bean is on doctor-ordered two weeks' time off from work. On the one hand, she will be in less pain; & on the same hand, she has time to do things like cook up batches of chickpeas while I am at work; but on the other hand, I am never going to be able to read anything ever again, because I will not have any time alone.
On that first hand, though, probably a lot more sanctioned napping. What with the prescribed narcotics & all.

I was especially careful not to hit either of the Monarch butterflies that were also careening round & round the lot.
"Don't worry about the butterflies!" Jeff said.
"I think they might be endangered!" I said right back.
