I'm at the office, although I feel like dirt, so I'm going to leave after lunch and work from home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Today is my day to do nothing! I haven't gotten dressed or off the couch yet! I should do some laundry, and maybe will go through some clothes to get rid of stuff, but maybe not!

Every other day this vacation has had a good mix of doing stuff and doing nothing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds so nice! I need to learn how to mix my doing stuff and doing nothing better, I tend to be all or nothing with both

TCG went back to work today, but they're sending. Him home early because the roads are so bad.

So are you actually building the things or inventorying the pieces or what, msbelle? I have no practical reason to ask this, I'm just curious.

I was so achey and tired, and so also not-much-stuff-to-do, so I asked and went home a half hour early. Now I'm achey, but I'm at home achey, to there's that.

Mom fell a couple days ago and finally went to the emergency room today. She has a broken kneecap. Any ~ma you can spare would be appreciated.

Oh no, sj. Healing vibes to her!

I'm doing laundry and went through some clothes and got rid of some stuff, including offering three sweaters to my mother, so I've even accomplished something today! At some point I have to take out the trash, but it is horrible out there.

She has a brace for now and has to book a follow up with an orthopedic. She can't put any weight on it.

Yeowch! I hope she heals quickly, sj.

I'm off until 1/2. Today I ran some errands, made compost tea for the garden bed, and started laundry. It's in the 70s, so my windows are open. Figure I should enjoy that while I can.
