* A little bit of a hard day; I had an aching jaw all day (probably from holding my mouth in an unnatural position the day before). I'm also just tired.
* There's a chance that Lynn and her husband are going to Heard Nature Center on Saturday, and offered to pick me up on the way. And then I thought, wait, they might want to use the restroom. And then I thought - holy crap my house is a pit. Yes, I had been needing to clean it but when you don't have a reason it's harder to motivate yourself. I spent a couple hours this afternoon - that was mostly sorting - and will spend more time tomorrow actually *cleaning* - vacuuming, cleaning the bathroom counters and floors.
Even if it's just a "pick up and drop off" without them coming in, or even if they *can't* come (like: it's raining), it needed to be done, and at least I did it.
For me, the worst part of cleaning is putting stuff away - I have a lot of clutter, I have a small house, and when I get busy stuff gets strewn everywhere because I take things out and can kind of step over them for weeks then.
* I've mostly been working on the garter stitch corner-to-corner blanket. I'm not *too* far, I think, from being able to start the decreases. I'm surprised how long this cake lasted - I think I bought three but I may not even use all of two.
* One more week of classes. I still have a bunch of grading and final exams to prep (and part of the last hourly exam to write).
* I guess I can (almost) say I made it through systematic botany; I have one more exam to finish, the final to write, and one more lab to prepare.
