Had a new acupuncture/ massage guy who worked on my lower back to the point that it stopped screaming for a bit. It's only 45 minutes because 45 minutes of his time is the same as an hour of Swedish massage, but if he manages to release things, I will live with that. Mind, I should take his advice about drinking a lot of water afterwards and using a heating pad for 20 minutes, but instead had a latte and a bagel at the Christie café.
Then made slow cooked beef stew from a Guardian recipe. You're supposed to use a bottle of red wine but I used half a bottle of white, which was what I had, and cook on the stovetop for 90 minutes, but I gave it another half hour. By which time everything had boiled away, but that's ok. I'm partial to caramelized veg. Top with parmesan, which I don't have and actually don't much like, but got an old end of swiss cheese from the cheese drawer and grated that. Dinner for the next few days done and dusted.
Kind city sent me the form for tax rebate etc. which I filled out, chuffed that the two pieces of paper needed were ready to hand. City wants me to apply online and says Hey if you do, you don't need to send us a copy of your tax statement with your income on line 1500. Am half-tempted, because the rain has kept me from getting to any place with a photocopier, but mh. I don’t trust me to fill in all the numbers correctly: the tax rolls and water rates IDs run to an awful lot of zeroes.
