problems include no job and a foot injury. I'm not sure the oats will help.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You never know -- isn't oatmeal supposed to be good for everything?

I hate when I do this -- I'm totally ready to go, and now have an hour to sit here.
