This morning I was still trying to clean myself of yesterday. But it turned out to be a superlative morning, with perfect cool, rainy weather, and no jury duty. No matter what happened today, it was a bonus round, so no way to lose.
I translated (or rather, used Google Translate to decode) the meaning in a new Italian cello technique book that I bought, and I cleaned the outside of many of our windows. They flip out in a very convenient way for doing this (no ropes or acrobatics required), but we had never done it before. The result took practically no time or effort, but resulted in incredible catharsis and visibility. I've been staring at the windows outside our window, trying to scrutinize the levels of dirt they might have, now that I can see them more clearly. There's a whole world out there! We get used to not having a lot of light in our apartment, but there was a pretty decent upgrade available.
And then the rest of the day spent on various chores, nothing special except that it was FREE! A walk to the library and bookstore and grocery, organizing matters for the coming year, stacking things in their proper places while listening to NPR, classical music, and watching the rain.
