Welcome to Silver and Shadow

"Look at that sea, girls--all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds." -L.M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables

This is a blog I will be using for topics other than food. Politics, religion, spirituality, humor, green living, anything that I want to talk about that doesn't fall under the food/cooking category.

Today I Went to Work: July 27, 2020

I couldn't sleep very well last night and ended up waking up early. I would normally not do this, but I wanted to see how much I was facing and maybe get a head start, so I fired up the work laptop and logged in to check out the in-box. It wasn't too bad, but I got things uploaded and ready to go before shutting it down again and trying, unsuccessfully, to get back to sleep. I'm pretty tired today!

I spent another full day at the office and didn't finish everything, so I'll go back in tomorrow too. If I don't get too much new stuff, I'll probably only need a few hours to half the day. Then I'll go home and work remotely the rest of the day. Depending on how hot it is and what time it is, etc, I may overshoot the bus stop and go to the Pike Place Market to pick up some birthday goodies.

My parents stopped by to drop off my birthday present, so I have something fun to look forward to tomorrow. Rumor has it my sister has a present for me too! I finally got the gift card my friend from New York got me for the Pickle Guys. I had to email them, and one of the employees called me back today and I spoke to him and got it all figured out. They should be here Wednesday or Thursday and the gift card covered the cost of their 2-qt special! I'll be trying out their half-sours and full-sours. I can't wait! That's definitely a fun birthday present!

It is soooo hot today! Dinner tonight was "clean out the fridge" on a plate. Nothing worthy to note. We watched an episode of The Office, and then moved onto The Good Place, only to learn the hard way that there are only three of the four seasons of The Good Place currently available there. I've seen the series before but I feel bad that my sister has to wait until whenever they put up the last season to see how the show ends. Onto Hey Dude for the rest of the evening unless there's enough time for me to finish the night with an episode of Highway to Heaven. I hope I get a good night's sleep tonight...!
