That sounds good.

Maybe I will have a quesadilla. I've got all the ingredients and it's not very demanding to put together.

I hope you end up having a good evening, Consuela.

So I just heated up some blueberries with a little blueberry jam and put it over leftover buttermilk biscuits, and it is delicious! And now I have only had foods that start with B for dinner.

That meal was brought to you by the letter B and the number 3.

The past two nights I've had family anxiety dreams, but the first nights was so bad that I stayed home. I was disturbed and undone and I don't I is where it came from and I'll refuse to talk about it ever and never mind move along .

Having grown up with a family of alcoholics, they do a NUMBER on those closest to them. Have you ever checked out al-anon? Helps get some distance and with the bottomless rage and heartbreak which comes form dealing with a drinker.

Good for you, Brenda, for giving her a good loooong home, toe biting fluff and all.

Tonight I unpacked my workbench and assembled the drawers. And reorged/rearranged/cleaned part of the basement so I have a good place to assemble it and put it! The main may be a two person job- Joe & Sarah have already volunteered, with a gleam in their eyes: it has a vice.

Repacked some old boxes of stuff, tossed out some old vacuums and fans in the alley for the roving junk collectors.

Pleased with tonight's progress.

Very exciting, sara!

Hubby found two cheesecakes on the supermarket bakery discount rack. He was so moved by their plight that he brought them home, where they are fulfilling their destiny deliciously.

It's like this one: [link] Only composite/mdf is in the drawer bottoms. I'm going to use different handles if I can find ones to fit.

Good for him, Connie!

Learned Sunday that a cousin has a form of non-hodgkins lymphoma. He started chemo today. Not even going to go into how many things are fucked up about the situation and healthcare and I don't really know much, will leave that to his immediate family and the cancer specialist in the family (my brother.) And we just lost our uncle and he did TG with my aunt and of course didn't tell her, but now she's closest but she has a cold so can't visit but his dad is there and our uncle who has ridden a similar ride is planning on heading out for the worst of it and... All I'm going to ask is please no 'fuck cancer's for this. For reasons I cannot articulate or really understand and that make no sense (cause I do love my cousin Barry,) in this instance, it would actually infuriate me.

I hear you on that. I'm sorry that's happening.

That's a beautiful workbench.

And yay cheesecake.

oh sara, I'm sorry. I don't even know what to say, but that just sounds super stressful for your whole family.

My pool re-opened and I got to swim. WOOT.

I listened to a most excellent Alain de Button podcast. I'm entirely enamoured.

Okey. I have to start folding clothes. Ugh.
