Yesterday was a very productive day. I congratulated myself and made a cup of tea.
Today is a counter point to yesterday. There are, at this point, no more items on the immediate to-do list. My job today as charged by my parents is, strictly, to "take some time and think if you'll need anything else for Davis." When my parents tell me to "take some time and think" I will, inevitably, sit down and think. The result usually involves a headache and more lists (speaking of which, I've quite a number of THOSE already). Then the list will lead to more tea which will lead to more thinking and therefore more tea and...the cycle will go on until I recall that there's a life outside of tea and list-making and I wander off to do something else. Usually also involving paper.
Currently nine cacti have sprouted under my care, though more will be coming. According to the manual some of the seeds are timed so that they take a year to germinate. Quite a test of patience there. The spiders have made their entry into the household and I flattened two while reading the other day (they crawled over my book, I was trying to read, and ergo-). The battle against the wasps had been fought and won, and the ants haven't tried anything funny...yet. (When 10% of the biomass are them, you're bound to be a little wary.)
Off to do more thinking then.
Also, "ladies, please come and pick up your gents".
