August 5: Doggos and Crochet

I took the day to myself and disconnected almost entirely, except for a few welcome Discord DMs. Felt a bit better today, but I think it'll be another day or two before I'm better.

I was planning on an early lunch because I forgot dinner the night before, again. I was still a bit groggy from sleep when I was preheating the oven for the pizza. I found out that, apparently, a lil burned smut in the oven was enough to set the fire alarm off when I opened the oven door to put the pizza on. That woke me up awfully fast There was no discernable smoke but I opened the patio door and it stopped pretty fast. I was ready for it when I took the pizza out of the oven, so the alarm only had a couple of screeeches before it stopped. The pizza was good, at least! A certain doggo was very interested in my lunch, but I wasn't going to share given the mental effort expended in making it!

I picked up my latest crochet project again, and frogged a couple of rows becasue I couldn't make the pattern work. I think I got it sorted out though, with a few applications of artistic license. If I can be consistent with the things I've done, it should work up well. I might try to do some more on it, on Tuesday, but I need to be mindful of my silly hands.

We got through a good chunk of the show Call the Midwife. I perhaps should have gone for a different thing to watch, but I started and didn't want to leave it hanging. I probably won't be able to finish it while I'm here, but I might be able to end a season Tuesday so there's an end of sorts to wrap it up with.
