Music to buy furniture by

6.5 hours of sleep. 5 plus go back to bed.


I hate missing daylight but my body seems to appreciate sleep and exercise and good music.


No, it did not seem fitting to be trying to buy furniture during the Bach Easter Oratorio. Even if it's in German and I am not trying to do some kind of bilingual follow the lyrics thing, crucifying Jesus while dealing with Amazon just does not seem right. But the Bach cello suite #6 in D major was just the thing and especially performed by a guy who bows with the cello on his shoulder.


I am so excited. I got my stimulus payment and ordered a new bed to replace the one that is 25 years old and lumpy and otherwise difficult to deal with. Now I get to hope the delivery of the new platform and the mattress line up. 


And my admitted student replied to my email. I am thrilled and humbled. Of the 7 applicants I interviewed she and a different person popped to the top of my list. I had to go back and read my report from our interview to remember all the details of why she stood out. I have a sense that it will be fun to walk through the going off to college with her. Her mother died when she was very young and she is just a very engaged focused person.


Next online shopping excursions an exercise bicycle and some new bras.


Oh, and cat seems to appreciate that I just threw out the end of one cat food bag and opened the new one. 


Happy spring.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
