the_rckI baked both banana bread and brownies yesterday. I ran the dishwasher in between, so I didn't have to hand wash the mixing bowl. I actually ran out of cinnamon in the small container while I was making the banana bread and had to pull out the big container to refill the small one. It was about 6:30 when I made the brownies, and they had to bake about an hour. Cordelia was really antsy to have one, so she kept running into the kitchen while they were cooling to see if they were cool enough to cut yet. Of course, she has no idea how cool brownies need to be for cutting, so that was less than useful.
I also managed to get myself to call my doctor's office. I have a prescription that has no refills left. If I'd seen her on 2 February, the way I was supposed to, this wouldn't have been a big deal, but I won't see her until the 30th of this month, and I couldn't do without in the meantime. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to have been a big deal. The pharmacy called last night to say that the prescription was ready for pick up. I suppose it's unlikely that anybody's abusing omeprozole (Prilosec). I was just a little worried that my doctor wouldn't want to do the scrip given that she wasn't the one who prescribed the med in the first place. I haven't seen the gastroenterologist who did prescribe it in more than a year, so she couldn't have renewed it.
Scott actually had to work this morning, 3 a.m. to 7 a.m. He went to bed later than he should have, given that, but the last few weeks, he's been scheduled to do that, and they haven't actually needed him to come in. I think he was assuming it would be that way this week. Unfortunately not. He says that the shift was really and truly awful. He talked to the shift leader after the shift was over, and the shift leader says he thinks he's going to apply for the open leader spot on second shift because he thinks second shift will be less awful.
On the writing front, I managed about three hundred more words. I didn't manage to get the characters to leave the room where they've been since the start of the chapter, but I did get some forward progress in other way. I'm a little concerned that one character may be showing too much of what she can do given that she doesn't entirely trust the other two characters, but, on the other hand, she may be underlining that they shouldn't mess with her.
I'm not sure what I'll cook for dinner tonight-- I'd like to do something with ground turkey, but the last time I looked in the fridge, that still had frost on it even though it's been in the fridge for two days. Scott just bought some chicken breasts, and I could do those, but I think Cordelia would really appreciate a break from chicken.
I'm up earlier this morning than I usually would be on a Saturday (though it's about the time I'd normally get up on a school day. I'm not sure what that's about. I don't feel like I really slept after Scott got up at 2 a.m. I must have, but I feel like I tossed and turned and didn't really sleep. I was cold, too. As it turns out, I'd thrown off one of my blankets and didn't realize it.
There's no school Monday, but it will be just me and Cordelia. The mother of the other kids who'd normally come over is working the night shift that day and so can be home with them. I have no idea when she expects to sleep, but I suppose that's not my problem. She did say that she'll really need me to take them during spring break in April because she'll be working long, day time shifts.
