Nov. 21st, 2016 12:15 pmMy Achille’s tendon almost didn’t hurt at all yesterday. It’s hurting today, though, at the levels I’ve come to consider the baseline. I did some stretches on Saturday but not yesterday, so that may have made a difference. The thing about the stretches, though, is that doing them left me hurting a lot Saturday evening and that I’m not supposed to do them to the point of pain. I’ll have to figure out how to balance that because being able to walk around the house without trying to plan each excursion for minimum steps and maximum business taken care of was really, really nice.
We didn’t go to the library until after 5:00, so it was dark when we did. Cordelia came along, just to get out of the house.
Parents doing drop off and pick up at Cordelia’s school have been obnoxious enough to the folks at the church across the street from the school that the church is no longer willing to offer parking for pick up, drop off, and school events. I think the school events thing has been going on for as long as the church and school have both been there. It’s always been a reciprocal thing with the school offering overflow parking for weekend and evening church events.
I suspect that a good bit of the difference is that our school population has changed a lot and now skews toward white people with a lot of money. From what the principal said in her email, parents were parking on the grass and yelling at the pastor when he objected. Parents have also been stopping in places where it’s not legal to (or safe to) in order drop off or pick up their kids, so now there are cops lurking around to catch them and ticket them.
I wrote about another 500 words yesterday, but I keep hitting points, in every single WIP, where I have no idea at all what comes next. I suppose it helps that I’ve got half a dozen or so different things I can switch between, but I really, really want to get this Yuletide story done. I’ve still got a good bit of time, but getting it done sooner would make me happy.
( To do list )
