Another Week Starts with Another List

 Top of this list is to finish unloading the car before the end of Tuesday. We are down to puppets and towers and a table we use to display the puppets and a few kits for sewing and cosplay that need to be sorted out.

 

I need to remember to add masking tape to the table kit and a pair of scissors.

 

Then another round of cat boxes. It is just two cats, however they make good use of their kitty potties.

 

I learned today that I am not a Virgo but a Leo and there is a constellation called  that was removed from the Zodiac because the Babylonians wanted only twelve to go with their calendar. It is due to Earth wobble over the past two thousand years. The zodiac constellations have moved in that time or rather we have moved. It is an amazing article in the New York Times today. Probably explains why the hat keeps dumping me into Gryffindor. The dumped Zodiac sign was called Opliuchus (Nov 30-Dec 17). Unlocked article below.

Tomorrow, I have early work then going to go grocery shopping to fill the larder. I am out of a few of the basics like jam and paprika and heading to having no coffee in the house. 

 

I am grateful for articles that spark my imagination.

Progress!

Masking tape is super useful and comes in several colors.

I remember when new scientific discoveries used to drive a gush of story submissions after them, and a few months to a year later, those would hit the magazines. People seem to have quit doing that, alas. But I'm always open to it in any relevant prompt call -- folks can give me a link to a cool article and I'll do something with it.
