Again.
Almost dark by 730p. Good thing I work out in the morning.
Did a four-mile run Thursday, another 5-K on Friday. Taking today off to rest and relax, mostly in the kitchen. Scooped up some purple Andean potatoes last night and thought about what to do with them for most of today. Finally settled for olive oil-and-sea salt purple potato chips. Threw together a quick four loaves of bread, did some laundry.
Chatted with the kids' school on Friday. John really wants to do better, and it's being noticed. His guidance counselor is bringing him chocolate chip cookies every week, and he's been OK'ed to take Western Civilization (usually a junior- or senior-level course) next semester. Not bad for a sophomore. And Will's been approved to take ninth-grade algebra -- as an eighth-grader! None too shabby.
Chickens are getting as big as eagles. We've been feeding them a fair amount of weeds, green apples and compost-y things like watermelon rinds. Bunnies are getting big, too. Been thinking about getting a rainwater cistern at some point, but that's probably going to have to wait quite a while (as will everything I'd like to order from the Lehman's catalog).
Will try increasing my workouts a bit, get some major work done on a day job project, and do a bit of cleaning this week. Supposed to rain all week. Hoping it'll dry up enough for me to finish up the barn next weekend.
