I used to say this about Tuesdays when I was working in publishing. I'm not sure why, but it came back to me today as I was scurrying around trying to think of something to post about. I know, it's early, and I could wait until the afternoon is over and supper is cooked and hope that something mildly interesting will happen between now and then, but I don't want to take the chance. So without further ado, I give you my list for Tuesday.
- Lice update: No more live bugs, thank god. A few nits, all clear so far.
- With apologies to Maggie Mason: Not what I had for lunch, just that I made myself lunch. This is one of the things I imagined doing when I first quit my office job, so in light of yesterday's post, I decided to make myself lunch today instead of having leftovers or a sandwich. No big deal, just a little chicken with some vegetables and rice. Still and all, I felt pampered, like I was taking care of myself.
- I'm planning a field trip. One of the things I wanted to do during NaBloPoMo was take my laptop out to lunch and post from a public place. I know that everyone and their dog wags their laptop around, but I really don't – at least not yet. Stay tuned.
- Last year we received only a smattering of Christmas cards from our far-flung friends. Do I have to send Christmas cards this year? Is there some more creative way to say Happy Holidays (and don't tell me email, cannot send holiday email)?!
- Here are some things I did not do today: trim the tea rose bushes that are taking over the sidewalk, rake leaves, sweep leaves off the deck, vacuum.
What did you do today?

Let's see. I just finished teaching two classes and have an hour break until my next one. Love having a laptop to plug in during my few and far between short chunks of time.
ReplyDeleteI did a load of laundry.
Went to Michaels to buy pens that will write on glass.
Graded a few papers and read 75 pages of Hans Brinker.
That's all so far...it's still early.
I've been reading through your entries and all I can say is, Yaaay! A wonderful, new (to me) blog!
ReplyDeleteLet see--I've pretty much spent the day on the couch with my sick four year old, watching PBS Kids. Oh--and I put a coat over his pajamas and took him to the library so I could return some DVDs (god forbid I pay $1 a day, per DVD, in overdue fines).
Thanks, Karen. Thanks for stopping by. I hope your little one feels better soon.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that outrageous overdue fee on dvds a huge library scam?!
I'm enjoying your blog too.
