A Better Day

Good morning, Amanda.

I am in a much better mood today...I ended up writing quite a bit last night. It would be inaccurate to say I channeled my negative energy there, more like I pushed the negative aside and focused on the positive. I knew it was a waste of energy to stew about the principal being prickish, and I actually did have things to look forward to, so I wrote about them. I feel much better.

Speaking of things to look forward to, I would like to get a little more concrete about plans to visit. First, are you and J headed out here to visit with his family as you thought you might during one of the vacations coming up? And second, what is your summer like? Will you be spending the beginning in California as you typically do? Does August look like the better month for me to come visit? Suddenly I feel like I have to have all my ducks in a row....I just booked a trip to San Diego for April and would like to think about Seattle next.

It definitely looks like a storm tonight and tomorrow, so I decided that having to reschedule my ob-gyn tomorrow isn't the end of the world. They'll prescribe more pills or not. Rather than stress about it, I'd rather look forward to a snow day in the middle of the week. I'll bring home my midterms and purple pen, stop on my way home for Prosecco, and go from there. It's all good.

Sounds like you had a great day all around--lunching and shopping, then skating. I'm glad (and I'd love to try that restaurant if we have the time!).

If I'm snowed in tomorrow, maybe we can talk??....

Love,
Barb
