unicornduke My period has decided that headaches and nausea are In this time and I like a fool only took a half dose of meds before leaving for ice skating and had a lovely 45 minutes of incredible sensitivity to the sun, to noise, to temperature, to the movement of the tiny children in the warmup area.
But once we split up and it was two others and the instructor and I had a task, I did much better. I got a half hockey stick to hold this week :)
I need to work on weight shifting while going forward and we started doing backwards edge work which ugh hard. Then we started on one foot turns which also ugh hard. We've hit the issue where half the people are missing one lesson and then the next so now I'm ahead of the others because I've been to every session, one person today missed the last two, one person was missing today, on and on. I suspect I'm the only one practicing between sessions too.
We're going to cover crossovers next time, which I know already but I'd like pointers on. The person teaching watches hockey so she's been helping me and that's why she gave me the half hockey stick to carry while doing certain things like pumping and stroking.
I made venison meatloaf, yesterday I think? I'm tired with the nighttime dog shenanigans. It's super moist and tasty and like full of flavor. I've had some bland meatloaf and this was much better. I made some marinara sauce to go with it.
I've got cherry brownies in the oven right now so I can eat them and also take some with me tomorrow to A's farm. I need to go collect all my peppers and tomatoes and print my list because they're going to start them for me so I'm working a couple of days in exchange.
I'm going to head to PA too. I have a little hope that I can get the spring fields rototilled but it's supposed to rain saturday night into sunday. I might do next weekend in PA too to get things planted but I'm not sure yet. Spring is approaching fast and I'm not prepared. I'm more concerned about the spring crops because they need to get in the ground so they grow before it gets too hot, but getting in the field can be difficult when it's wet. I'm also still shuffling around some things in the field.
I also have incredible timing, I ordered the nice underwear and got it tuesday right as my period was starting so I'm holding off wearing it until my period is done.

Date: 2019-03-28 11:57 am (UTC)i have a hockey stick somewhere, i wonder if it's in IT IS I KNOW IT'S IN MY ATTIC RAFTERS ! i think it's left-handed though, i went through a Phase. (listen, i'm what's technically known as a Confused Ambidextrous, we're actually entirely useless.)
Also I thought the venison meatloaf and dog shenanigans were related for a moment, and i was like oh right yes meatloaf will definitely assist in dog shenanigwait a minute. no. right.
I need to go back to bed. or take some cold medicine. or. i don't know. It's not a pretty scene, here.
I love that you call it A's farm and I will never ever tell Zack. :) Say hi to the A Team for me. (And Zack, of course.) I am in suspense about their piglet situation but afraid to ask. Let me know if you can find out, lol.
I am stymied in my plans to come out to the farm by my dude having helpfully bought concert tickets that line up exactly with when i was going to leave next. boo. but i also am painfully aware that Spring Is Coming and it's probably going to obnoxiously come all at once and suddenly, and it's going to go instantly from Too Early Can't Plant Yet to Too Late Missed Your Chance Better Luck Next Year, and the farm still isn't fully staffed, and I have no idea when/how I'm going to get that yurt up.

Date: 2019-03-28 05:27 pm (UTC)I forgot to tell them hi for you, but most of the team was out and about, it was Anne around for a few minutes first thing and then Zack came back as I was heading out the door. Otherwise just me and Aaron hanging in the greenhouse, seeding things. I'll try and get a piglet update tomorrow.
