Mar. 7th, 2013 04:17 amThings That I (Somehow, Barely) Accomplished Today:
-sewed a (new, otherwise awesome) bra that was starting to come apart near the clasps
-made a huge pot of curried chickpeas with jasmine rice*
-mailed a package at the PO
-went and paid a bill
-forced Annie to submit school assignments and put away clean laundry
-bare minimum, bs schooling of other kids...put Elise on Starfall, set her and Jake in front of the Neil Gaiman episode of Arthur to see it for the first time, talked to everyone about all the sharks off the coast and showed them the aerial video (we were JUST at the beach...), printed coloring pages and helped Aaron set up a SoundCloud for his FL Studio music.
-grocery shopped, alone, in slow motion
-acquired Pollo Tropical for dinner
-made everyone brush their teeth, locked doors and set alarm
-read to Jake and Elise before bed
-resized, uploaded and started making an entry out of some pictures**
-made a to-do list for tomorrow
THAT'S IT.
I also managed to call, skype and text my husband and call and text my sister about how weirdly terribly sad I feel, lounge around in my bed with the doors open listening to the wind chimes, wonder idly what the fuck is wrong with me, hit snooze like 5 times in a haze in the middle of the afternoon (from napping) with no idea what day or time of day it was for a minute every time I was re-roused, and help Ananda and Aaron finish the night off right by watching Vlogbrother videos with them while we passed salted caramel gelato back and forth for an hour.
Hopefully I am just really, really sleep deprived, and will feel better soon. Yesterday was pretty good! Maybe it's PMS, maybe it's diet changes, maybe it's whatever autoimmune problem I may or may not have, blah blah blah...
*these last couple of batches are incredible. I'm sauteeing diced onion, poblano pepper and garlic in butter, then adding tons of chickpeas, some chicken broth, canned diced tomatoes, salt, lots of curry powder, coconut milk and lemon juice. They cook for about a half hour and I throw in more of the coconut milk, lemon juice and curry at the end, to taste.
