Saturday's this and that


  • went to the grocery store at noon-time and it wasn't as crowded as i figured it'd be
  • chicken curry for dinner
  • we'll have quiche tomorrow night
  • thought you might like to know---just imagining what we'd be eating
  • lame
  • gary bought me the september issue of the british 'country living' last night
  • i'm saving it for later
  • got into reading 'the painted bridge' by wendy wallace and it's goooood
  • story about a woman in the mid-1800's who's committed to an asylum by her awful husband who's a minister
  • the thing is, she's not insane, at least i don't think she is
  • a bit zingy feeling today---won't go away---must be my adrenal glands are suffering over-use
  • we heard a loud BANG last night at around 2am
  • gary went outside, but couldn't see anything going on
  • middle daughter was swinging in the backyard this morning and noticed that our next-door neighbor has a smashed back window, and his iron door is bent (possible source of my zingy feeling)
  • ick
  • will leave it up to gary to call the police when he gets back from his workshop
  • our neighbor isn't home, and rarely is
  • he's the one i spoke of last summer who's a paranoid schizophrenic
  • i realize it sounds rude to call someone that, but it's a true diagnosis, and he's very unpredictable
  • mental illness is so sad----i'm a melancholy, but that's nothing compared to what our neighbor lives with
  • will go now---looking forward to church tomorrow---last confirmation class
  • we'll get a tour of the sanctuary with a lesson on what the layout/decorations represent---a history lesson in itself
  • i love that church, and anglicanism as well
  • feels like home, even though it's different than anything i've ever experienced
  • as for you---remember to chill out---and i'll do the same
