3/31: dropping
...a big mailing of pamphlets (40-ish envelopes) into the post office blue box this morning.
3/30: a sweet hour
...or so this morning. I was drinking coffee and reading. One cat was in my lap, one was in a cat-bed on a side-table next to my chair, one was on my footrest, and one was on the chair opposite mine. We were quiet, content, and cozy. As I read and they dozed, I finished The Ellsworth Assortment series by Christina Dudley. It ended with a celebration of family, and that felt fitting because the cats and I were having our own sort of celebration too.
3/28: closely reading
...translations a friend had sent me, one a passage from Tacitus, another a passage from Thucydides.
3/27: cleaning
...the outside of the big windows in our main room. It's something that Chris usually does, but I figured I could do it too. So I did.
3/26: medicinal gin
I'm trying not to drink much alcohol these days, substituting Shirley Temples and other mocktail (not a word I like) concoctions, but today my arthritis was especially bad, and Chris suggested that I try just a tablespoon of gin, since it often helps. And it did, even just a tablespoon.
3/25: looking through
...lingering copies of past pamphlets and deciding which ones to send to someone as examples of my work. It's another thing that should have been done months ago, but at least it's done now. I'm too tired to get them ready to mail tonight, but they'll be ready for me (and I'll be ready for them) tomorrow.
3/24: packaging
...the complimentary copies that I received of intervals of so that I can get them in the mail to friends. I'm in a should-have-done-this-months-ago situation, but better late than never.
