February 20th...2 more days on this month's cc cycle, 8 more days in the month. And four more days until my birthday. I'll be making one more trip to the grocery store, but I want to make sure that I take a good hard look at what is already here in the house beforehand. We went out for lunch today with a group of people from our UU church. It was about $16 for the three of us. We do this once a month, and it's usually fun. Today I am so tired though that I would rather have just stayed at home. Oh well. I was in bed from early Friday night until about 5:30 yesterday evening with a migraine, so today I am wiped out. If I'm lucky I'll be able to grab a nap today.

I used the dryer earlier this week, but by and large I'd say I've line dried over 90% of our laundry this month. That is a big improvement over my old habits of line-drying things that ought not be dried in the dryer, and using the clothesline on only the nicest of days. Having the drying rack indoors has really made a difference. I've also made the switch to washing nearly exclusively in cold water and haven't noticed any change in the cleanliness of our clothes.

I'm about halfway done with a new scarf that I'm knitting. It is soooo soft. I can't decide if I should try to sell it, or just keep it. I'll likely try to sell it, and if it doesn't sell after a few months, I'll take it down and keep it for myself, or keep it to give as a gift.

I've been keeping the heat down to 66* during the day during the week, and I don't think I've really noticed a difference. Sometimes I turn on the wall heater in the dining room while tutoring, but other than that DD and I seem to be fine. Well, she is - she runs warmer than me anyway.
