Congratulations, Women:

You officially made it through this cold, grey week!

This is how I feel myself, and though Martin and the girls are out at the moment and I'm always cataloging what I could do on such an auspicious occasion, I have no motivation to sweep the kitchen floor or put away overdue clean laundry or even to take a shower (though I am persuading myself in that direction). Or start a new book, for that matter. I am directionless for the most part and okay with that.

For those of you who are sick, I wish you may quickly and happily recover; for those who are tired, I wish an early night and much succor; to you who are world-weary, a good movie and connection with your spouse and with yourself.

For myself, I am hoping for an easy and hot dinner, an early bedtime for Elspeth, a sip of wine and good company, and perhaps a jot of Netflix before sleep. Aren't Fridays something to celebrate?
