My Super Power

So after 25 days at sea it’s time for everyone to do some laundry. Unfortunately when rolling back and forth it isn’t good for the washing machine to be used. I guess it’s suppose to be balanced and stable for use πŸ€·‍♀️


The grunge is probably my biggest irritation. We have lots of water so mandatory showers onboard. Now I’ll have to see if I can rally the troops to wash the one or two shirts and shorts they wear πŸ˜‚. Wish me luck πŸ€ž


In such a small space it doesn’t take long for smells to travel. I can suss out rotting veg and smelly towels like nobodies business. My super power lol.  


Well what better to counteract the bad smells than the smell of cinnamon buns cooking. Sometimes as I sit on watch I just gaze at the sea and dream of food lol. I had these buns on the brain so I started the dough at 6 am. They were so good. 


I ate …and I’m ashamed to admit it…4.5 of them. The problem with this being a long passage is that my “go for it. You deserve it. You are on passage” mentality just keeps on ticking. I’m hooked on the snacks now πŸ˜‚. Luckily Graham forces steel cut oats on me most mornings with flax and chia. I call it GRUL πŸ€’


Well the night brought huge amounts of rain. So much rain. No wind though. I’m so happy……(yes I’m gonna sing my praises about the enclosure again)….that I got the enclosure finished. It is a serious game changer to stay dry!! Love it. Can’t wait to add the back piece. Looks like the wind should return this afternoon. For now I’m enjoying the sunrise and hoping my tea is delivered soon πŸ˜
