I meant to reply earlier, but the afternoon disappeared once I started sorting through the closet by the front door. I finally got rid of a pile of old scarves, a bent umbrella, and a notebook I had been carrying around for no reason.

I also tried that soup recipe again and it turned out much better this time. Letting it simmer a little longer made all the difference, and I added extra herbs because it still tasted flat. It felt nice to make something simple and not overthink it.

If tomorrow stays quiet, I want to take a longer walk before lunch and maybe stop by the library. I have two books that are overdue in spirit, even if nobody is chasing me for them. I keep renewing them and then forgetting to actually finish either one.

Review & Claim Reward

Thank you for being part of Ace Hardware.

This member notification was sent in response to a current loyalty recognition update.

I checked the weather again and it keeps changing by the hour, so I gave up trying to plan anything too specific. I may just keep it simple and tidy up the desk, because paper somehow multiplies when I ignore it for a few days.

I finally repotted that plant I told you about. The roots were packed so tightly that I was surprised it had lasted that long without complaining. It looks happier already, or maybe I just feel better after dealing with it.

I also found the playlist you mentioned and listened to it while making dinner. It was exactly the kind of background I needed, calm without being sleepy. If you have another one with the same mood, send it over when you get a chance. I am clearly in a phase where quiet music and slightly organized shelves feel like big progress.
