Tuesday orientation and meeting
Aug. 26th, 2025 11:00 pmToday was A.’s orientation, starting at 8:30 and going to 1:30. I warned them that arriving at the beginning was unlikely because she was still jetlagged. We did get her there at 10:30. She ate pizza they provided for lunch, so her lunch came back home. I went home in between dropping her off and picking her up, and did the OAC / MEPFP in the car (mostly in the parking lot). She ate her lunch minus the sandwich for dinner, along with the wings and steaks that R. cooked, so in a weird miracle we all kind of ate dinner at roughly the same time and mostly the same stuff.
Meeting went well. I forgot to send the blondies I’d made. Ooops. I did remember to send the check.
R. stopped at Pearl City Antiques and picked up a Cushman’s rock maple lamp table for the guest bedroom (now and future) and also a chemistry table (to be repurposed as not quite a kitchen island in the future house). He needs to figure out how to get the chem resistant surface to stay put. We have a long list of ideas for how to do that or to replace it with something that doesn’t curl up as aggressively. My pneumatic stool fits under it, which is nice; I will be able to sit and work if I want to. Yay! Better than a “real” island or even the cart I had planned.
I had a delightful phone call with A.
