I'm not sticking to my order of importance for tasks. I guess I am working from both ends instead of linearly on my list.

Now I need to :

take pics and list the things for sale - Done 3
label the storage bins
mop the kitchen/living room - did half
file the next pile of papers in living room

and if that gets done:

hang up clothes in bedroom
fold laundry & put away - did half
vacuum bedroom

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Well, having gorgeous photos collected in one spot is certainly a good place to start, Tom.

Several themes stand out for me: shadows, architectural shapes, and graffiti. Perhaps something like that's a place to start? What do you think of as you're looking for a good shot? Are there thought processes or plans that could be organizing principles? Maybe your neighborhood, excursions, adventures?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I've done nothing much this gorgeous, sunny weekend.

I just made a vagina geode cake for a birthday party, and then discovered that grapefruit juice in margaritas is effin' delightful.

...I did the dishes and changed the bed, showered and put on makeup, so that's something, I suppose...

I'm on my way back to California tonight. Currently I'm in the Cubs bar at O'Hare drinking a Green Line.

sold a folding music stand that did not sell in 2 garage sales. FB marketplace is 3/5 for quick sales for me. LOVING THAT.

Also saw neighbor that I rarely see. Our sons played soccer together, but mac stopped playing and they grew apart as friends and we never meshed as family friends. Anyway, I have had their ladder for about 5 years. I've asked a couple of times before if they'd like it back and they just said "keep it, we know where it is." well I asked again tonight and he was all "oh, you have my ladder?" I guess they forgot where it was. So I returned that and boom, another thing is out of my garage.

I think I am done being productive for the night. Maybe I'll get a few pieces of clothing hung up before I go to bed. Anything is progress, I currently have a giant pile of clothes on the daybed, and another giant pile in front of the closet..

I can file things and list more things for sale the week in the evenings after work.

The status is NOT quo.

Tep, fwiw, I'm super blister-prone, but Feetures running socks changed my life.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Tep, fwiw, I'm super blister-prone, but Feetures running socks changed my life.

Do you wear them with a second pair of socks, or just them?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm listening to an all-hands presentation, which is a lovely way to start off a Monday. It's definitely stuff I should listen to if I want to have an intelligent conversation with my coworkers, but I'm about three seconds from trying to watch Brooklyn 99 instead.

Has anyone heard from Debet to see how she's doing in Hawaii?
