Feb. 1st, 2016 02:08 pmIt was warm enough yesterday for opening the kitchen window, so I did. It has to be above 60 before I open the living room window, because the thermostat is in the living room. But whatever it was yesterday, it was quite nice.
Last voice lesson yesterday. It wasn't quite as successful as last week's, but it was a passably good way to end. After that I came home and actually wrote down The List, and tackled some of it. Due to the nature of lists, five or six things came off the top and seven or eight things got added to the bottom, but at least the dishes got done, two pounds of apricots got roasted, the pants got hemmed (twice, because I failed to pay adequate attention the first time and sewed the cuff to the pants leg in unhelpful ways), and the fridge lost a couple of minor biological experiments.
Next time I roast two pounds of apricots, I think I'll do something else with them afterward. Turns out I have puff pastry hanging around in the freezer, so maybe there's turnovers in them there hills. Not good for me, though. Roasted apricots and plain yogurt is about where it's at right now, and the yogurt is an indulgence because the only nonfat yogurt I can stand is skyr, which is expensive.
At least I got my taxes done on Friday night, and am getting the usual chunk of change back. And I can stop remembering that I haven't done my taxes yet. Now if I could stop flinging money all over the place, that would be good too. I should be able to stop for a while, since I can't think of anything I either desperately need right now, or desperately want and can't wait until April for. (Except lunch, which falls under both categories. Getting my teeth cleaned this morning meant I didn't bother with breakfast.)
