New Drapes

My Oura ring is asking about my period again -- hormones surged last night and lots of night sweats and little sleep. Geez. 

I'm tired this morning and that doesn't bode well for finishing the court report. I have a first draft so hopefully it won't be much more revision. 

Leaving it to a last minute isn't ideal (although it was "asked" for 10 days early, so I'm fitting into my week). 

I have my annual gyn appointment this morning. Actually good timing to discuss how I'm feeling. Then a drive to a friend's friend's farm to pick up fresh compost for the garden. Awesome and stinky and hadn't planned pickup for today, but I'm not missing the opportunity. I was planning to buy compost this weekend.

I have an afternoon window to work on the report but a contractor and cleaning crew needed to change days and will be here for that window. Last minute can come back and bite, but I'm doing what I can to accommodate my supervisor's request. It'll be nice to have it finished early.

New drapes came for the large slider doors. We need privacy when it's dark -- especially when it gets dark early. I didn't want vertical blinds. This pattern is much better than the blue-gray solid option. I can't decide if this makes the space warm or looks dated. We're still waiting on natural shades for the rest of the kitchen. It's going from modern and open to something else -- and I can't tell if the something is good. 

That said, we're a standing fish bowl and have to have an option for privacy. I hope the shades look nice with the drapes. They were damaged in shipping and are delayed. 

It stormed and rained hard last night. We almost lost power. Good news is no watering the garden today. Storms are possible for tonight too so my evening hike might be rained out. 

The hike yesterday was a lot of fun. We ended up with 7 of us and lots of good conversation. I'm not sure if it was just a good hike or the break had me happy for the day. Either way, I'll take it. 

Have a good day. Later gators.
