A Blah Day
It seems wrong to go a day without putting something here. I doubt if anyone is actually looking, so I’m only disappointing myself, but if I can’t be there for me, who will?
I’d do another picture post, that was fun, but I seem to have killed the camera. It was a cheapie to begin with, and I really want another one anyway, but the timing is bad. There just isn’t any extra room in the budget right now. I do want more pixels though! I also want a camera that doesn’t have this half a second delay between the flash and the picture taking. RM appears drunk in most of her pictures because first it flashes, then she blinks, and then it takes the picture. I’m not sure how that works, because everything is still lit well, but I don’t have that problem with other camera, just mine, so something is up with it.
Honestly I think it’s just too hot to function. I wish I could sleep all day and get stuff done all night. The boys would probably be all for that, something seems to be more interesting to them about playing video games all night long. But considering how fragile the night sleeping schedule is for a 10 month old baby, I don’t think I’ll try and mess with it.
I have figured out the one thing this heat is good for - drying clothes outside, especially wools. So I’ve been working through all my wool diaper soakers and giving them all a good washing and lanolin treatment and hanging them outside to dry. They are ready in about 6 hours instead of the usual 48. There’s my silver lining to the heatwave cloud. Honestly, I’d take the longer drying time, any day.
