Well, I'm feeling a little better today. I decided to forget about worrying over the exam mistake - I'm human, I've got far more going on than most people have to cope with.

And the toilet is fixed. The plumber was only an hour and a half late for the appointment (after I RACED home to meet him on time...)

I knit some more on the shawl for my mother. I read some of Wendell Berry's essays while I waited for the plumber to finish. (While I was waiting for the plumber to come, all I could to was pace the floor and gripe to myself about how I am always there for people, but when I need help, I wind up waiting and waiting...)

I'm exhausted. But I decided to go on the birding field trip this weekend after all. Because if I keep on working, my head is going to explode.
