Everybody wants what they can't have

My brain is still busy, or maybe it's just not clearing right now. I think a not-great night of sleep didn't help last night. That, and I clearly have some burgeoning anxiety about going back into the trenches on Friday. I just know that I have a long run coming up with trauma stacked right after the burn unit, so I'm going to have to work extra-hard to generate "break" and sanity time for myself (even in the face of some substantial upcoming deadlines). I know of lots of good upcoming live music and I suspect that will play a significant role.

In the interest of getting more rest tonight, here the Happiness/ Gratitude list, 21 July edition:
  1. Almost-rain today. I would have preferred actual rain, but a cooler day was pleasant- even though it was grey enough out that it foiled our outdoor plans.
  2. Daddy with his engineer brain and ability to sort through details. Yes, I do details but they're different from engineer-type details. Having his brain here to work on some household projects has been very, very useful (and having Daddy here has just been pleasant and lovely).
  3. Our spectacular salmon supper tonight. It was a perfect summer treat.
  4. I've got nothing else tonight. Maybe tomorrow.
