!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the house looks good. big, not designed with exactly the right rooms, but workable. clean. standing. gas stove. good light. it's a go.

and "daddy" arrived in town and wants to get together tonight.

AND THERE'S A STEREO IN MY CAR for the first time in 6 months.

I'm supposed to laundry (and my job) on a day like this?????

It's all I can do to keep breathing. Man.
