so, last night i did indeed do 1 of the 2 urgent things i needed to do. i'm settling in for the evening now, so i will hopefully finish the other one tonight (it's making something for zine club!)
according to the weather report, today is supposed to be the last super hot day of this heat wave. i am looking forward to more reasonable temperatures and being able to work outside again tomorrow.
after work today, i went to the yoga studio and worked the front desk, but i didn't participate in the class because i still have pain from my strain at the gym yesterday.
then i came back home and did a tiny bit more work on the basement cleaning project. it's slowly becoming a slightly less horribly disgusting situation down there. there is still a lot to do to make it a usable space, but i'm pretty sure that i've put a stop to all the active water damage, so that seems like it will help a lot.
