Just a Sunday note

Ok, Sunday, bring it on.

I ended up doing a pile of house chores yesterday, and it felt good to have things clean and orderly. Granted, they won't stay that way (my house is not a museum), but it was good. And I got the stretch of quiet time I needed, too. I read, I watched FoodTV, and I did some computer work that was necessary. All good things. I even managed to make bread.

So what does today look like? Well, I am hopeful it won't rain. The weather was lovely yesterday until about 3pm, and then it was a deluge. What a surprise. This has been a pretty darn wet summer. I need to spray neem oil on my plants, in hopes of keeping the bugs at bay. I don't know if anything is going to come of my garden, other than the few cherry tomatoes I've picked. The plants are lovely, but the fruits are few. I need to put the weekly dose of chlorine in the pool, even though the forecast is for a cooler week, and we won't be getting in it. I just want to avoid scummy yuck. And I have my writing group today; it's my turn to dictate a poem for the group, and to launch the first prompt. So that will be fun.

I'll start the day with coffee, shower, and church. Seems like a good way to get things going. I'll try to avoid doom-scrolling. I will make an attempt at keeping myself from fretting over the climate crisis, the state of US stupidity in politics, and so on. I won't ever be bright and shiny, but sane is a goal.

Have a good day,

C
