A lovely 20.3 ℃ in the Computer Suite of #TealLensman at 6:18 a.m. I'll take it!
Left the kitchen door ajar overnight. Not that it was that cold, but dumb. Dumb. The cats didn't mind tho
#TealLensman
Me about to read science fiction graphic novels in the front yard of #TealLensman, now that spring has settled in. 🌼
After particularly extensive and productive octo-neuro therapy yesterday I bought new shower curtains and a teal memory foam bathroom mat, had a nice artichoke quiche for brunch, and basically snoozed with my cats for the rest of the day.
#TealLensman
Dreary day. Overcast, 11 °C, thunderstorms & rain into the week. We’ll see if I get help with the curtains today.
#TealLensman
#SpringCleaning. Changed the curtains, etc. #TealLensman is much airier now.
For the first time since forever I’ve drawn the thick red bedroom curtain to let the sunlight in (one of the signs of spring).
#TealLensman
For some brain dead reason Mother’s printer connected via Wi-Fi, which it decided it doesn’t like anymore. All my coax are at #TealLensman of course.

•••Three hour delay and I slept through it. ’Twas Minnesota #Powerball last time.
•••#TealLensman is weird. No space for both a pillar candle & Aelian’s Miscellany on the toilet tank or for the candle alone on the sink cabinet.
•••Back to the heat, all reet, all reet! 🤖
Steady rain, which is welcome. Bought a v/nice long red "Oriental" rug at the Society of St. Vincent de Paul for $20 to serve as a replacement office chair mat, #TealLensman being wood floored. Surprised at how expensive retail foyer mats are. So now I'll have more room to scoot back...!
How lazy can I be? Very. The food is here. The Internet is here. The books are here.
#TealLensman
A day full of rain, so a good day for householder projects (which is why I’m texting this from bed).
#TealLensman
Busy bee, busy bee... Paid bills. bought smart watch on sale to track sleep cycle... Safe deposit box fu w/Mother (who had a life before she met Dad)... Weeding the front yard by increments...
#cicnyzilska (replaces #TealLensman because I'm pretentious, and after all, it's…
I’m at #TealLensman for the duration –might as well spiff up the place.
⚮⚮⚮Putting a stop[ to losing canes and Gerber knives.
⚮⚮⚮Annoyed self by being unable to lay hands immediately on the vented to stir the stew. I felt that wood was appropriate for this purpose.
⚮⚮⚮Set off smoke alarm, bumped head.
#TealLensman
Realized the art deco nightlight was too bright for the bedroom so I put it in the futon (living) room.
#TealLensman
Planted one yam, two fingerling potatoes of different colors, and and garlic in the flower bed. Also bought 1.36 kg of shiny black thistle for the small yellow birdfeeder, the grid of which is suitable for such. The orange-bellied chickadees were all hanging out at Big Blue, I noticed.
#TealLensman
Awakening turns on Cube Clock; it is nicely 12:00 UTC, so I've slept one extra hour. Moments later I bing it to record its accuracy vis-Š-vis an atomic clock somewhere. It does not turn on. The Pauli affect in action! I'll have to feed it more AAA batteries and start a new round.
#TealLensman
Retired #TealLensman as too pretentious and commissioned #lenjocicna as being even more pretentious.
It’s #Lojban.®
Daffodil bulbs need to be planted in autumn, so in a throwback to my childhood I'm planting potato cultivars to join the garnet yam. Watered daily the quotidian baking potato generates lots of lush dark green leaves (albeit tiny taters, which aren't the point).
#TealLensman
Either my memory is truly flaking off or the Stasi is back in business. Where is the borrowed spade? The two rolls of Scotch tape? Where did this chic small glass jar emblazoned "La fermière / Depus 1952" into which I now place used tea bags come from...?!? Inquiring minds want to know!
#TealLensman
Cold and drizzly enough that I put the heater on. I’d thought we were past that.
#TealLensman
In the winter I typically have the bedroom at ≤19 °C. Experimentally for this cold spring morning I jacked it up to 21, and at 12.8 it didn’t cycle to maintain that temperature, just stayed on. The #ADU #TealLensman shall def. have modern R-factor...!
•••I’ve turned heaters on, for Lord’s sake.
•••“AI” cannot handle exasperated eye-rolls.
•••My bookplate project is off to a good start...

#TealLensman…
Skipped my 2:00 p.m. nap and went clonk therefore. I think ten hours...? And at a balmy 23 ℃, too, having set the wall heater too high. I now know the gravity blanket suffices thermally.

#TealLensman
I am becoming quite the maven in the kitchen. Bought lots of vegetables at WinCo, chopped a few of them and chicken hearts up. They are now being slow-cooked with rice.
#TealLensman
Cleared most of the deck of last year’s leaves, dismantled some ugly furniture and made art of it, rearranged the bird feeders and planted a yam.

Plans for that 21x13 cm space between the bathroom sink & wall: Stacking cat litter plastic jugs or (alternating) shoe boxes.
#TealLensman
Cleaned the bathroom. Considered placing Ivory soap next to the Neutrogena.

Rather than gallivanting I cleaned the Computer Suite yesterday. Not to the extent of moving furniture, mind you, but it looks less like an archaeological dig. Photos to follow.
#TealLensman
Part of my morning routine is checking my two UTC digital clocks against an atomic clock. The thought struck me that ceritus paribus DC would be accurate than AC. Discuss.

11 °C is too cool to be in here (my bedroom). Not that I’m going outside...

Drew the curtain and, gods, how many dust motes are there‽

I’ve missed my calling as an interior decorator, I think.
#TealLensman
⚮⚮⚮Factory reset my Wi-Fi and still no joy. Most annoying!
⚮⚮⚮#TealLensman is ready for spring. More airy, more outside light, less thermal compartmentalization (no central heating –the owner had Big Plans for these two lots and tore out the gas line).
⚮⚮⚮Now if I can just arrange to glance out any window and not see a frickin' broham Sausage Fest...
Didn’t have to mess with more substantial curtain rods at all –just repurposed what I had at hand. #TealLensman’s much more airy & light now as suits #Spring2024. Early morning #frost yesterday…
Lo! I have installed a fitted sheet without copious use of Anglo-Saxon who even am I anymore
#TealLensman
Placed the art deco nightlight such that the northern window toggles its sensor.
#TealLensman
Installed the dual smoke detector above the bedroom inasmuch as its surrounded by fuel and, on occasion, frat kids exploring the hallucinogenic effects of beer. Ridiculous that #TealLensman had two 18-year-old units at all!
Put the dual smoke detector above the bedroom window. The backyard is nothing but fuel!
#TealLensman
First sit-out on the Famous NE Deck, this after a 4.3 km stroll. Bought another shower curtain rod, clips, and one of those weird soap holders. 18.2 °C; lots of kids getting ahead of St. Patrick’s.
#TealLensman
For some flibbertigibbet reason my computer had two fire alarms—one on the ceiling and one just above the door frame, several centimeters apart—whereas the living room had just one defunct 18-year-old-one which couldn't even be tested. Might put in a maintenance request. #TealLensman
Despite resets, 1Password, and nearly throwing it out the window I have been unable to change my #wifi to #TealLensman. #Bluetooth isn’t doing me any favors either.
ᵠPleased to hear that Elder Nephew has landed an ideal position in his chosen industry.
ᵠTook out the bubble wrap, etc. and duct taped the AC window. Utilitarian is pretty.
ᵠOrganizing my pens such that the .07 mm are reserved for scrap paper and the .38 mm for the less ephemeral, as one does.
