edenfallingMy day so far:
1. Slept in until 10:30am because I could and it was lovely. :)
2. Cut my fingernails and toenails.
3. Several of the tiny carrots I planted a few days back have brightened immensely -- their rather sickly yellowish tiny feathered leaves have turned solidly green -- and while others have lost their little leaf sprouts entirely, I retain hope they will try again soon.
In other botanical news, one of my bell peppers has a healthy-looking flower (winter flowers tend to look... weird, shall we say) but the petals were covered in aphids this morning, what the heck. I squished a bunch and sprayed the whole plant with soapy water, and then sprayed all the other peppers and the eggplant for good measure. *sigh*
4. Thoroughly cleaned the car handles and driving apparatus and dashboard and so on with Windex. Brought in two bags of childhood documents which I will let sit for some days before I touch them again.
5. Roasted some zucchini because it needed doing and I'm not going to have time for that tonight.
6. Mom Boss texted me to say that the rental office will be staying open. However, all employees have the option to be "laid off" and collect unemployment if we're not comfortable working. I think I won't take advantage of that.
My Saturday shift has been cut; Miss California will work alone. If I want, I can spend part of Saturday doing some light sanitation work in our three big apartment buildings, but that's not a requirement. I can also reduce my hours during the week, but that's not mandatory.
So I'm going to think it over and decided tomorrow when I can ask a few questions about how the cleaning shift would work in practice.
7. Drove to Not the IRS, where I have finished one of my in-progress returns (this has to be done entirely online now, since we don't want to expose the receptionist to the inherent contamination risks of taking payments in-person) and am waiting for another client to come drop off their documents.
This evening's plan is to attend a Board of Trustees Zoom meeting that's half check-in and half emergency planning session, because we have to recalibrate a whole bunch of stuff for obvious reasons.
