Today I have felt significantly more awake, though the cold continues to ravage my poor rubbed-raw nose and is making speculative forays down into my chest as the gunk slowly drains from my face. Ugh. Bodies.

Anyway, today Miss Goldberry and I swapped out our winter decorations for Valentines decorations. This year I made a rainbow of our previously-made hearts, plus a few new purple ones that Miss Goldberry made because purple is her favorite color. Then we put up red cupid silhouettes in the corners, lavender clouds at the ends of the rainbow, and small lines of heart-shaped "rain" coming down from the clouds. We both think the display needs something in the center to balance it out, but we're not sure what. Possibly teddy-bears holding hearts in their arms? A box of chocolates? A bouquet of roses and/or hearts? I'm sure it will come to one of us eventually.

(I'll try to snap a photo on Monday.)

I walked home tonight, since the temperature has returned to bearable ranges (ie, hovering just below freezing), whereas the past several days I've been carefully arranging my schedule so as to take buses that turn into Route #17 and thus drop me off only a few blocks from my house instead of ones that end near the Commons and thus leave me with a roughly 1-mile walk. Nobody needs to be walking that much in the dark in sub-zero (Fahrenheit) temperatures. Tonight I didn't bother with a bus at all and walked first down East Hill to the lake valley and then the mile north to my house.

I have also made brownies for church coffee hour tomorrow morning. They are cooling on my kitchen table and will be ready to cut and pack in about half an hour.

Now I'm going to finish dinner and then get started on a small database analysis project I am doing for Nick, to save him some time and mental stress. :)
