I made a major inroad on the kitchen feralness situation. I may have pushed myself a little into the dreaded Overdo Zone, but the chaos over there was getting on my nerves and I'm glad I got it at least sort-of sorted. Now there's some serious dish-drainer Jenga chaos going on in there, but at least it's all sanitary and the chaos consolidated into just a few piles; that's enough to pacify said nerves so that's enough for me. 🤣

My kitchen reached a distressing level of feral while I was laid up with the tummy weirdnesses, so I'm now cautiously working to de-feral it without invoking the dreaded Overdoing and sending myself on another round of feeling ick.

As my GI tract continues to get back to behaving itself and my appetite begins to return, I'm resorting to this quick-and-dirty congee-thing I often make when feeling out of sorts.

Wasn't quite as recovered yesterday as I thought - was still dealing with nausea, gas, and difficulty finding a body position that didn't aggravate matters. Finally got some solid sleep in me last night and am gently moving forward with more tea and some congee. And rest - bod is exhausted from this shit.

Ugh, managed to kick my GI tract into one of its favorite failure modes yesterday - heartburn, nausea, gut pain, all the fun things. Spent a mostly-sleepless night but seem to have it back under control at this point, though I sticking to tea and oatmeal till I'm sure things have settled down.

Despite panic attacks over recalcitrant door locks, I managed to get some cooking done. Cool-weather dishes are really my favorites.

A better shot of the roses and other flowering things going into overdrive here in this lovely little park.

Pleased to see that the rose trellises have filled out nicely since last I stopped by this park. Also neat to see there are tours of the fleurs 🌹
And also neat to be able to see through my windshield for a change (though the pine resin is still resistant) 😖

Out and about for a rare two-days-in-row venturing out of the Lair, to take care of more medical stuff. Feels like I spent most of the summer hiding from smoke, heat, and germs; and now here's the trees starting to turn already. Ah well.
#drivebyphotography #spoonielife #queerspoonie
Alas, the remaining crunchiness of the air began to get to me, so I have retreated to my lair with noms for my efforts.

Between the heat wave and the wildfire smoke, it's been something like two weeks since I last made it out of my lair and over to my favorite accessible riverside hang. The temperature is actually quite delightful for a change, so I'll put up with the still somewhat crunchy air.

Alas, my CrankyBod, the impending hot weather, the uptick in local COVID cases, and the mobility access challenges all convinced me not to stress myself out trying to attend my city's Pride fest today, so I'm showing my pride at home (as I always do anyway).

A couple of hours and a bunch of chopping and sauteeing and seasoning and simmering later, and we have your basic batch of ratatouille, which will be lovely tonight and even better after sitting in the fridge overnight.

Still life with ratatouille makings: my main project for the afternoon.

Wow. My back has been most decidedly Not Amused by yesterday's gallivantings about town, however brief. So today I have slithered back into the underbrush to finish nursing my aching sacroiliac. 😜

The outdoor temp and my CrankyBod<tm> both started acting up, so I retreated to my lair with some comfort takeout. Am now huddled in front of the computer once again with the A/C trained upon me, feeling the edible slowly but surely coming on. Time for a nice therapeutic evening of gaming while stoned. 😸

Glad I had an appointment to get me out of the lair, or else I would have missed all this lovely sunshine at my favorite accessible riverside hang.

I have once again achieved escape velocity from the lair, and am taking some sun and caffeine at my favorite accessible riverside hang. Not shown: a number of adorable doggos out walking their humans. 😎

The hot weather is not ideal for cooking big pots of whatever, but I managed to knock out another batch of ratatouille without giving myself heatstroke 🤣

Snatching some time at my favorite accessible riverside hang in between needful errands on a relatively cooler day. Feels like it's been a couple of weeks since last I ventured out of my little lair. That's probably not the best thing for my mental health, but so it goes.
