And that was just the first day of many hot days in a row.
I have to say, though, my new fan is really helping, now that I moved it further away from where I sit while teaching, it makes the room feel cooler.
I went to bed so late, it was terrible. I got hyperfocused on playing my video game and kept doing just one more thing over and over.
I did sleep very well, though, more sleep pressure makes for better sleep. Jmpf.
In the morning I was in a bad mood and very slow again, husband keeps having FOMO and I keep resenting it because I don’t have FOMO at all. Also, if I want to travel somewhere or do something I might just do it on my own whereas my husband is the kind of person who’d rather do it with someone else.
In the end we decided to bike to a lake on Sunday and go swimming. Which means I will have to unearth my (new) bathing suit. I lost a little weight since I bought it but it should still be fine. (I am wearing my jeans a size smaller but I think bathing suits are more forgiving.)
I am dreading the whole thing because it will be hot and full of people and loud but I also am looking forward to teating my new bathing shoes and use that bathing suit for the second or third time since I bought it.
I had many plans for yesterday (of course, and yes, the trip to the lake tomorrow is replacing other plans that I had before) but things did not quite go as I wished.
Husband and I talked longer than expected, which was fine, and then he did the dishes instead of me, I started a load of laundry with all the cleaning cloths that had gotten wet under the sink, and walked to the nearby supermarket.
Came back home, unpacked, the boy came back from uni right when lunch was ready and the three of us ate outside together which is a rare event:
I did forget to finish the sweater I worked on the day before but I’m hoping to remember later today.
After lunch I played a bit, my first student canceled, so I hung the laundry up and contemplated the dishes but I didn’t do them. I did eat the bag of coated peanuts I bought and had meant to be my dinner, and some gummy bears, though. Meh.
I dusted the house, talked with my husband some more, taught three more students, briefly talked with my husband some more and went to my online writing meeting with my friend right away.
There I started this post first, then switched to the manuscript. I’m fighting the current scene, it is one that is in book one but needs to be in book two as well, only from a different viewpoint. And I definitely don’t want to repeat every line of dialogue but also all the important bits need to be there.
I did as best as I could while being exhausted and tired.
After that I did the dishes, then drank a beer and ate some extra cheese, made a list for today, played some more and went to bed.
