Today was mellow
May. 13th, 2007 11:01 pmToday was the good kind of quiet. I played hooky from church and drifted. Spent some time on the phone---yay, phone! Kat is going to call me in the morning so I can take her out for a Belated Mother's Day lunch, S and I chatted for a bit before she went over to her in-laws for dinner, and I spent about an hour and a half on the phone with B, which was great.
She and I have come up with Plan B. (Plan A fizzled when work wouldn't give me Saturdays off.) Better a little time than no time, so we're going to try to get together Friday mornings to assist each other with domestic chores. Next Friday, I'm going to help her take up water-damaged carpeting in her middle bedroom. Either this Wednesday evening or the following one, she's going to drop by after work and do a walk through so we can try to prioritize the first thing to do around here.
I enjoyed the luxury of a late afternoon nap, which I rarely get to do, and later did that evil sinkful of dishes I'd been putting off. (I have to replace those two divided pieces of Rubbermaid, which I couldn't even bear to take the lids off of.) While that was in progress, I boiled the water for tortellini. I fixed most of a bag of cheese tortellini, which got me five new Rubbermaid containers full, topped with canned sauce, and enough over for dinner. That will give me something to grab and run with to work as well as lunches or fast meals on my days off. And I'm paid again on Friday, so I'm set.
Have also done a little fic-tinkering. Posted a drabble for Jericho over on ff.net, fixed the obvious typos on Reconciliation, and done a little pecking on and a lot of thinking about Nature Versus Nurture, an SPN fic that's so AU that canon is irrelevant. (
starhawk2005 knows which one I mean!)
It's grumbling thunder outside, and has been all evening, but no rain as yet.
