Cleaning before inspection

 

Tuesday

I got up at 7:30, hearing Chris take his shower. Not sure if I slept better after the sauna. I got ready for the day. I brought in the gallon of milk and it was slushy from the cold. I poured half in a pot and heated it to 100, then added a yogurt probiotic. I put it in the dehydrator to cure.

I practiced my trombone and did squats. Then I went to check on 215 to see if it was ready for inspection. It was not. I spent the next three hours scrubbing everything. I texted Tarah about it.

I went home for a late breakfast. She called and we talked about it. Then I went back to 215 for inspection. The inspectors hardly looked at it and we signed the papers. Then I found Tarah and gave her her portion of the money.

I went to Saronna's house to practice. We talked and played through the hymns. We decided that Lord of the Dance would work for Easter. Michelle dropped by to tell us she is now off probation. She was very happy. After she left, we practiced When the Saints Go Marching In. Then her husband called, so I packed up.

I went to Jamie's house to clean. At 3:45 Isadora showed up. We talked about the bathrooms. I went back to cleaning the window downstairs. She invited me up to check the bathroom. I pointed out some more things and went down again. At 4:45, John texted asking if I was working there. I said yes, but then Isadora finished upstairs and wanted a ride home. Since I had a quilt guild meeting at 5, I took her home and I went home.

I signed into the Zoom call. While it played, I mixed up rennet for the milk. I also made supper. I wondered why Chris didn't come home. It was after the meeting that he arrived. He said he just had extra stuff to do. I went back to listening to a podcast.

Then the dehydrator beeped. I pulled the cheese out and sliced the curds. I worked on my blog. I separated the curds from the whey. I made tea and we watched an episode of Criminal Minds.

I set up the steam sauna and gathered a towel and water bottle and plastic card. I sat in for some time before I got suspicious. As it turns out, the timer works on winding, but the unit was not on because the power strip was off. I turned it on, did a few errands, then sat inside. The steam came on and I sweated like crazy. When I got out, Chris was in bed. I got ready for bed and joined him. However, sleep was a long time coming.
