Curl Up and Dye

I requested the book that inspired Nomadland from the library.

Had my "loaded" oatmeal with butter, bananas, and almonds. It was good and filling.

Gloomy day. They're expecting rain later, which might put the kibosh on my plan to weed and thin the lettuce. It might be easier to do after the rain though. Hmm, a Web site that I read said to wait to thin until the lettuce is a little taller.

One of my legs started hurting while I was cleaning out litter boxes. I lay down for a nap, but it hurt too much to sleep, so I took acetaminophen, and now I'm waiting for it to kick in.

One of my cats barfed on a library book. Terrific.

Finally the acetaminophen kicked in, and I was able to nap. Had a good nap with Zara.

I decided that dyeing my hair with the new color was a good rainy-day task. Right now, I'm doing a strand test. It looked okay, so I'm doing the full color. It looks good, but I expected it to have more of an ash tone, but it is going over the old color. Maybe I want a darker color next time? I sent eSalon a message to send me a darker color next time.

Talked to Mom. She sounded upbeat. She's now thinking that I should visit in late June instead of July. I'll have to think if I can pull that off. Money for the train and pet sitter might be an issue, but maybe I could book it in mid-June?

I'm going to go to bed early. Oops, after studying Italian.
