Stuff I did:
- 4.25 hours of consulting
- 2.5 hours of business development planning
- My husband got assaulted standing up to a belligerent guy accosting the gas station clerk on Friday night — he’s ok but pepper spray takes a lot of cleaning up 😔 He couldn’t see to drive home so the police gave him a lift, hopefully our car hasn’t been towed 🤞
- Headed up to the mountains for a picnic day on Thursday 🥪🌲
- Kickoff meeting with an accountability group for a 12-week year plan and developed the plan
- Borrowed a pressure washer from a neighbor on Buy Nothing, but it didn’t work 😔
- Weeded twice for 45 minutes total
- Walked twice with friends
- Went to Homebrew Website Club
- Figured out a trip plan for a family wedding and booked a motel
- Realized I had our emergency fund cash sitting in a savings account getting 0.6% interest when I have a money market account getting 2.5% 🤦♀️ so I shifted it over
- Updated my backlog with tasks floating in my head and scratch paper notes floating on my desk
Dinners:
- Braised potatoes from The Korean Vegan cookbook and rice
- Two pea pasta
- Broccoli red pepper quiche (with premade crust)
- Bean bowl (aka a can of chili beans, avocado, sour cream and tortilla chips 😉)

- Thai 😍 from the really good place 😋 Found a $50 gift card from before the pandemic! 💪

- Started reading Her Big City Neighbor by Jackie Lau
- DNF’d Magician by K.L. Noone, Married by Scandal by Tessonja Odette, and The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction by Alan Jacobs (it would appear I already agree with the premise)

Words I looked up:
Website Changes:
