Ok. So proud of myself today.
I got the chapter done this morning. Twenty days late, and Big A eyes glazed over when I summarized it on our walk yesterday, and the editor hasn't seen or approved it. But at this moment, I think it's a good first draft.
And then in the afternoon, I single-handedly shopped, cooked, and (six hours later) served a fancy four-course Indian meal for the UU fundraiser. I think this is my fourth year of doing this "Evening in India" thing, so I have the menu, prep, and production down to an exact science. I like to pretend I'm running a restaurant--do other grown ups do this too? 😂 A couple of guests remarked that they were so happy to get in this year because they'd tried to bid on my offering for a couple of years but the bids went up so quickly. I said something self-deprecating, but I preened a little bit on the inside when I heard that.

You should be trumpeting your accomplishments! What a super productive day!
Thanks, NGS! I hope Dr. BB met his July 15th deadline?
Congratulations!
Congrats on finishing the piece.
We have trumpet vine in our yard. It grows so fast and sticks out blocking the sidewalk, but I hate to cut it. (I do though because we've been cited by the city for it more than once.)
