In which I’ve checked some boxes on my to-do list.

Slept a solid 8 hours… in a row! (Lately I’ve been sleeping in shifts. Bit annoying, really. Had to work Saturday’s 11-7 shift on a mere four hours sleep, because I woke up at five in the morning and never got back to sleep.)

Woke up and meditated.

Made the bed, started the dishes, brewed myself a latte, journaled a bit. Fountain pens! Washi tape!

Looked at flights for this year’s Amma retreat and rescheduled my hotel dates. Listed the couch and the air conditioner for sale on Craigslist. Cleaned the toilet bowl. Gave himself a basket of laundry to do and a short grocery list to shop.

Made and ate a cheesy, saucy bean tostada.

(It was delicious.)

Today is a rainy, green and cool and overcast and lovely, day. Birdsong. Open windows, breeze.

I’ve got some garbanzos cooking for Moroccan stew for dinner!

Currently re-watching an episode of Firefly again because it’s good and it’s there. Plan to read later; most of the way through Doctorow’s latest and just bought a Delaney. Also have a trilogy sitting on my Kindle I bought a while ago still needing to be read, too.

Okay, off to chop veggies for the stew!

UPDATE: Stew!

Really delicious! I used freshly ground cumin, and added a bit of a few extra spices (ginger, cinnamon, paprika, and black pepper) because WHY NOT.
