list-ish post.

I had an extremely productive weekend. I didn't get everything done that I wanted to, but I really enjoyed the things I was able to do.
Key accomplishments:
Actually, that's about all I can remember after spending the last two days sequestered in a Room Of Let's Get Stuff Done at werk. My brain is sort of melted.
But, you know, the new meds seem to be okay. There were moments when - without outside stimulus - I could look at things and look forward to a future that is not bleak and may be worth living. There are still far too many moments of not wanting to be around anymore, but I think this new combination will turn out to be good.
Key accomplishments:
- I finished Emi's dress! It's too big for her now, but she'll grow. I should have slip-stitched the lining instead of top-stitching it, but I don't regret the decision. Done is beautiful and I can always add a little ruffle or something to cover it.
- I started one of the blouses for me. It's an experiment that may end up with a crash and burn, but we'll see how it shapes up.
- Laundry! Wash all the things!
- Emi, Ox, and I walked to the village park Sunday morning. Emi showed me that she can climb a 6-foot tall ladder all by herself, thus giving me almost a heart attack.
- We had several family meals with all of us at the table!
- My computer is still a paperweight, so I didn't get to editing and posting pictures of anything. My poor camera's getting pretty full.
- Figs are quite delightful in stir-fry. Also, dinner with cousin and his new wife was even more delightful.
- Planning for the nerdlings' birthdays continues. If you're free on Aug 18th and in the area, come over to say Hi. Just let me know ahead of time so we have enough chicken and watermelon. There will likely be far too many cupcakes. And beer. For adults, not for nerdlings.
- Watching Olympics with an almost-three-year-old is far more entertaining than just watching Olympics. Emi's going to be a bike rider, a sword lady, a swimmer, and a bouncy dancer (gymnastics). I heard she watched some of the equestrian events with Daddy, which may have extended the list slightly.
