And it didn’t help that I stayed up until midnight. For no apparent reason but then anyone who knows me could have predicted that I would go to bed extra late because I needed to leave the house extra early.
I wrote morning pages, got dressed and brushed my teeth and left the house for my biannual check-up. That took just a few minutes except I was asked to give another urine sample and to make a new appointment for that.
I walked back home by way of the supermarket where I buy my yogurt and then finally sat down to eat breakfast. Then I wrote an email to my doctor’s office about the appointment, they told me I didn’t need one and to just come in that afternoon or the week after.
I didn’t want to wait and I definitely didn’t have time that afternoon so I just walked back and tried my luck. This time I walked back by way of the health food store and got pretzels and chocolate.
I did the dishes and folded some laundry and helped make salad and then we had a rather early lunch:

It had turned out to be a bad idea to move grocery shopping to today because we were lacking some key ingredients for most of the things my husband wanted to cook. But this was very good.
I read a bit while eating chocolate and played Genshin and then it was time to start teaching. I had two video lessons first, then I waited for a student who had texted me that she would be a little late. And then that she would be even later.
She arrived 35 minutes late, all flustered, because she had someone work on her furnace and it had taken way longer than anticipated. We decided to reschedule the lesson to next week.
Meanwhile I had found out that the retreat I will be attending in April is supposed to start with lunch on Thursday and end after lunch on Sunday which means I should cancel the train tickets I already got because those would mean I’d be 2 1/2 hours late on Thursday and 2 hours early on Sunday. Apparently there should have been a confirmation email giving us the time but I never got one. I am registered, though, I got information via mail and am on the email list.
After teaching I quickly ate dinner before it was time for the last Zoom call for the course. I was so tired that I had a hard time focusing.
Then I started writing this post, talked briefly with the rest of the family, made a list for today and went to bed before midnight this time.
Today will be another ‚doing all the things‘-day and then there will be carnival break.
