Learned a Lot Today
After my last post, I did half of my homework assignment, created some Spanish flash cards, and watched the last episode of The Crown. I don't know what I'm going to watch now. Had some snuggle time with Zara and Mimi. Stayed up late reading.
Woke up at 9:30, which was a little early, but decided to get up. Read part of The Economist during breakfast. I'm determined to finish it this week. (It's about 80 pages.)
Took a nap and overslept by an hour.
Found an excellent investing podcast called InvestED. In it, a hedge fund manager explains the principles of value investing in terms that his daughter, who isn't into investing, can understand. It's excellent, although it moves slow, but that actually is a good thing. I ordered their book from the library.
Cleaned the kitchen, including scrubbing the floor.
Threw myself together and ran to Aldi's to pick up some frozen stuff because I knew that I wouldn't have time to make Beef-a-roni with the veggie beef. Bought some extra stuff because I was hungry. Downed some garlic French bread pizza. Realized that I wouldn't have time for a walk.
Went to work for my online Spanish lesson. The first 15 minutes, I was unable to hear him and sometimes couldn't see him. Then it worked. He really kept my feet to the fire and kept me speaking Spanish even though I didn't know anything. He assigned a pile of homework too. So I think that it was good, although I want to e-mail the company about the system problems. I'm going to schedule a lesson for next week. I just bought the books that I'll need for the homework.
Got home with a couple of minutes to spare to talk to Mom. She's doing okay, except that she had some minor car trouble, and there's a baby squirrel in the house. I hope that she can catch the squirrel in the humane trap.
Homework awaits. And I'm hungry again. x-posted from Dreamwidth
