I\’m going traditional today!

For years, I did my laundry after work on Wednesdays. Since the pandemic began, that pattern has shifted.

I got very tired by the end of the day on weekdays. Other things kept me busy: cooking; meal planning; and logging not only what I ate; but calories and carbs as well. Even when I worked from home all week, that was a bit much. It still is.

I wound up doing laundry on Sunday afternoons! This time, I didn\’t even get to it on Sunday.

Thus I\’m going traditional; and did my washing today, Monday. I\’ve been off of work for a whole week, and that meant less of a load; especially as cool-to-cold weather means I can use the same blouse for several days.

The job took about an hour and a half. Partway through, I had to grab a half-ounce of mozzarella cheese to hold me over until I could finish; and then I fixed a salad: two cups of mixed salad greens (purchased at the salvage store); half an avocado, sliced; a half-cup of Bald Eagle; with a tablespoon of mild green taco sauce; a chopped scallion; and sliced, garlic-stuffed olives as topping. It was worth the effort.

Now then, what shall I do this afternoon? Go for a ride? I already rode to the supermarket this morning; but that was only about seven miles; and the weather is great for a spin on the levee right now.
