serendipitous journey Posted May 4, 2021 Posted May 4, 2021 Evening! Today saw the essentials done. And, inspired by my most recent round of listening to SWB's "Burnout" lecture, we're taking a week off of all academics. Whew! Tomorrow: kick it off with my 2nd vaccine shot: I'm so glad to be able to get it. Then, other stuff to tackle as I can: Fitness with boys Clean up my RPG character sheet Work on my own campaign for next week's opener; plan this flexibly, and to open with something cohesive, group-building, snappy and dramatic; some sort of decision point with interesting, salient results. Housecleaning. Garden stuff. Bagels for lunch, errand in town (elder wants to get some supplies to make younger's next birthday present) Fitness for me. Dinner: ????? crispy chickpeas/salad/feta bowls, I think. 1 Quote

serendipitous journey Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Evening! Lost a couple of days to post-vaccine ickiness. Don't think I've ever been so happy to be so achy. Since this week is a Total Break from Things Academic, it's been pretty easy going. Good amount of housework today, stuff outdoors, hanging with littles, reading up on my RPG stuff & listening to RPG podcasts & other stuff. This evening: make dinner (souffles, veggies, maybe salad too); we're all watching the second half of "Cars" and having popcorn; settle littles in. Maybe run a round of laundry, think about tomorrow, some exercise or yoga for me. PS -- wishing the seedlings luck!! PPS -- @Critterfixer -- how did the dinner "experiment" go???
