That was the big highlight of the day, I went to bed super early, slept well and had more energy, funny enough.
Still, I decided not to plan too much stuff for the day. It still was more than I got done in the end, I guess I just have to resign myself to the fact that I’m always overplanning.
I did spend the morning knitting, mostly, and also took a shower, cut my toenails and my hair. My husband helped me with the parts I couldn’t reach. Having hair that’s almost cut straight and not all straggly ends is a relief. One thing I found extremely funny was that my husband asked about the loose strands around my face. „So, are you going to cut those off too? Because they look disheveled.“ This is what he meant:
I mean, that’s where my hair is the curliest and I had to explain that I’m not cutting off hair that is just starting to grow in. I did cut off maybe 10 centimeters (4 „) in total.
I also had planned to dye my eyebrows and lashes but realized I actually shouldn’t use isopropyl alcohol around my eyes and will need to buy eye makeup remover first.
Lunch was burgers, potatoes, peas and carrots, and again I was completely certain I had taken a picture but can’t find it anywhere. I should take better care in the future.
The boy showed up after my husband and I had finished lunch, he ate and we talked and then we did the dishes together. I had a Zoom meeting with a bunch of writers at 5 and my original plan had been to write in my studio for at least 90 minutes before that but I ended up talking with the boy for so long that I had to rush to get to the meeting in time.
The meeting was extremely enjoyable. It ran a bit over time and so I then rushed back to the kitchen for dinner with my family:
The champagne was a bit sweet for my taste and I don’t think I’ll buy it again in the future. I basically bought the priciest one in the grocery store that was not real champagne and I did remember the brand being good from decades ago but I guess my taste in wine has changed a bit since then.
We watched an episode of ‚Columbo‘ (accidentally skipping the next one but well, they’re episodic so no harm done). We all liked it even if the plot was a bit convoluted. My husband nodded off at one point and then had a hard time following which is understandable.
After that the boy and I talked again for an hour or so, I decided I wanted to watch an episode of C-drama even though it was too late and got myself a bottle of beer. Turned the lights out past midnight and am again very tired.
Dumb move. So I guess I’ll try to do better today.
