For the first time this year I had a good weekend. Everything went very pleasantly, the Botanical Garden's show has expanded even more with incredibly wonderful craftsmanship, and I had today off to sleep and recover. Between the holidays, the funeral, year end league table updates and healthcare conference prep it's been non-stop and I was worried that I was entering this year too exhausted to last very long.

Yesterday I felt ok, today I felt better. I think I'm ready to start again. Plus: no erroneous missile alerts! Sorry Hawaii, that really must have sucked.
