I saw a faint streak of color in the sky when I left work at 6 tonight, and I now have hope that I'll make it through this miserable winter. It's sunny for a change, but windy and cold. How long until spring?

Until then, I'm passing the time with swimming and reading about boatbuilding: my mile tonight was back to just over 25 minutes, and I know more about the manufacture of sailcloth than I ever wanted.

We had the pile of cinderblock and the remaining old wall hauled away last week and built the new wall over the weekend. Much better!

I got a prescription for statins to help my slightly high cholesterol, but I ran it through the laundry.

I need to take more photos.

And.. that's all I can think of right now.
