Got a bit more sleep, today, while everyone was milling around, getting that radiator hose fixed. I needed it, and it helped. Totally helped me not to skimp on my workout, too. Much needed, as I'd gotten lazy.

Got a bunch of laundry hand-washed in my bathroom sink, as well - as the laundrymat will be a luxury in these next two weeks. Can't buy food, either, but can get by on my stocked-ups, with crackers instead of bread, etc. - and am very thankful for the ham I've had in the freezer, for an 'emergency' - it's amazing how creative one gets when pressed. I reallyREALLYreally hate to use my stock (especially the powdered/boxed milk, dated pre-3/11), but have no choice. THANK GOD FOR OATMEAL, lol!

I DID, however, splurge and make a lovely chocolate-chip cookie cake with homemade buttercream icing for DJ - heh - he loved the idea that it can be flavoured with almost anything, and how easy it was to make, and learning how one CAN make substitutions for eggs, etc. in a pinch. Gonna miss that butter, but, oh, well. My, 'Magic Bullet' makes ace powdered raw sugar, btw. :)

Wish I had money to get those aforementioned tomato plants, and more burdock root/milkthistle, but, alas.

This scares me:

Let's just hope that there's no more earthquake activity, starting a chain-reaction, especially given that the island itself is apparently sinking. Cheese and effin' rice.

Even moreso, and heartbreaking: http://crisisjones.wordpress.com/
