2:58 am
grannyrose

i used to make my own schnitzels. i had my own recipe of bread crumbs and herbs and spices. it was different each time, as i used what i thought went together.
3:00 am
Dianne

I have these panko, lemon pepper, bread crumbs made by Progresso - they are wonderful.
3:01 am
grannyrose

sound yummy, dianne. but i have to be careful with warm spices like chili, and pepper
3:04 am

Son, women (sigh), women are a kin to the ocean
Riding the currents of their emotions
Through cold and warm
Swelling, ebbing
Pulled by silvery moon
To navigate their shifting tides
One must be a patient sea captain
Hurricanes and tempests may steal your hope
Hold fast! Secure the rigging!
Listen to the wind though, my son
Her siren's song will guide you through to safe harbor
On those days when you reach calm waters
The aches she soothes in your soul
Will be worth any perfect storm

When I was in the tropics, I marveled at the idea that the sun rose and set at the same time all year round.

The rival between Sydney and Melbourne I think is normally about the 'better' city - for living, social standings etc etc.
5:35 pm

You didn't have to find out when sunrise was. You had to find out when high tide was.

easy to do. I am going to play for a little and then take myself early to bed I think, I mostly relaxed today. Tom did a lot of housework and baking, but I was doing not much of anything...
8:36 pm

I am not trying to finish the grid, it seems a bit large
8:37 pm

i dealt with a migraine today, whee. it's gone now.
8:37 pm
stidmama

how was your day? overly balmy, I think?
8:37 pm
featherbee

yes, weirdly so
8:37 pm
featherbee

the balmy weather wreaked havoc with my head
8:37 pm
stidmama

sorry to hear about the migraine. I think my lethargy is also related to migraine symptoms... likely also weather related.
8:37 pm
featherbee

yep
8:38 pm
featherbee

some odd endings. just keep adding to words.
8:39 pm
stidmama

I wouldn't mind balmy though, I would love to work in the garden but when it's cold my hands don't work well. I have five trees that desperately need pruning, that I cannot touch until it warms up just a bit.
8:39 pm
stidmama

yep. I am getting more words, but from the biggest tiles, not the obscure ones. :-)
8:40 pm
featherbee

how's the house coming?
8:41 pm
stidmama

I bought a tub yesterday (pic on the webpage) and the downpayment for the gas fireplace yesterday too. We have skylights in so the house is not getting wet inside anymore, but it has a lot of drying out to do.
8:41 pm
stidmama

It's going to be nice, I think, when it's done. It feels like a decent layout, anyway.
8:41 pm
featherbee

ooooo, skylights, great idea
8:41 pm
stidmama

But I have NO idea when it will be done. Just hopes...
8:41 pm
featherbee

more light=good
8:41 pm
featherbee

not knowing and waiting is always hard, in anything
8:42 pm
stidmama

around here if I don't add natural lights from the ceiling I have to put in full-spectrum bulbs and keep them on all the time.
8:42 pm
stidmama

I am starting to think about all the fixes I will need to do in the yard, also. There's a LOT I will have to replace and fix once the construction guys leave.
8:42 pm
featherbee

i need to look into that. our LR and DR are always darkish.
8:43 pm
stidmama

sola tubes help too -- I will have one in my office, one in each bathroom and two in the hallway.
8:43 pm
stidmama

And the two skylights in the living spave.
8:43 pm
stidmama

space
8:44 pm
featherbee

sola tubes?
8:44 pm
stidmama

The sola tubes in the hallway will have LED lights already built in so I won't need to also have an actual light fixture. :-) They are more expensive with the LEDs, but I think it will be overall less than adding can lights to the hallway.

8:47 pm
featherbee

what a great idea
8:48 pm
stidmama

I put a french door in our bedroom in place of a window... but because I didn't think ahead, there is no other window to open in that room for ventilation. So later on I will need to figure out how to do that. Maybe little windows on the wall where the bed goes...
8:48 pm
stidmama

Things that you just don't "see" or think about until you are walking through, you know?
8:48 pm
featherbee

yep, makes sense
8:49 pm
featherbee

everyone must be doing christmas-y stuff.
8:49 pm
featherbee

seems quiet in here
8:49 pm
stidmama

where we live it's fine to leave the door cracked open at night, though. Just need a screen for the mosquitos... but no worries about prowlers.
8:50 pm

It is quiet. Or they are just done. People seemed to finish this grid pretty swiftly.
8:50 pm

8:51 pm

We had a really low-key solstice. We didn't cook or anything this year -- all my regular observances have been left by the wayside because I just can't handle the "one more thing" yet.
8:51 pm
stidmama

maybe next year...
8:51 pm
stidmama

LOL poor kid. My middle-schoolers were pretty well "shot" by Thursday. I didn't ask or expect anything big from them Friday.
8:51 pm
featherbee

next year should be nice for you
8:51 pm
featherbee

yep, me either
8:53 pm
stidmama

I am looking forward to next solstice. We will be in our home again and the garden will be in full swing. It will be a good time to put the sad times behind us and celebrate looking ahead.

9:05 pm
stidmama

well, down to 60. would love to keep playing, but still trying to "nail down" how I want the kitchen island to hold and look like. I think I have the basic info now (that was my focus today) so the rest of this evening is for sketching based on the measurements of available storage containers...
9:05 pm

down to 40 here

9:13 pm

any finish date yet?

no idea, TO -- hoping before a year has passed (we are at 9 months already) but no clear end date yet.
9:18 pm

how's apartment living?
9:28 pm
stidmama

I hate it. I have always disliked city living, and although this is a really really nice apartment in a great location, it's not my dream.
9:29 pm
72 Temple Owl

it will be ok once you are back home. hope the weather stays nice enough to keepthings on track so you can be there soon
9:33 pm
stidmama

thanks TO -- now that the roof is fully closed in (got skylights in about a week ago) things can dry out. The gas lines are in now, and the electrician will do a walk-through with us on Thursday... should have an inspection by the end of the first week in January. Maybe sooner. But the insulation and drywall and finishing work will take a long time, I have been warned.
9:34 pm
stidmama

At least now it will start getting lighter so I can go out after work and see what has been done. It's too dark after school right now for me to go out there. I really want to have power in so I can be there after dark!
