Done This Week

A new project has landed at work that is super urgent, involves collaboration with another site, and has pushed up the timeline for my work on a new piece of equipment. So this week, I’m essentially moonlighting as my old position AND doing my current work. This has been stressful and exhausting, and I am a very tired creature now.

Meanwhile, it is suddenly 100 degrees! Because I live in hell. Every year, I forget just how passionately I hate summer.

Lewisia: 3 new pieces written, May posts queued

Day job: 43.75 hours, and it’s like I’m a setup tech all over again with all its attendant stresses

Cleaning: septic tank repairs completed

Gardening: weeding with my new corn knife ✪ω✪

Listening: Dream Fist by Eve 6 (if you are of my age bracket, you may well remember them as a one-hit wonder for “Inside Out,” turns out they’ve been making music all these years, a solid alt-rock album)

Aftermarket Parts: passed the three-month mark, so I can raise my arms with impunity \o/

Clock Mouse: 1359 words

Other: unloaded hay twice
