2999

Changed things up a bit yesterday.

Talked to the installers and they had a full day, so, you guessed it ...

... walked to the tea house. 

Lovely day for a walk (and a morning run). Nothing but ONES yesterday. Caught 1:11 on the clock too.

Stopped for lunch on the way home since I was running low on food at the house. Sat outside. It was cool and breezy and perfectly FALL. Loved it. Crisp leaves on the ground. Breeze blowing leaves on the table. 

BEST TIME OF THE YEAR!

I have a poetry book with me (forgot that I brought it). Read that instead of a novel so I can get right to my library reads when I get home.

Author selected 44 poems.

Page about why this poem.

Then the poem.

Then the dissection of the poem (use of space, use of punctuation, etc).

It's really interesting. I've read 4 so far and the first one was especially good. 

"A Word on Statistics"

Wislawa Szymborska

Translated by Joanna Huss

Got some books from a few LFLs on the walk. I used to not take books -- save them for someone who needs them, but I want people to take from my LFL, so I decided to "use" other LFLs too. I supply my LFL and add to others too. 

I missed the LIVE webinar so I'll catch the replay. Forgot about it until my alarm loudly reminded me -- oops. Ran into a neighbor on the walk and we chatted all about the shit show that is the government. I haven't seen her in a long time.

HVAC is installed. Dehumidifier is installed. Very few hiccups. Glad I was wrong. 

Time to go home (!!)

But first ....

Not sure exactly. I have to time a pickup of hormones from the compounding pharmacy that closes for a couple of hours midday. That means a later start out the door. It's sort of on the way so I don't want to have to go back out after the drive home.

I have time for something because I'm not in an immediate rush ... hmmmm.

Maybe a shower and get the house ready to go. Then a replay of yesterday ... teahouse and lunch. Teahouse doesn't open until 10 though.

Another option is a walk to breakfast in Asheville and a stop for coffee in Franklin. I haven't stopped these last few trips. I enjoy the beans and I could use another bag. 

I think the second one is the winner, but open to going with the flow. For now, washing sheets and need to start a quick clean (vacuum, bathrooms).

Best get at it. Today's post is 2999. Have a good day. Later gators.
