Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm pretty sure no one can do a deep clean of the whole house in a weekend.

Well done!

I wonder if I can find something like a pot roast recipe with Mediterranean flavors that I can use for my goat shoulder. That sounds good.

Oh, crap, time to wash more dishes.

How Mediterranean? I had a Provencal beef stew in Paris that had olives in it. And gnocchi, but I feel like regular potatoes would have been at least as good.

I was thinking like that cinnamon-cardamom-cumin sort of flavor profile? Olives do sound good, though.

I wish I could tell you anything else about the stew I had! But otherwise, it was pretty regular stew flavor, with mushrooms and carrots.

Well, I have a "classic pot roast" recipe that calls for mushroom and carrots that I can probably adapt and throw into the crockpot tomorrow. Maybe I'll, like, rub the goat with spices beforehand.

I love anything that is dry rub, frankly. If you have a herbes de provence, then your stew might taste vaguely mediterranean?

Shot given two hours ago. This medicine hurts for a bit after, which is no good.

I have an accreditation visit at school for which I co-wrote the accreditation report. It starts tomorrow. As does the bit of cookie boothing I'm supposed to do.

I cannot tell you how exhausted I am. I just have to make it through Tuesday.

I've been watching Disney movies in my room since I last posted and the tension is finally leaving my body. I think this is the first day in a while that I wore my boot all day and was doing stuff all day. Normally while I work I take my boot off since I'm not walking.

Tomorrow is packing, Costco (already confirmed that they have electric carts), and then making some freezer meals. I can do a fair bit of that sitting, so I'm going to try to be easier on myself.

Tuesday is close...you can DO IT!!!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Depends on your definition of "clean", I suppose.
