Sunday evening DLJ and I went out to dinner. Alone. A couple. Mom and my Aunt watched the Kidlet at home while we went to the Cheesecake Factory, DLJ’s choice. It was kinda strange. Familiar, but strange. I had a good time. I used to think when parents went out and then instead of enjoying [...]
The busy Mondays! Groceries, gotta go back to a store to return some things, drug store, gotta make beads for a customer (and if I run out of one type of glass in the process, gotta go get one more rod of it in Portland, tomorrow (my I do love living within 15 miles or [...]
So in 2004, somewhere, I came across a recipe called Dale Chihuly’s Boathouse Pasta Sauce. I knew who he was in 2004, but barely, I was just about to take my first lampworking class ever. I printed it out, made the recipe, and it was darn good! Tasty! Then I promptly lost it. I even [...]
It’s supposed to get very warm today, and I have done all my “hot” tasks already, before 1 pm! I made a bunch of strawberry jam today, using the pressure canner, from a flat of berries I bought at a farm a few miles away. There are still plenty of berries left for ice cream, [...]
If the calendar says the massage appt. is at 1:30, don’t go at 11:30 and sit around waiting. I got to read up on my magazines for a about 15 min till I realized my mistake…I will go back in an hour to get my massage at the correct time. Tomorrow I am meeting up [...]
It is a slow day today, but I am getting things done. Some computer work, a new catloaf for Anais to eat, lunch for me. I will make some beads this afternoon and go for a walk for exercise. And do a load of light laundry. DLJ has a user’s group tonight in downtown Portland [...]
I just sat out in the sun with a big lime popsicle. Real lime, not fake lime. Awesome.
The phone rang really early this morning, and we didn’t get back to sleep until after DLJ’s alarm went off. So we slept after that.:P He’s eating breakfast and it is nice to have him around a little later than usual. By the time the garbage truck comes around, he is usually gone. Another busy [...]
I just cleaned the dishes, emptied the dishwasher, started to refill it, scrubbed the counters down and fed Anais. If I have time later today I will mop the floor in there. Hopefully I will also sort the recycling and clean off the dining room table. My roof now is covered in plywood and tar [...]
It feels like a Friday to me, even though it’s only Thursday. I am not sure why. It will be time to go down to the studio soon, once World Have Your Say is done on NPR. It’s a good program, but listening to a bunch of people argue isn’t my cuppa while at the [...]
