And I’m loving it but I’m also seeing pattern of a packed day followed by a slow one. I’ll watch this further. Also, no, we do not celebrate Valentine’s day in our household.
I went to bed half an hour too late because I talked with the boy and he took a shower at my bedtime. I did sleep well, though and was not feeling super exhausted or tired so I guess it was okay.
I did my complete morning routine and even managed to write some somewhat satisfying new words even though I had felt thoroughly stuck just the night before. Oh, and my blood pressure is still normal, hurray!
My husband and I ate breakfast together and talked and this time the conversation was rather nice and interesting. We also tried to get started with the rest of the day a little earlier but failed because the wood stove took eons to heat the water for the third pot of tea. (We brew three pots of tea every morning. My husband’s black tea, my black tea and my pot of chamomile.)
In between my husband did the breakfast dishes and then I tried my new test contacts and went walking/running:
I’m really liking the lenses even though they mean I see everything a little blurry. The left one is bifocal, the right one is not and the bifocal one is in the eye that has cataracts, so let’s say, they’re not ideal for reading but they’re good enough to run in the woods and read things on my phone both. Not at the same time, obviously.
I came back home to a pretty stressed husband. I had been gone for half an hour but he turned back around after only running for a few minutes because he was so pressed for time. I had offered cooking lunch but he thought making tagliatelle with two different sauces would be beyond me. Ahem.
Anyway, we did eat on time, lunch was very tasty and the boy even came downstairs in time:
After that I took a break and talked with the boy for too long, then had to hurry to do the dishes, take a shower and start cleaning before my first student of the day. Between my two students I managed to vacuum the old part of the house, after the second student I was too late to finish cleaning but the boy and I did bodyweight training.
We also tried troubleshooting the mesh router situation throughout the house which meant I was really late for the Zoom-thing I wanted to attend and ended up watching the call from the kitchen table while eating. Later I moved myself to my studio for the rest of the call, then started writing this post, finally met my husband again, who had taught non-stop all afternoon, did Duolingo and such, watched some C-drama while spinning and crocheting and went to bed.
And it looks like there won’t be time for any Saturday slump today, so let’s go!
