(no subject)

My arms are hurting me a lot again (combo of bad posture & computer habits + extra work at the reception desk + extreme heat = pain) so I shouldn't even be typing this but:

I cooked something yummy for dinner for myself for the first time in a long time. I picked up my friend Amy's farmshare this week* and there was this gigantic bunch of Swiss chard that would not fit in the fridge so I was forced to cook it. And then I made quinoa, and then I realized that I desperately needed some cheese on top so I walked down to the local liquor store and there I got cheese and also I ran into my neighbor C (the one who helped me rescue myself from the 2nd floor porch a few summers ago) and we chatted and then she told me how her yard is all over collard greens and I should totally take some. So...a close source of endless free collard greens is pretty nifty.

And now my hands really hurt. Yes, I have made a doctor's appointment. This time when I go to occupational therapy I promise I will keep doing my exercises even when things don't hurt as much.

(Seriously: all the heat we've been having is causing me physical pain. Perhaps I was meant to live in the far north. Ugh.)

*I spread the haul out on the kitchen counter and took photos. So. Many. Veggies.
