Happy Solstice!

I did some rearranging today, that has been in the works for a little while. I replaced the “smart” power strip on one side of the bed with a Not Smart power cube. It gives me as many slots as the previous strip (of various sorts, not just power slots), and I’ve switched the bulbs in lamps plugged into the Thing to be “smart”, so they no longer need to be controlled with the strip but can be controlled more directly (and in a more nuanced way). I’m experimenting with Amazon Basics Tunable White bulbs.

I got the cube from the other side of the bed, and I pulled the purple 3 in 1 foldable charger out of the travel kit and set it up by the bed. I’ll probably acquire a second one of these OR some other 3 in 1. The Belkin wireless charger was nice, but it was tricky getting the phone lined up correctly on it. A wireless charger for the phone is awesome, because I don’t pick it up forgetting it is connected to a wire and wind up knocking things over. But there are a lot of options in this space.

We ran out of box pancake mix, so I’ve been making scratch pancakes for A. They are turning out really well, altho I can’t eat them because I’ve been putting milk in them and cooking them in butter. They smell great tho.

ETA:

A.’s course schedule for next year mostly set. Woot!
