Reviving a Scottish valley

Image
 More ecological renewal to distract myself from --earthquake in Venezuela --wild fires, heat waves, earthquakes and possible volcanic eruptions elsewhere 4:08 hours of sleep. Thankfully it's COOL these days so sleeping is easier. Eating pasta Salad at 9 pm was a better idea than I initially imagined. Or maybe it was the exercise bicycle on top of much hither and thither yesterday. Today not enough exercise but a great focus group about the future of ACB. Now I just have to write up my thoughts. But first,  --MUST do RLDT to-do's --Must get out invites to the after the party party --must read PQAC stuff --must read digital equity stuff. --Hopefully must also make soup. Must Must Must

Bygone Woolworths lunch counter menu items

Image
 Liverwurst sandwiches? Utterly quaint. I do not remember any of these options from the Woolworth's of my childhood. I have also kind of outgrown liverwurst. Too many nitrites, though if offered a sandwish with lettuce and onion and mustard, I could do worse. 5:06 hours of sleep. Up "early" for me and on time for eye appointment but they were running over an hour late. Also doctor I have not seen for awhile was subbing and paying attention to things that have been noted multiple times but that are low level so it is not obvious that anything should be done about them. I have a sense from who else had long delays that there is a certain work slowdown for certain patients

Beans explained

Image
 WHO KNEW: beans prepared improperly can be DANGEROUS. 6:06 hours of sleep. Whole PT regimen. A lot of cleaning: swiffer mopped about half the floor grime. Work STILL needed. Also made black bean omelet for several days. Trying to herd together some thoughts about #USA250. Brain, sentiments all over the place.

Cold beet soup: is this the one with a dash of mustard?

Image
  4:20 hours of sleep. I could have slept longer. Leg cramps. Leg cramps. PT exercises seem to have helped but I got done a lot less than I might have hoped.

Overnight oats X 4

Image
 Tempting enough to TRY! 4:04 hours of sleep. There was the bit about tossing and turning, getting up and finishing the bananas and yogurt and then getting real sleep. I an not sure about nostalgia for previous years of summer travel at the edges of dawn. Nasty leg cramps. I will see if a few rounds on the exercise bike soothes the situation.

Hydrothermal explosion near Old Faithful

Image
 One does not always know how to react to news connected with the Yellowstone supervolcano so we will just leave this here. 6:++ hours of sleep. NO power at bedtime. No fan. No CPAP. I left fan on hoping power would come back overnight. It did. Clock radio suggested about 2:++ hours before I woke up. But after breakfast I went back to bed with 2 more GLORIOUS hours of CPAP time. Also, I did ALL the exercises today, not just the stretches. That helped about cramps but I am still also appreciating ibuprofen. I did a spot of cooking. I could do a bit of laundry and I still have to find a water exercise option.
