Wrapping up

I did quite a bit today, and I'm sort of winding down before going to sleep. So here's my quiet yatta:


- Washed my hair (it was more effort than it sounds like)
- Accomplished all the job-hunting tasks I had for the day, for the first time in a week
- Went grocery shopping
- Set the meat to marinating for tomorrow's dinner
- Dug and divided the rhubarb (that took a bit of effort)
- Extended the planting bed out front that I started yesterday, with amendments
- Planted five rhubarb crowns in their forever-home out front (at last!!)
- Added two irrigation stubs
- Replaced the mulch
- Cut up a bunch of rosemary trimmings for drying
- Cooked a pan of kheer (reducing 6 cups of milk by half takes a while)
- Cooked daal makhani
- Laid out the spices for the curry to be cooked tomorrow

I heard more about Gallifrey's dirty little secret (their C.I.A.), learned about the issues leading up to the First Council of Nicaea, and watched the first episode of "Invasion of the Dinosaurs" along the way. Quite a day.

Still feeling quite good, and looking forward to tomorrow; I need to put plastic down against the rain, put up blankets against the frost/snow, and hone the scythe blade. I'm told the handles will unscrew, they're just reverse-threaded, so I'll set my dad loose on that. Once I remove the blade, of course. :)

Tom Baker wrote a nice eulogy for Nicholas Courtney.
