Had a couple friends over today. Made lunch for us all. Boiled brats, sliced beets & zucchini and rubbed olive oil on 'em and seasoned 'em w/ground black pepper and onion powder. Then the BF BBQ'd it all. Made numerous trips up and down the back stairs between the backyard and the kitchen.
It felt SO good reconnecting w/these folks. Had a pleasant, uncomplicated time chatting. Artsy/Crafty'ness happened. When they left, I took advantage of the not-yet-way-too-hot afternoon & evening by reading in the backyard. For dinner, I baked salmon and made a green salad, adding in the tomatoes my friends'd harvested from their yard earlier today. Mmm... Managed to do more standing around and cooking. This is good progress.
Planning on taking it easy the next few days. Watering will happen. Will turn on the upstairs AC tomorrow afternoon, as it's the first of three (3) days with forecast highs over 100. (UGH!) Planning to Go Coastal (Depoe Bay-ish) on Monday. I have PT late AM Tuesday. Might see a movie afterwards, but might also head home and spend the rest of the day i the AC'd guest space.
Feels good to feel good, as I'd hit some low lows recently and figured I'd emerge eventually from the depths, and now I have.
