Planning the summer vacation. Now that it's February, July doesn't seem so far away.
Planning to plant a peach tree. It might die or never fruit, but right now I'm enchanted by the idea of tree grown peaches in my yard.
Helping my dad get his house ready to sell. It's the house I lived in from birth until I moved out on my own. It's good to spruce it up. He's moving in with his fiance, and it's hard for him to give up the space of his own, so it's been a good bonding experience for us. I'm also now the keeper of many old family heirlooms. Pressure's on.
Mild winter weather.
Doing research site visits. I love research where I go out and spend time in nursing homes or interviewing care recipients in the community. It reminds me that my job makes a difference. Tomorrow I begin a two year stint of long site visits across the country. This one is in Wisconsin-our only "close" site.
Blacklight flashlights. I feel better knowing there was only one cat pee spot. And in Ali's defense, she has kidney failure and peed where we'd put her litterbox when she had knee surgery and was confined in the bedroom. Using stuff called "Anti Icky Poo" to clean it also made me smile.
The Voice! My friend Mark co-wrote a song that was on a snipit last night. That made my Voice love even more intense.
