Today’s plans were cancelled, alas, due to inconsiderate movie theatres not sticking to the schedule they posted two weeks ago (read: I didn’t double-check to confirm that things were being screened at the same time when I know movie schedules can shift weekly). While I’m disappointed, it does free up the afternoon to continue working on the tech review. I’m still going to have to work over the weekend, but not as much. And now I can look forward to the plans next Friday instead, with the new schedule.
I managed to review an entire chapter last night before I had to go take that bath and go to bed. An acceptable work rate, but I wish I could have done more before I reached the point of not being able to review in a focused and constructive fashion.
Liam seems all right; still has the nasal congestion, still clingy, and a bit cranky, but otherwise okay. He slept really well, thank goodness. I think I’m fighting not to catch the same cold.
I’m going to go heat up the leftovers from yesterday’s excellent dinner and keep working.
Yes, it was disappointing, but with the unexpected extra time after my Kiddie Lit. class I was able to:
-tidy my office desk (long overdue)
-discover and purchase hyacinths (bliss)
-get toiletries (hooray for soap!)
-get groceries (now I can make that chicken pie tonight!)
. . . plus, as a bonus, Jeff has even offered to pick up Devon today because it’s so very cold out, so I can stay home and make supper and not have to venture out again to escort a small, tired—possibly cranky—little girl home on a crowded bus in arctic temperatures.
And, like you said, now I have next Friday to look forward to!
It’s all good!
(Hope Liam is better soon. Please give him a big hug for me!)

How excellent that you accomplished all that in lieu of our original plans! And more to come, even. Huzzah for hyacinths! And huzzah for warm cars in which to transport small children, indeed.
I will hug Liam for you when he has come home.
