We used Fen’s InstaPot to make dinner this evening! Spaghetti and red sauce. I want to try and make something in it as well this weekend. Maybe a roast or a soup!

1 New Book Added to My Library
My dear DW sent me a book! A gorgeous, gilt paged, leaped bound hardcover copy of “A History of Magic, Witchcraft, and the Occult”. I am going to read it slowly, savor it rather than devour it.

2 New Blazers Acquired
So J came over today and we went a-Goodwilling, as one is inclined to do when they need new clothes and only have about fifty bucks to spare.

1 Exhausted Theodora
I am so tired. I’ve been awake since… seven? Or so. I was up late chatting with a friend who’s grandfather passed yesterday.

So… apparently the fact that I associate colors/sensations/music with people is outside the norm. I was talking about it with Gwendolyn and J this evening.

5 Hours Overslept
I got up at six a.m. to feed Spock, as per my usual. However, I slept terribly last night and decided to go back to bed. I slept until 11a.m. I guess I needed it.

4 Cookies Left
2 Bowls of Soup Eaten
1 New Necklace Made
So, while J and I were driving towards picking up pizza for Bill6, since he doesn’t do fifteen bean soup, we almost got into an accident as some pair of shmucks cut me off and nearly knocked my front bumper off in a near-miss sideswipe.
It sucked, but I’m glad we’re both okay and so is Peggy (my car).

45 Minute Nap on Lunch Break
3 Hours of Sleep

1.15 Miles Walked
Reffie and I went to the Van Gogh Experience at The Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg today. I was moved to literal tears, at one point. Not by the images themselves, but by the words. His words; his own struggles and emotions in his own hand.

1 New Project on the Hook
My friend Alex is currently gestating. She’s due sometime in May, I believe. But the baby shower is in about four weeks. So I have that long to make an heirloom, bespelled blanket for the Shiny little one she and her husband are expecting.
