jazzfishIt is Hot here, thirties today and tomorrow and Tuesday. I broke out the cold robot a couple of days ago and it has been a lifesaver.
The thing about it being Hot here is that I can turn the AC off at night (it hasn't been so hot I need to run it overnight), and leave it off in the morning. Once the apartment heats up I can do a round of Warm (not quite Hot) Yoga, and reactivate the AC while I shower. Yay problem-solving. Useful while my bike is in the shop getting a tuneup, and also while it is honestly too warm for me to want to go out riding.
Classes are done and I did in fact do almost exactly well in them as I expected. This time next year I'll have my credential and hopefully gainful non-tech-writing employment for the first time in twenty years. I'm looking at contract tech-writer work for an indefinite amount of time this summer/fall/etc. It's giving me the twin sensations of "yep, i can do this" and "i really do not want to be doing this." I have some hope that GIS work won't provide that experience. At least it will also involve some "i have no idea how i'm going to do this" which will keep things interesting.
For now I'm keepin on keepin on. Trying to convince Mr Tuppert to be a lap cat in places other than "bed", which has had some minor success. It's too warm to cook on the stove but maybe I'll do some lentils in the instant pot tomorrow. Yoga, viola, books, maybe some writing tomorrow. Will see.
