I forgot to mention the part where I was talking to my advisor yesterday and started up the "blue streak," talking really fast about all the work that I'd gotten done in the morning (which is more than I'd done in the past 2 weeks. ) Yeah, it's no wonder that others notice my mood swings...

I wrote a full section of a case study description, made the from-scratch cornbread, and worked on my hubby's b-day socks. All in all, a very productive day! And I still feel great today, despite heavy gray skies, so I'm going to try to get another section of this case study finished, plus a few other sundry tasks. Here's hoping I can keep up the pace for a couple days and get this chapter written!
