He had to work this afternoon, so we ate dim sum at Hong Kong Tea House, which nourishes body and soul. I figured I'd get busy and take care of some little stuff. First, I had to take Moby outside for a good sunning, he did insist. Hacked back the ivy between the houses. There are stink trees growing up there as well, they're everywhere this year. Neighbor thinks it's because we took one out. Could be.
Moved a small bookcase from the music room closet to the workroom space, and the larger bookcase there into the vacated place, shifted and shelved books.
Tweaked the q-tip holder I made out of a decorative box salvaged from work, finger hole needed to be bigger. Re-hot-glued the butter retention strap. Dyed my hair (still in the process.) Helped other neighbor clear a fallen tree branch into yard waste bin, salvaging the main branch for the grape arbor to be.
addendum:
Seems like a lot, but I do as much at work between cases when we have to shift positioners, as between say a shoulder scope and a hip scope, followed by a hand case. And it's lunchtime so there is no help, or very little.
I took my own pace, and did only as much as I felt like, dammit. Got called off work tomorrow, so I need to plan more tasks.
Julia. Aunt Alma's brother's wife's name was Julia. I called them Aunt Julia and Uncle Al. The one who cooked the catfish I caught, and didn't like children, but liked me anyway.

it took me a long time to figure out that children are people which means i like some and dislike others and i no longer feel bad about the latter.
pc,
I don't like children simply because they are children, but I'll take any particular child on their own merits. I've come to think there is no excuse for being unkind to a child, but I didn't always. They have so little control, at the mercy of their parents, in a confusing world they are very small. They are obnoxious, but it's a defense mechanism, survival.
Still not fond of them, but seeing it that way helps me not want to choke them.
Can't wait to see what color the hair is this time!
You had me running for a pint of ale at "moving bookcases, shifted and shelved books" ...
Cat,
Added above.
Rou,
They were very light bookshelves. And I used to work shelving books, I know all the tricks, can still do a single hand book flip.
(o)
quite amazing
