Minor whoops

unicorndukeI was cleaning things yesterday and glanced at a window in the hallway by the front door and realized I had set mail on the sill at some point. The curtains block the sill partially too. I picked the mail up and looked through it, only one bit of important mail and it was sending in a summary of sidejob work to the state by September 30th. Oops. So the mail had been there since oh, probably Sept 20th.
It's looking at the plans I write and collating them by county and watershed, so I sat down and got that all done in around two hours yesterday morning. Sent it via email and they acknowledged receiving it first thing this morning. Whew. Now I just need to do continuing credits for my certification.
I didn't finish weaving but I'm very close, I just need to sit for another hour or so and weave. I taped together a sewing pattern that I'm kinda working on, now I need to cut it out and start cutting cloth (I think???). I also read two books, working through the Sharing Knife series by Lois McMaster Bujold. Why haven't I heard of her before this? I read a lot of fantasy novels in the 2010s but somehow none of her books. I stopped reading books for a while starting in college (fanfiction replaced it) but surely I would have heard of her. Oh well, I'm working through her books now with speed.
I baked bread yesterday since I was very much out and buying the best gluten free bread in the grocery store is still way worse than my middling bread. I just made yogurt this morning, forgetting about it twice but it didn't burn or get too hot, so it's fine. I made carrot cake on Friday night which is delicious but it makes a 9x13 pan and that's a lot so I'm doing carrot cake distribution. So far I've managed RR at Rhinebeck, some into the freezer for my mom this weekend, some with F for family dinner. I'm planning to take some to work event tomorrow and then eat the rest.
I cleaned The Pile too, which had been there since I re-arranged the room to move Mara to the other side of the room. It was clean laundry in a basket, dirty laundry on the floor, dog blankets that needed a home, fleeces, crafting stuff in bins, some items that came in the mail. Sorted it all and put it away. The fleeces have to stay out but they're the nice ones I just got so maybe I'll work on them this week while it's 70F (????) around work stuff. I also got the AC unit out of the window and into the basement. I don't understand how it gets water everywhere when I hold a towel fully underneath it to catch the water.
