Signs in / with the oatmeal

Close to six hours of sleep.

There appears to be a time window where if I would just go back to bed after I feed the cat I might easily sleep longer. But if I sit or move too much I am awake and aware of being hungry.

Today I made instant oatmeal with dried apricots instead of just raisins. Does that explain revelations?

Such light as comes to me comes partly from a memorial I found--because I had the right tools and knowhow and because over the #$#@ of years I have been dealing with the collision of vision loss and technology the FJ website has become more accessible, ie Quakers are publishing truth in the media of the day. The divorced first wife mentioned in the memorial was a Quaker touchstones before it became logistically possible for RantWoman even to consider attending Meeting. The divorce is because Quaker touchstone fell in love with a woman who was connected with some AMAZING moments of meeting process..

Other signs of hope:

--There is a sign on my door saying dose 2 of COVID vaccine will come to me instead of me having to go to it.

--This week's Bach cello suite is making me very happy and much better centered

--I am a kickass cook and love my new at Christmas mixer. I made peanut butter chocolate chip cut the sugar in half and use half whole wheat flour cookies. They ROCK.

--I found my beeswax lip balm. That seems most consistently to be helpful without my lips continually sheeting off layers of skin with other brands

--A phone call nudging me to interact with some resources I need to interact with.

A shopping cart full
of clothing that needs to
move on in the universe

--I lent my laundry room key to neighbors across the hall and then decided i needed to stay home until they brought it back. So in the meantime, I started my rampage about stuff needs to leave the apartment before more stuff comes in. Clothes that have not gotten schlepped to Goodwill will gradually be offered up to neighbor in elevator because at least some will be very useful. Some are rags useless unless one sews or needs emergency bandaging.

--A tweet about reviewing a, cough, fascinating but crucial manual related to pedestrian safety..

This is probably enough today.
