Okay, I must confess--I fell asleep. just like YKWIA predicted, in the comfy chair

Listening to: Vision: the Music of Hildegarde of Bingen

But since I woke up I have taken out the recyclables and trash, despite having to go a circuitous route due to the construction, have gathered all the CDs and put them on the rack. The books are on the shelf I have dubbed, 'waiting for placement' (that's a health care term, according to a friend who used to work in it, for patients in the hospital waiting to go onto nursing homes). I still have a few things to put away, and I need to dust, but the place looks so much better. I'm burning some lavender incence and listening to mediaeval lyrics put to a somewhat New Age-y type of music. It's very relaxing.

It's enough for now. I'll finish the rest tomorrow. Let's go see the news and see if there's anything other than the Casey Anthony verdict out there.
