Artists, writers and their cats

 Because ONE OF THESE DAYS my apartment will be clean and sane enough for a cat of my very own 3:32 hours of sleep. Speaking of going to bed too late, waking up too early, and being afraid to go back to bed because of appointment. Dishes got washed.  I got a shower. I did part of my exercises. PARTY

20 high protein plant foods

I already eat a lot of these and it's too hot to think about too much cooking complexity.  8:24 hours of sleep followed by 2 hours of "CLutter Support" HELP.  I needed the sleep and the help and now we have a plan. And it is a light day for PT And I have not offered to lend out siblings in a few days. It's historically early in the year for Seattle temps to hit 90 but here we are.

 Speaking of green eyes...fascinating. 4:32 hours of sleep. And awake so early I got through MOST of laundry before the sun got hot and the glare got so strong it was hard to read the washing machine dial. Party

 Cool trick: Soak beans in salted water so they soften faster then drain the brine before next steps 4:54 hours of sleep. I have not been very far outside in days and I still am not going anywhere tomorrow. Things that get in the way of sleep. GRIEF! Tricks to help nostalgia for sleeping in a recliner chair on the deck of a Scandinavian ferry even if one's body would not tolerate that.

GREEN EYES

This video is fun because there are two different mechanisms driving the prevalence of green eyes, functions associated wtih vitamin D synthesis in the parts of Northern Europe where green eyes are more common and on the other hand social selection in Central Europe all the way to Turkey and the Punjab   6:00 hours of sleep. The resistance bands I ordered came but they are going to have to air out because otherwise there are going to be latex allergy issues. Cough is still very hacky.

The Navaho! Migration. DNA

 This fascinating meander through the geography and history of different DNA and linguistic patterns is one reason I did not go to bed at anything like a reasonable hour. Other than that, a recent Windows update is giving my fave accessibility tools hiccups. MLEAH. And I miss 9 pm phone calls with Mom. Double MLEAH 4 ish hours of sleep. We will not discuss from when to when. I am still exhausted and congested in my chest. MLEAH.
