Sucessful nap
Much warmer again, finally. Calm and now grey. 36F/2C. Didn't wear long underwear for the grocery shopping. Didn't even zip up my jacket. Think I'll take a nap.

Okay. finally sat down and finished up my spreadsheet for 2026. I've stripped everything that's relatively painless to strip, and my projected income looks it will be larger than my projected expenses by about $85. Fingers crossed.

Jordanes makes the Catalaunian fields into a real set piece. Full display of filial piety on the battlefield.
And looking ahead, one short prose piece, the life of St. Genevieve. Then Gregory of Tours' history of the Franks!

And rolling on Latin. The "biblical epic" based on the acts of the apostles has turned out to be a commentary and not a narrative. Once I figured that out, it's been relatively easy reading.

It's only made it up to 18F/-8C. Lot of sun, but a lot of wind too. Tuesday we're supposed to get above freezing again. I'm ready

It's clouded over. But I finished a last piece of deskwork. A responsibility I have kept hanging over my head for unconscionably long. Til the last minute, really. And maybe a little longer than that. A relief. Nothing but Latin awaiting me now
