1. Day at the museum looking at art followed by sun in a garden. Only one third of an amazing weekend.

2. Seeing my quartet family this week after a too long time apart. I'm happy about this.

3. Note to self: need to be mindful of my boundaries, stick to them, and exert only as much energy as is necessary or warranted.

4. Absolutely enthralled with K.K. Edin's book The Measurements of Decay, which has completely sucked me in and given me a lot to think about.

5. Classical music street fest. Thai food in a shady corner. Beer and chatting in an Irish pub.

6. Movie night with friends, followed by deep discussion. Dinner over a bottle of wine.
