Well, the ear/nose/throat infection has rallied and gone on the offensive. Woke up feeling like crap, with throat dry and scratchy like I'd been sleeping in sand. This, it should go without saying, is not the case. In fact, I have a humidifier going right next to my bed, and I always have a glass of water sitting on the bedside stand. So, I'm well-hydrated, it just does not feel like it. I want to take a hot shower for about 3 days.
So, since I was in no shape to go anywhere, I spent the day finishing up here in the office (such as it is), and I am happy with the shape of things. Next week, hopefully, I will finally get these shelves up on the wall, where they belong, instead of leaning in the corner. Once they are up, I should be able to fit approximately one-third of the books that are currently in milk crates, and then I can get the milk crates out of here. Currently, two walls lined with said crates, and I will be happy to see a lot of them go. With them gone, I can fit another chair in here, which would be nice if I ever have a guest. In the meantime, I feel less crowded in here, and I am ready to get to work. This next week, I am going out looking for material. By next weekend, I hope to be ready to start putting together something interesting.
Happy New Year to everyone. This past year has been much better than the one that preceded it, and I am in much better shape, both emotionally and psychologically, than I was a year ago. My sincere belief is that '07 will be even better than '06, and I hope that it is a great year for all of us.
Peace and happiness to you all.
health,
new year,
good music,
creativity
