Wednesday on the move

[rolanni]

Wednesday. I was not prepared to find 6 inches of snow on the ground when I got up this morning. I had been informed that there would be snow showers today, but that last night would be "clear."

So, anyway, got up to find 6 inches of "clear" on the ground, and had literally just gotten my boots on to go out to deal with the steps and making a path to the garage so Tali could keep her appointment with her doctor, when the plowguy swooped in and started in to work.

Best. Plow. Guy. EVER.

Relieved of snow-clearing duties, I had a cup of tea, some cottage cheese, and grapes. Then I gathered Tali up from her bird-watching post and bore her, not without complaint, to her appointment. Tali is pronounced healthy and beautiful. She Officially Weighs 13.0 pounds, and she has had her 3-year distemper shot. Her toes were also cut off, all the way around.

For those interested, it is still snowing, very lightly, and is expected to stop around 11:30.

My business today is to finalize my Remarks and choose passages to read. I will probably make broccoli potato soup for lunch, and use my new! food processor to make a batch of hummus. I have two lemons, though I'm not sure I possess a juicer, anymore. I had a glass one from my grandmother, but I haven't seen it in a while. Of course, I haven't needed to juice anything in a while.

Tomorrow will begin another 5-day sprint on the WIP, taking beta reader comments into account. I think I have chicken breasts in the freezer. Might be I should bake one or two so that I'll have easy lunches to draw on. There's a plan.

Upon arriving home, and being freed from The Cage, Tali relieved her feelings by smacking Rook in the head several times, and then having a mouthful or two of dry food to replace the resources depleted during Her Ordeal.

I made myself a cup of hot chocolate, and considered the question of whether or not I'm going to try to install my blindster today. If it works, I can order in three more and there's the sliders dressed.

Remarks first.

How's everybody doing?

Here is Tali, post-Ordeal:

Made hummus. Had to check the interwebs again to figure out how to make it do, since just sliding the switch to "puree" did not evoke the desired motivation. Turns out you need to press the handle after deciding between "chop" and "puree".

Despite which, much the easiest way to make hummus so far discovered by this household. I did not find the old glass juicer; I'm of the opinion it left the household sometime back (Note to self: buy juicer), but the lemons were easy enough to squeeze by hand.

Having now accomplished an Accomplishment -- Remarks.
