Good morning. Chilly again, 7 F and some windchill. Several wood screws in the back walkway popped as I walk out to drive Cara to school for an early morning make-up test. She attended Steve's funeral yesterday (see post from a few days ago regarding Steve). It's good that the school makes allowance for things like this, seems like there has been quite a bit this school year.

Daughter #1 just called re needing new contacts. She's had some temporary contact lenses and it's time to get fresh ones. Fresh contacts. Amazing.

Sky a bright crisp blues, sparse bright yellow clouds, sun just up.

Got a nice valentine from Rose, saying that it's nice when I help her with algebra. Very sweet.

Conference with Peter's teachers yesterday, saw some of his writing and drawings. Seems to be doing real well.

Work stays interesting, research and otherwise. Sure feels good to have the organizing going into place, there's far too much going on to not have a serious organization effort.

Need to get to the Y during the week somehow, maybe early mornings. Music with Noisy Withdrawal tonight, with music team tomorrow night, violin lesson Saturday morning.

And that's life for today. Cup of tea done, a cup of coffee later, finish working on a presentation today, and try to spend some time in the lab.

Ready


Set




Go.
