Three On Thursday

January 21, 2021 By Carole

I have a somewhat unusual day ahead of me, doing some things I don’t normally do. Since it’s Thursday I’ve decided to tell you about 3 of them.

  1. I’m attending a virtual municipal conference. Last year I attended this conference in Boston in person with my colleagues (both from the Board of Selectmen and from work) and Dale. It was informative and inspiring and FUN. This year the conference is virtual and I don’t anticipate having nearly as much fun. Still, I’m going to give it a go and participate and hopefully learn some things and get some insight.
  2. I’m having a baseline bone density test this afternoon. I know it’s a simple and painless procedure – you literally just lay down – and I’m glad my doctor ordered it. But. It also sort of means I’m officially old. Boo.
  3. I’m going to work on my One Little Word notebook. Now, on the one hand this is not unusual for me since I’ve been choosing One Little Word for quite a few years now. What is unusual, however, is that I’ve decided to actually follow the prompts from Ali Edwards and create a journal of my experiences. I haven’t done this part of the process since 2017 and I’m looking forward to playing with paper and stamps and pens and documenting my process.

And that’s my day ahead in a nutshell. If you wrote a post for today I hope you will add your link below!

P.S. Yesterday was a very, very good day.

    Have fun! (or at least make it fun!) And YES to yesterday! AMAZING!

    I loved the bone density test! (What’s not to like about wearing sweatpants and lying down?!) Yesterday was wonderful, and today is pretty good so far, too. I love waking up without an overwhelming feeling of worry and dread!

    I am planning to work on my OLW pages today too. It will be my first time with the official kit and album. Check in on me and see if I actually put pen to paper – I have a fear of the blank page!

    I did a small group retreat over Zoom in the fall, with a year-long group I participate in. While I felt way more connected to my peers than I’d expected to, I think what I missed most were the snacks & constantly refreshed coffee carafe!

    Your socks should get some knitting action during the meeting right? And yesterday was a great day indeed.

    As the getting-old tests go, I’d have a completely easy and painless bone density test any day over things like mammograms and colonoscopies!

    I hope the conference is still interesting and useful even if it’s not as exciting because it’s all online. Perhaps you can work on prettying up your journal while you listen!

    I have heard about those baseline bone density tests and thought maybe I should get one. Hope yours turns out well.

    Seems old age is in the air today. I started blood pressure medication today. I feel ancient!

    The bone density test is going to be the easiest medical test you ever do! Sounds like a busy day, Carole, hope it is more fun that than you think. Yes, yesterday was just fabulous, and I am over the moon.

    Hmmm… I should ask my new doctor about a bone density test. Glad you posted about it!

    Yea, virtual conferences are just not the same, but on the other hand they’ll never know what you really have in that coffee mug or whether or not you are wearing pants! Old, now that’s a dirt three letter word.

I’ve been making sourdough bread for over 2 year I’ve been making sourdough bread for over 2 years now (I started before the pandemic, ironically enough) and this might just be one of my best loaves. The dough was sluggish yesterday and not ready to be proofed when I went to bed so I stuck the plastic bucket in the fridge and hoped for the best. Turns out the overnight bulk fermentation resulted in a beautiful, bouncy dough. I can’t wait to cut into it and check out the crumb but it’s still cooling down. #sourdoughbread #imadeitmyself #homemadeisbest #breadbaker
