7 am
Actually
feeling a bit crappy this morning. We went to a Mexican rest. last night for supper (K) and margaritas (both
of us) well and I also had chips and salsa. It was all not such a good idea and
I was uncomfortable all night. I’ve been doing fine with an occasional beer so
I should stick with that. Then I got up this morning and looked out the window
to see an escaped bunny. And I had a sneaking suspicion last night after I fed
them and came back in that I may have left a cage open. It would have taken 10
seconds to recheck, but no, too lazy after that margarita. So I paid this
morning. She was a bit of a pain to catch, but I brought out a dish of food and
she actually came to that, something that usually does not work. Worked this
time and I was very glad. I think she was actually glad to be back in her cage,
too.
Yesterday
I washed bags!! WOO HOO. Still it is nice not to have that huge mess of them by
the sink. And I did a bit of spinning of the purple angora. For the final 2
skeins I decided to add in a touch of yellow, we’ll see how those end up. And I
finished plucking Flora, and started in on Bart. His coat is not that long, but
it is loose, so I will just take off the longest bits. Then I need to move on
to Daffodil and Amber. I got an email yesterday from someone who bought a bunny
2 ½ years ago and he is wheezing. Darn. Not too much she’ll be able to do about
that. I hope it stays low level and ok for a while.
Around 3
yesterday I took off on the bike, about 15 miles and reasonably hilly at least in
the middle there. I got a sub at Subway, then went over to where someone was
running a bike clinic through Transition Towns. He talked a bit about changing
tubes and lubing and I did learn a few things so that was good (one can patch a
flat without actually taking off the wheel, who’da thunk that??). Then he
showed us how to make a bike trailer out of bamboo. And we cut some of his bamboo
that the others (a bunch of interns from a local CSA farm) will take back and
lash together to make the beginnings of 2 carts. They need to come up with
wheels and then in 2 weeks there will be another session in which they will
finish the carts. When I left I asked if I could come back and get bamboo for a
cart and he said I could. So gotta work on that. And how to find a couple of
wheels.
There was
talk about going for a bike ride this morning with J. I don’t know what has
come of that. I guess K emailed and is waiting to hear back. I sure wish people
we capable of planning things ahead, that works better for me. Speaking of
planning ahead… I need to get things ready for the class I will teach NEXT
week, and I MUST start tackling things to get ready for work which will start
in about 3 weeks…. AAUUGG!
Time to
eat. What I do not know. Time to feed buns. Time to get dressed. I did do
stretches, and I did them yesterday, too. My back has been hurting which it
really has not done since the biking craze started, so I must get back to
stretches. Amazing how stiff my legs were. Strong maybe, but also stiff. I wish
Rob would send his mailing address so I could send him his i-phone holder. Today
what I really need to do is some major cleaning in the house. Or not really
cleaning, more putting things away. Like the tent we used in Maine and all the
other camping gear that I got out to organize. I should make a trip to the
rental house to put some stuff away in
the garage for storage and to get stuff that I’ll need for the class.
