Aloe and cheese

Monday

I got up around 7:30. I took supplements, and drank magnesium water. I read e-mail, and posted to the Facebook page about band tonight. I watered the outdoor plants. I moved the aloe to a sunnier spot and it broke off.

I went to the post office to mail a card. I went by Housing to check on the inspection times. I scanned two hymns and printed them out larger. I typed up lyrics to go with the Broadway tunes we will be playing tonight.

I parsed supplements for the week. I made breakfast, and ate while listening to something. Before 2 I went to 632 for inspection. It passed, but some things had been left behind. Sigh. Then I went to the next house. I cleared the last of the stuff from the storage room. I read until the inspectors showed up. As they inspected, I told them what was wrong with the house. Afterward, dropped off the keys at Housing.

I sat in the sun and read. Then I heated a gallon of goat milk in the big black pot. I attached the automatic stirrer and let it go. In response to a text, I drove to the swap shop to unlock the door and turn the light on. When I got back, I prodded the ground to find gopher tunnels and put ammonia-soaked cottonballs in them.

I flattened boxes in the front hall and took them to the recycling bin. I unloaded the cleaning stuff from my car. I washed a load of cleaning cloths and mop pads. I ate supper and turned up the heat on the goat milk to hasten the process. I was able to scoop most of the curds before I had to leave. I took my trombone and music to the chapel. Saronna was already there and Keli was right behind me. As I put my trombone together, I realized I was already tired. So I sat and talked to Keli while Saronna got her kids situated. Then we played through the two hymns, and several of the Broadway tunes. Afterward, we packed up, turned off all the lights and locked the doors.

It was after 8 when I got home. I put my music stuff in the house. Then I put the mouse trap on a different bucket and put the first bucket under a tree, slightly canted. I hoped a predatory bird would knock it over to get the mouse out.

I finished scooping the cheese and put the leftover whey back into bottles. I took supplements and made tea. I worked on my blog. I watched an episode of Call the Midwife. I got ready for bed, then queued up a lucid dreaming meditation and settled into the recliner with the weighted blanket. It was very relaxing until the commercials kicked in at the end. I listened to it again, then paused it and went to bed.
