Quiet morning

Rosie's synchronized swim duet is done for the season, so no more having to get her up for 7:45 am practice on Saturday mornings!

I woke up this morning on my own, with no alarm, stretched for a while, took my pills, fed the cats, and had a quiet breakfast of two eggs, a clementine, a quarter of an avocado, lightly salted, and my morning powder medicine in half a cup of apple juice.

While cooking I enjoyed one of the pinwheels Rosie baked yesterday, filled with a dollop of strawberry jam and dusted with cinnamon sugar.

I worked on the shopping list a little, checking to see what ingredients we have for the carrot cake we are planning to make Sunday for the birthday of a college student who is staying with us for a few months, and also did some strategizing for an upcoming rearrangement of rooms.

As I have been predicting literally since we bought this house, Rosie has now decided she would like to move out of the small room next to ours with the carpeted floor and pretty wallpaper, into the larger corner room, which has two windows, a closet twice the size, and walls she can paint to her own whims. That room has been serving as a craft room, so of course we have to empty it before she can move in.

We are also hoping to garage sale some of the little kid stuff we don't need anymore, but Rosie's synchro team has one more meet, in CT on June 4, and the following weekend we'll be busy with Pride, so my strategy cannot expect things like the kids kitchenette in the basement to clear out until sometime later. I like operational geekiness, though, so this is fun.

A lovely morning, and a fun project!
