Hello again Margaret

Whew.  Ok, I stopped blogging again.  I'm not doing too good with eating, I'm not doing too good with exercising, and work is...omg work is crazy.  It's like working as fast as possible all day to get stuff done and still having more at the end of the day than I started with.

BUT other stuff is happening.  Most of the parts I need to run my c-pap machine via battery and solar power are on their way here, and we got a bunch of stuff from costco that we're going to need for Burning Man.  We have a list, and we will be spending weekends sourcing and packing from now til then, so I think that'll be ok.

Greg will be happy to know we procured a sturdy bucket and lid.

We decided not to make a hexayurt.  I found some tough reflective sheeting though that I hope to heavy spring clamp onto whatever tent we get in hopes of a darker cooler sleeping spot.  I have not figured out tent or bedding.  I hate sleeping bags, they make me feel claustrophobic. How many comforters would I have to bring in lieu of sleeping bags?  I have a lot of comforters, but they're bulky to pack.

Clothes is proving to be a pain in the ass!  I need to find light cotton pants and stuff.  The only pants I have are work slacks, y'all, and I can't find any that are right in a flowy cotton style.  I have a sewing machine, but I'm kind of shitty at sewing and fabric is expensive too.  Shoes, oh shoes.  I need good shoes but I want pretty shoes.  I need hiking boots but I want go go boots.

On another note, I've got a counseling appointment Thursday.  Please send kind thoughts to the poor intern that gets my business!

  1. For comforters, I haven't been to burning man but I've lived outside since Feb and it's more than two.
