Artisan flour

Feels different, tastes different. Prefer it.

Here we go ...

Sure is an active market ... already folks wanting to see the house. Optimistic because both rejects were close. But in no hurry.

Aha!

Why do my spirits rise when house sales fall through?

The up side

I don't have to get into gear for moving yet!

And staying, mortgage goes down, house value goes up.

Here we go again

Sale fell through again. Know why and must deal with it, but this may change all plans. 2016 ends on complete uncertainty.

Superior

Just had slice of my artisan flour bread ... may be the most tasty slice I've ever eaten! A keeper, even at the expense.

Good feeling

Definitely eager to renew ukulele skills. Nice to play yesterday after so long.

Ah me ah me

This transition sucks. Sure hope the end is in sight.

I sure wish H wasn't a pack rat. Could be damn easier.

The final hour

We should have a deal, a bit below asking price. House built in 1936, elec and plumbing freak out inspectors, though no probs in 20 years.

More financial challenges ahead than I prefer. I think it's important to get out of here now.

Crossed fingers.

Once again

Renegotiating price after inspection. Ah, me.

Ukulele

Played favorite two songs after weeks away, not too bad. Good muscle memory. Get into regular practice at R.

A good day

Need one! Relaxed, a few chores, baking, watched a movie, forgot about car. Like Thurs and Fri to be the same.

Dough

I mix bread dough a loaf at a time, and it only has a few days in refrig before I use it. Therefore mixing special batch for 14 days before using, see if it has the sourdough taste as book claims.

Great spring rise this morning. Trying new KA artisan flour. Expensive ... But curious.

LATER. Outstanding bread! Special flour for special occasions?

Eager to make frequent loaves in Russellville.

Signature scoring

Looking for my own scoring image on loaves. Not easy to create. Will try some.

Renewal

Found my second wind and hanging in again.

Will get second opinion on car. Maybe repair for Harriet. I look forward to not driving.

Baking bread, of course. Sanest activity in my life. Bread makes more sense to the old man than literature does.

Inspection was very short this time. Meaning?

Will fill out R forms today.

Nice to be feeling better. More positive.

Killing time

... while house inspected. A drag. Especially in a dying car, with the dog. At SB presently. Tick tock.

I'm vegetating rest of year, I hope!

Stress City

What's next?
