In the past week:

I have completed two pairs of mittens. I have edited samples of songs to go on the website. I have eaten lots of sharp cheddar cheese made a few miles down the road, plus a little bit of bacon from right down the road, and have helped to finish what was supposed to be a year's supply of tamarind candy. I have shoveled snow. I have slept in. I have rubbed anti-fungal lotion into a teenager's feet. I have said "bless you" three dozen times a day to my allergic boyfriend.

I have watched Buffy. I have carried wood.

I have been happy.
