ianukWell, I'm up, rested, fed and caffeinated. Time to start the day. The girls were very happy to have me home for snugly sleep. I was glad to be in my own bed but it was nice to have a balcony with a nice view and the nice cool weather in Portland. Was happy to come home to richard being there...it was nice to show off the purchases for the trip, share cookies and chat. Mel bough an xboc 360 while I was gone...not happy about that but its his cash...he'll just have to make sure he's not playing it all of the time.
I slept well and only read about the first chapter or so in the next Stephanie Plum novel. I finished An Ice Cold Grave on the plane ride to tucson and that was very good, though a bit predictable. That would make #11 on the book list. The girls were happy I got up and got them fed and then it was time to find breakfast. Coffee was first though as always. I had an omelet.
Mel also didn't leave me any bread and it seems that most of our good bread books are loaned out. So, I managed to put on an egg loaf since it seems that someone (probably mingo) filled my fridge with things I don't normally buy...like milk. The bread is going well and I can't wait to try it with lunch.
So I figure I'll recap the purchases of the books and things.
2 Books on Shaker Furniture
2 books on archeology of brewing stuff
1 book on building bookcases
3 books on medieval illumination
Bob's Red Mill Baking Book (OMG AWESOME!!!)
3 Books on Spinning, Spinning Wheels/Dyeing
1 Free Deschutes Keychain
2 Deschutes Biking Jerseys
2 Bridgeport Shirts
1 Bobs Red Mill Coffee Mug
5+lbs of Dark Rye Flour
1+ lbs of Dark Rye Pumpernickel Meal
1+ lbs of Mighty Tasty Hot Ceral
1 Jar of Marionberry Jam
1 Powell's Books book bag
1 "Reading is Sexy" bumper sticker
1 Mt. Hood Post Card
3 coasters from Bridgeport
Did you know that Bridgebport is called bridgeport due to portland having so many bridges and its a port? I know that sounds like a "duh, Ianuk" but I hadn't actually thought about it and the shirt I got myself shows all of the bridges on the back.
I do have to say though that on mel's next business trip he better be buy stuff for me and my hobbies...cause man, I look back and very few things for just me and my passions. But eh, its all about us I think. The flour will be good for bread and the other stuff is good for the library and for our shaker furniture fetish. So, time to put on shoes and see if I can find the stone I need to cut so I can carve my mold...then get the house picked up a bit and work on documentation. I was very glad I brought my laptop since I did get a very good run on writing...much further than I had been the previous week.
Oh, so if you haven't figured it out...I'm not going to barmaids...some me time with my projects is sounding really good...I've been on the road/air too much of late.
