Largely off'a coffee

 I think I've been drinking far too much coffee so I started my day with a cup and that was it. I can drink soda, tea, miso broth, lime water, etc. through the rest of the day and evening. 

I woke up at around 2 in the afternoon but didn't have to get up a time or two to pee so that's probably the lack of coffee already working for me. 

I packed the big order, about 27 small things and all checked off on a handwritten list because computers can't be trusted with important things. And I packed three other things, all large-ish or large boxes to go to FedEx. I also took a long thin fibreglas pole with a hook on the end I had around here (one of a set of three that screw together, for reaching wires or something) and sharpened the hook and on the other end, screwed on a couple of nuts and put a piece of heat-shrink tubing on to make a sort of a handle or at least make it a bit less slippery to hold onto. 

I ran the stuff up to FedEx and got a few things in H Mart, and on the way back tried my new toy out on what had inspired me to make it: a box with lots of nice padding in it that I couldn't reach yesterday. It worked great. 

I got back here with my goodies, put things away, and it was still only 6. So I rode out again to Nijiya. I wanted to get some beef and instant miso and other odds and ends and at least it will feel a bit like I got to go out and do something this weekend. Now I'm all stocked up to be rained in for the week. 

But it hasn't been rainy, in fact it's been bizarrely warm. It was 75 yesterday and in the upper 60s today. Today I wore my pale yellow, very thin, jacket and short sleeves under it. I know we can have a very wet March and April, but so far it's almost summer-y out there.
