Happy surprises

that I changed last year and
is suitably happy!)


There is very deep snow in Toronto. I know environmentally that's good, 
but it means that many side roads are single lane instead of two way.

After patiently driving behind a garbage truck on a side street for
3/4 of an hour, on what would have normally been a four minute
drive at best,  I thanked the garbage men, and marvelled at how
much we throw out.

And! I arrived home to an absolutely spectacular present from an
artist friend -- a calendar of my friend's art, which is beyond
awesome.  Steven and I were so delighted.   

Friends matter.

Have a loving your life day!
