Had a couple of really bad days there, days in which I probably should have looked for the good but just couldn't. But here are some good things from today:

1. House is pretty clean. Nothing like hosting a party to spur you to new heights of cleanliness.
2. Champagne bought and ready for New Year's Eve.
3. Hummingbird!

Additionally, my car has new tires, which I wouldn't have counted as something wonderful given everything that led to it happening, but hey, it's still not a bad thing.

1. Hanukkah with the in-laws.
2. More writing.
3. More Utena.

1. Christmas.
2. Teppanyaki. (Our holiday tradition.)
3. Building a big fort in the living room.

. . . In truth, it's been tough with the youngest having a broken leg. He gets dispirited, is showing signs of depression. It has been difficult to cheer him up, but we keep trying.

1. Introduced my oldest son to Utena. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy that series!
2. Made progress on my rewrites.
3. Managed to find and catch the hamster when she got loose.

Bonus: cool new tarot deck for Hanukkah.

1. Was able to swap wheelchairs with no fuss. (The first one had a wheel that kept going flat.) This one works better for my son to sit at the table, too.
2. Almost done with editing . . . except now I'm actually rewriting the ending of this novel. It's only the last ~40 pages. Hope to have it done soon.
3. Drawful. Love family game night!
