Ladies, Gentlemen, Readers,

One must look for the good in all things. If nothing else it will humanize any situation, any person, disabuse you of any black and white "good or evil" thoughts.
In this spirit I must make a heartfelt observation: it is incredibly good to be caught up. To have no work unfinished or ignored through lack of time or energy. People, it's amazing.
It's not fully hit home yet, I'm only very slowly adjusting to the change of pace but I'm starting to regain the metaphorical feeling back in the tips of my metaphorical fingers!
