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.

Sauces!

Image
 Homemade sauces sound YUMMY. Also a bit of work but the flavor / nutrition boost better be worth it. 6:xx hours of sleep. I woke up after 4+, ate breakfast, and went back to bed. I am still crabby and the exercise buzz from yesterday has turned into aches I am feeding NSAIDs to.  Unclear whether the sole elevator is working, whether the second one is getting tested. I just walked the stairs. It would be good for me to do that every day but it's slow and stressful. Happy heat wave Tuesday.

Trying to get motivated to take compost out and tackle some more home decor. But it's the solstice and there is legit quest for turning points.

Tuxedo cat attempts to offer home decor advice

Image
Not even trying to analyze how much of this drama queen's chronicle is pure AI.  5:56 hours of sleep. TWO DAYS of socializing and the full menu of PT exercises. Ibuprofen and a banana at 3:30 am helped A LOT about muscle cramps and sleep.

White beans, antiinflammatory

Image
 This sounds like a fun recipe. It also sounds like a recipe that one should make when there are other people around to eat it or else one will be eating bean salad all week, not necessarily a bad thing in hot weather. 5:56 hours of sleep. I have been increasing the number of reps I do even when I do not add resistance. After Yesterda's agony, body did REALLY well for excursion to Juneteenth. Excursion was hot and full of things on lumpy ground to trip over but NICE family space. Late lunch with PICS mentee and honest conversation about life. Sweet

Austrian Famer and the power of observation, permaculture, never mind official policy

Image
 Can anyone tell that ecological restoration in almost any form is extremely calming? 5:18 hours of sleep. I went to bed to late but was able both to go back to bed and to wake up in time for Zoom commitments. Amazon order arrived before the Zoom timeline so I could put away my icecream. TOTAL grocery bliss about two items: --some archway molasses cookies bought on a whim because I did not want to spend $20 on ginger snaps. --TOTAL BANANA BLISS: A nice clump that will last all week. Ther PERFECT level of greenness and the perfect size. That is my level of bliss. Also relevant: I needed to pick up prescriptions. I was too sore and intimated about even the pathetic amount of walking needed. SO, take one bus, go to bank. Ride second bus back one stop. Go to CVS and then lather rinse repeat. Wait for the48 so I did not even have to walk anywhere to catch the 8. Embarrassing to feel so fragile and achy. But at least I carried home another gallon of distilled water. Tomorrow I will go to...
