Happy Saturday, people. We made it through the night without any cat purging. We’ve got some sunny skies, and Mom must be optimistic about the day’s overall weather because there’s a load of Brian’s work clothes in the wash. The Roomba is on the loose. Chaucer, given up on trying to lure Knickknack into a game of tag, is dancing around the vacuum, trying to entice it into playing with him.
I forced myself to play outside yesterday. Knowing that if I sat down with the paints I wouldn’t move, I started with some poi. I’m happy to say there were no fire ant-related incidents to report. I worked on a couple of moves I’ve been trying to work into combos. However, I really need to practice them on their own a bit more, as they’re very sloppy right now.
I also worked on a painting. Sometimes, the best self-care is getting a good buzz and doing something mindless. For me, that’s painting bricks. So I painted bricks.
Today is grocery day. We’ve got a couple of hours before we leave, because we can’t go until the second load of wash is hanging on the line. I’ve got plenty of time to get dressed, finish a coffee, and become a human. Oh joy.
