The week has improved somewhat since Saturday.  Doing practically nothing yesterday excepting knitting, laundry, and watching Escaflowne was some of the best therapy I've had in a while.  (Well.  Other than hanging with Will all Saturday.  And RenFest.)

Remember a few posts ago, when I mentioned getting a bunch of jewelry supplies?
