Still no gingerbread cookies
Came home from work exhausted but napped as soon as I got in the door. Woken up by Mom coming home from the doctor (she took today off because it's her birthday tomorrow, but she took advantage of already having the day to get an appointment in) and now I have enough energy to start working on my "to do" list for today. Probably not seeing Thor: ( Read more... ) -
And there went Halloween
The good news is I got a bunch of photos sorted and cropped -- and got my WS_FTP fixed (turns out it probably fixed itself with the next time I turned on the computer, and the tech support guy just reset my password for nothing) and uploaded the pics worth sharing ( Read more... ) -
Winding down October
So I had my birthday, it was fun, I enjoyed the hell out of having a couple of days off work not to be spent heading out to visit Dad, and I could have done with another night because I ran out of time to make the planned batch of gingerbread cookies ( Read more... ) -
Long weekend commencing!
Okay, after getting out of work two and a half hours late (on a week when I won't be getting any overtime pay) I got lunch and made my grocery run on the way home. If I can just manage to leave the house and hit the gym (and maybe do one or two other things from the "to do" list) that would be awesome ( Read more... ) -
Something
I need to transfer something like six weeks' worth of photos from my phone to my desktop -- and update my backups -- and write a journal entry about all those pictures ( Read more... ) -
One more shift
Second day in a row of coming home and collapsing into sleep. Catching up on sleep is good, being well-rested before the most grueling shift of the week is good, but I'd vaguely hoped to get something accomplished today to make up for what I won't have the energy to deal with tomorrow.
Ah, well. If I can get the gym session or the grocery run ( Read more... ) -
Week of postponement
Spent Sunday and Monday catching up on sleep (and reading), so Tuesday was excessively busy and I didn't get to the kitchen stuff (dishes, clearing out the recyclables and baking) until yesterday evening. (Happily, I went to the gym on the way home from work and then got a five-hour nap in the afternoon. Not as much sleep as I needed, though.) ( Read more... ) -
Failing to sleep
The sugar cookies taste suspiciously like shortbread. I like shortbread, but it wasn't what I was aiming for. Need to compare shortbread recipes to the one I used and consider the matter. Also need more cookie practice ( Read more... ) -
October coming in with gloomy grey weather
And now it's October, time to decorate for Halloween, but I haven't yet. And I'm not doing so today, since I'm going to visit Dad. Happily, I'm packed and ready to go (especially since I decided to blow off most of my computerage, and did most of the rest via smartphone), but I'm going to type up a journal entry while getting some coats of nail ( Read more... )
