Thursday. . .

So. Thursday. Grey and on-and-off snow showers. Yes, that means I now have a icy driveway with a coating of snow.
I went to bed more or less at my regular time, and got up more or less at my regular time. Tali came to keep me company while I sat with the Happy Lite, and after breakfast, all three of the cats hustled me back to Steve's office, with three very high tails: Oh, Good! Mom's gonna work!
Breakfast was -- all together now! -- oatmeal with peanut butter and chocolate chips (Note to self: get more peanut/almond butter). Lunch was chicken in butter masala over rice with grapes on the side (Note to self: get more chicken breasts). Before anybody gets too excited the sauce came out of a jar, but I quick defrosted the chicken and browned it, so, yay! Cooking.
I had to name a ship and a Scout Archivist team, so I only wrote about 700 new words, though part of that was:
"Is that humor?"
Jen Sin thought for a moment. "Do you know? I'm not certain."
Next up is putting away dishes, washing pots 'n pans and writing some notes for the next section of Agent of Change. I'll post a link when it's up.
How's everybody doing today?
