Bow Tie Tuesday
Well, I went ahead and put on a tie. So I'm in lock-down, sorta. It's still Bow Tie Tuesday. It's the stuff-upper-lip kind of thing to do, right? This one's one of the $2 ties I got at the big end of '19 sale. One of the few I still hadn't broken out yet.
The picture's taken by my laptop, not my phone at my desk at the office. I was videochatting right after that. Then I moved back into the dining room, which is where I've been home-officing. I can look out a window there. The even-better window for looking down the street is at my desk in the bedroom, and I have a fairly big monitor in there. Gotta check whether I can get it up to speed browser- and OS-wise. If so I might buy a replacement keyboard, since the one in there won't let me type ) or 0. And you need 0 to do my job.
I felt a lot less glum today, and less anxious, particularly after I took a nice walk in the middle of the afternoon. It'll be tempting to go on long walks, and I guess I can work around that. Added a break reminder app to Chrome. Looks like I'm going to need it here even more than I do at work. Something to get me up and moving around.
The cats are liking me being home. Had the windows open for them a lot today. It was maybe 45 degrees F out there. Possibly a tad warmer at the apex.
