whimper

it's sad, almost surprising, that i didn't make any posts here in this blog the entire month of december, the end of the year especially.

the first part of the month i have a decent excuse for because mom was here and i spent all my extra time with her. but afterwards ... i suppose i was just recovering still. it was the first time i was alone since november one, so i had no one to fall back on except the cat.

still, i'm faced with all that month of blank space. i'll try and fill some with correspondence. we wrote back and forth to dad a lot because mom was here. maybe i didn't dump all of those messages yet. we'll see....

today so far i've made espresso, oatmeal, more espresso. plus a few odds and ends, like stopping in the bathroom, etc. plus i did the dishes and stuff. the oatmeal and espresso dishes. and for now, i think i'll go make some more espresso. then maybe i'll see if i can dig up some old correspondences.

oh, plus i'm gonna stop the bedroom door from banging. the wind is blustery today and it's a nice breeze but things are banging. so i gotta add some padding here and there.
