liralenI dunno. I know Crash calls me insane on days like today, but... some of these things just had to get done and the fact that the piled on top of each other for day was just.... I dunno. Conflaguration? Serendipity? Do dah? Uhm... right...
Finish cleaning the house for the cleaners
help make sure guest room is good for in-laws
get the *@$! out of the house
find breakfast somewhere
mammogram (damn that hurts) (but it's gooooood for me!)
allergy shots
lunch
mail two boxes of books back to their owner
buy 3 mailing tubes for paintings
package paintings (where the @$*&! did I put those addresses?)
mail paintings (sorry,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
agrimony, for missing your b-day by THAT much), one to Japan...
buy Hatful of Sky to read with Jet
buy lasagna makings, cinnamon rolls, garlic bread
make lasagna
go to Odysessy of the Mind JUDGE training (#@$!) from 6-9
NOT GET SICK
Paint
John went and pulled Jet out of school a little early to take him to get John's parents from the airport. They'll be doing the kid sitting tonight, as John's got a church meeting, and I have the training... the school needed a volunteer, and so I'm helping out.
I also got a boxful of stuff from Oriental Art Supply that is just... inspiring. I got one of their birds and flowers books, a couple kinds of paper, and one of the classical dished ink stones. It's 5" in diameter, and very smooth and wonderful, no corners for ink stick ink to dry in as the stuff hardens with the lacquer in it, so it's important to be able to clean it out thoroughly each time I use it. I want to uuuuuse it! But I gotta run to training.
John has a cold, and when it keeps him up at night, it's been kind of keeping me up as well. Bleh... I'm drinking Airborne like crazy and I hope it'll keep me well until after the trip. *laughs* I usually do okay if I hit enough stress points often enough, my body seems to understand Not Now, but I'll pay for it later. *laughs*

I should talk with you and SophiaP about what's next with Winter War and if I might work on something on the plane...

Date: 2010-02-18 04:56 am (UTC)I had to be kind of careful with some of the scheduling to make sure I had the time to get to the hospital for the mammogram with the additional time they wanted me to put in to start. And it only actually took 15 minutes! That surprised me.
But otherwise it was just doing stuff. *laughs*

Date: 2010-02-18 04:56 am (UTC)Well, of everyone here, your todo list is probably twice as long as mine. No wonder you're tired to start! Goodness... *hugs happily*

Date: 2010-02-18 04:57 am (UTC)Thanks! *laughs* And I should get together with you and incandescens sometime before I fly to see if I can't take a piece of story while I'm on the plane...

Date: 2010-02-18 08:18 am (UTC)The inkstone sounds really lovely; I can understand why you're itching to get started with it.

Date: 2010-02-18 09:07 pm (UTC)As you said earlier, there is something viscerally pleasing about using an ink stick instead of the bottled stuff, and the stone is the other half of the pleasure of it, I think.
I'm so happy with the circular ink stone it's amazing... *laughs*
