averygoodun42On the plus side, I have mainly avoided doing any kitchen duty today. I did roast the hubbard squash that had been sitting on our ledge for a couple weeks, but even there, I got Geoff to do the hard work of chopping it in half.
On the down side, my avoiding kitchen duty (by doing (almost) all the laundry, go me) means the kitchen is now a pit, and the only food made is the squash.
Geoff's been out all day helping a friend move. I assume that's what he's still doing, anyway (it's been nine hours).
On the up side, I did get another segment done on Niece's Christmas present. On the down side, I broke the skull I made yesterday. I s'pose I could still use it, but I think it gives off bad juju now, which is not what I'm aiming for.
Let's see... is there another upside to end on? Well, besides the fact that I have an entertaining book to read while waiting for the laundry to advance? Um... I organized my closet! And managed to pilfer a full bag's worth of shirts and sweaters that Page will never wear from his drawers without his noticing (and therefore objecting). His clothes plus mine equal a fair amount to charity and consignment shop (where, if they're either rejected or not sold, they end up being given to the needy anyway).
I made a couple of hard decisions with my clothes, but I'm choosing to think of it as making room for the new (and hopefully better). Eventually.
Ah. Just got a call from Geoff, and they're on the last load. He sounds wiped. I imagine he's going to be feeling it for a while. Just in time for another business trip, too.
Ach well. I should go start tackling the kitchen. Just to present a somewhat less down-heartening welcome to the tired and weary soldier, ya know.
Cheers.
