I slept pretty well last night. Another series of dream adventures. I think Ambrose was in one, but we weren’t speaking, just being together. It’s nice to feel like he’s there with me in my dreams.
The moon was hiding behind clouds on my morning walk. It’s getting lighter every day. I’m going to have to move my wake up time back at some point so I can walk while it’s still nice and cool. Well, I plan on starting to run after I get back from South Carolina. A morning run, a walk at lunch, and maybe an after work run. Might still just walk after work, at least for a while. It’s going to get hot soon enough.
My color did not get called today, so I didn’t need to scramble to get time off. Here’s hoping that trend continues tomorrow. I still need to talk to my boss about it; both my calendar and his were chock full today, so I didn’t get a chance.
I had this big plan to get tacos for dinner from Hugo’s Tacos, which is usually in Cambridge on Mondays and Tuesdays. But alas, when I arrived after work and after my walk, there was no taco truck to be found. And the pizza place is closed on Mondays. The only option was the Chinese place and I don’t go there anymore. So I drove home, and had a bit of a cry, because I was really looking forward to tacos and I really didn’t want to cook.
I ended up making some flavored rice and adding in Spam. Delicious, and it didn’t take too long to make. I’ve got a second serving set up for tomorrow or Wednesday. Maybe I’ll try for pizza tomorrow and save the rice for Wednesday.
The weather was beautiful, so I did my staff spinning outside and found out that the mosquitoes are out and about already. They didn’t bug me too badly, but one landed on my foot. I think the staff’s motion kept them away from most of my body. Then I went in and did some more Shoulders & Arms level 1 exercises. I want to build my strength up with these before moving on. I think that my left shoulder/neck issues stems from my having my left shoulder blade kind of hyperextended out of place. I’ve been focusing on keeping it down and back no matter what I’m doing with that arm, and I think the regimen is helping. My neck hasn’t been feeling terrible or tingly today, at least.
I’m on the downhill side now. Two more days of community service. Just two more weeks. And then I can get packed for my trip to South Carolina. I want to bring some of his ashes with me. I’ll need to get a container for that. Something nice, and not too fragile… Maybe a tin. With a double baggie.
I made myself a dishwashing song the other day. It’s helped me keep up with the dishes so far; I’ll see how long that lasts. But I do prefer to have that sink clean. It’s nice. I got my dinner prep dishes done before I ate dinner tonight. Still have the bowl I ate out of to do, but I think I’ll do that after I post this. No time like the present.
