Jan. 24th, 2025 02:37 pmToday is my birthday! And I've spent it mostly in bed, either resting or reading. I'm trying to fight off a cold, so have been drinking lots of fluids, eating soup, and sleeping when I feel like it. Not the way I would have chosen to spend my birthday, but a) I don't want to give this to anyone else; and b) I want this to go away as soon as possible.
I did get the final load of laundry done, and it's air-drying now. Only to find that I really do have another load of bedding and towels and socks and suchwhich, if I want to put that together and just get them done. I'm debating. While I don't plan to do laundry every week, I won't be waiting three more months either. 12 loads of laundry is a LOT!!!
I need to do a little bit of shopping this weekend. I need bottled water, more soups, facial tissues, and kitty kibble. If I can easily find cheddar cheese, I'll pick that up, but it's not easy to come by down here. (Mexican food is full of strong flavors in the spices, but they don't care for sharp or strongly-flavored cheeses. On the up side, gouda seems to be pretty easy to find, and it isn't priced as high as in the states, relative to other foods.)
I got my colored pencils organized. I need to organize my markers. I also need to re-organize my earrings because the movers wrapped the stackers in plastic, then put the wrapped stacks in a big box, but didn't mark which end was up. So things are thoroughly discombobulated and need to be cleaned up a bit. (At least each tray's stuff is all separate, even if it isn't properly paired or organized any more.)
I have gotten some more clothing put away, and some clothing and towels and bedding packed to go into storage. Small victories.
