Downs

• I still have the cold that I had a couple of weeks ago. Either that or I’m having overlapping colds, hard to say.

Ups

• It was very sunny and warm day today. Not too hot and not too cold.
• Calvin was in a pretty good mood today.
• We got takeout for supper so I didn’t have to worry about cooking anything.
• UPDATE: Jaeger being home from India is also an up but he came home yesterday which is why I didn’t originally list it

Calvin Moment

• Calvin spent a lot of time today engaged in his two favorite activities: chasing Willow and walking around with his truck walker.

Simplification

• Our teapot started making weird scary noises whenever we boiled water in it. Nothing seemed wrong with it but I still couldn’t help but imagining it suddenly exploding one day. A couple of weeks ago we got a new teapot. I finally decided to throw the old teapot away. It still looks fine but if we’re not willing to use it, I probably shouldn’t try passing it off on anyone else.

Food Diary

• Breakfast – Oatmeal with bananas and soy milk
• Lunch – Holiday Bean soup with an Apricot Muffin
