Transitions

I do not want to say that I am getting older, but... today I did not exactly have the vim and vigor I expected.  I will note that Friday night I must have passed out on the living room about midnight, as it was 5AM when I woke up to the lights on, etc.  Oi.  Very embarrassing.  And yes, I brushed my teeth and went back to bed.  Anyways, today it was Mass/gym and then I decided to try and go to the Greek Festival in North Royalton.  I arrived at 11:15 (opens at 11) and it was...sparse, which was good.  I ended up taking it home -- lamb shank, green beans, and rice pudding.  $23.  It was... good.  Decent portions, though I am not sure it is worth $23.  Course, I have lamb shank but once a year, and I maybe deserve it... 

Anyways, I got home, answered some emails, did some Excel training for work (I am going to do some of this during the week, I hope, as I want to start learning coding, in theory), finished watching the accumulated J! episodes from last week (it is embarrassing that I do not watch them live!), had dinner, and chilled.  I will finish book 28 for the year before I go to bed (another work on the end of WWI; I do get into phases about this subject, I admit), but... in some ways I should have done more.  I am tempted to schedule another culinary adventure/fun thing next weekend, despite the fact that I have many things to do... we will see, I guess.

My prediction of another pile of paperwork at the food pantry this morning was 100% correct.  To be sure, I was warned about it, but there is now a pile of checks to mail out and receipts to send Downtown.  Matt being Matt, all of the accounting stuff on my side (Downtown keeps the books, but I maintain a parallel copy, in a trust-but-verify moment).  I will admit that seeing beautifully maintained, up-to-date financials brings me not exactly pride, but a sense of serenity, that I have done my part on our side to keep order, at least.  Our clients...not so much.
