Adventures of a well-rounded geek
Today has been an extremely busy day for me. After breakfast I biked to the community garden to water and weed. The tomato and pepper plants are doing really well from what I can tell. They're growing bigger and the leaves are looking good. My chives and cucumber have still not come up, can I…
Gene and I are driving to Moab tomorrow for a quick getaway. We'll do some hiking, a river raft excursion, and just relax, it should be lovely. But since I'll be gone for a few days, that meant today was the day I made sure my plants were all in order. I planted the Siberian…
Yesterday was an errand and Satisfactory day. In Satisfactory, I'm catching up to where Gene and I are in the game. I'm very proud of my set up, I planned it out on physical paper and then destroyed my previous mess of a place and rebuilt. (Satisfactory is an optimization factory building game.) With Gene's…
Today I went to Front Range Community College to meet with an adviser about the horticulture program, get my student ID, and find my classrooms. I was successful in doing all of those things, in fact all of my questions were answered plus some, so that made me happy. But what really intrigued me was…
First day of my first full week at home without a job. I started with exercise and then had a lovely breakfast of yogurt, bananas, and the new peach hazelnut granola I just bought from Sprouts. I have to say, the granola was good (it's also expensive so I won't be getting it often) and…
Sidney and I went to Lowe's today for a variety of reasons and I'm happy to say it was a successful trip. While I did not purchase lattice to use as a privacy screen, I did find some to think about and I got everything else on my list! I am so glad Sidney was…
Calla lily from a coworker First day without a job and I haven't done much. I remind myself that that's okay. I no longer, at least not right now, have to feel pressured to make my weekends full of productivity because every day is open to me now. I am curious to see how I…
Working at the community garden I volunteered at my community garden yesterday, raking out mulch and pulling weeds. Only two other ladies were there when I came over so it was nice and calm and quiet. We ended up sitting at the picnic tables and visiting for a bit which was also fun. And before…
EG's card Guess what absolutely wonderful thing I received yesterday? A card from EG! Kaitlin and EG surprised me with an adorable handmade card in the mail. There was even a "snail mail" sticker sealing the envelope. I love it. EG's little fingerprints create flowers for the outside of the card and the inside is…
Impossible meat burrito bowl The housemates and I had Qdoba for dinner yesterday and I finally tried Impossible burger meat. I've been wanting to try it ever since I took a bite of Sidney's burger last summer. This was my first chance to so I leapt at it. The "meat" was spiced a bit strong…
