Daily Journal – Day 563: A little better

I woke up from the alarm, already a little tired. Meditated and read and wrote morning pages and worked on the novel for 25 minutes.

I made breakfast and the boy came downstairs and after he left for school I lounged at the kitchen table, wrote some more, finished the current novel („Pandora“ by L. C. Mawson, I really like the series and wanted to finish this novel in preparation for one that will come out today), finally managed to solve my planer-printing problem by drawing rectangles in my bullet journal to help me think through the print layout issue. I think I got it. I’m still not sure if I really want to print the pages out because I could also just use them as a PDF on my iPad like the last time I did this quarterly planning thing.

I really wanted to work some more and read some more and knit some more but instead I went over to the annex to great my husband. He was busy cleaning the sink there and we talked and I installed the new shower head and hose and we talked some more and then I procrastinated before biking over to the hardware store and the grocery store.

Came back home only to find that we had run out of: flour, parmesan, cucumber, clarified butter and almost out of rice which made me almost resigned to venture out again to get those things but then I realized that we probably wouldn’t need any of those things until next week and if we run out of parmesan it might be okay to use grated cheddar in a pinch.

Lunch was very tasty again, the boy ate with his grandmother:

It’s interesting how often we eat vegetarian when the boy’s not eating with us. Weird.

I did the dishes right away, sat a little longer and read and then I got the podcast ready for publication and started uploading the video. I’ll publish the next episode today after lunch.

Then I taught my students, wrote a few emails, made the boy practice piano for a bit, did some bodyweight training and went to bed on time for once.

Today there will be some cleaning and shuffling stuff around for the impending painting. All three of us will go out for lunch for Greek food, then I will teach all the students and then it will be the weekend! With added cleaning and moving furniture and painting and more cleaning. Fun!
