rose: i managed to fix a basket that got broken. it was a lovely basket that i use for storing toys in downstairs, so it feels good to be able to repair things instead of throw things out. also, we're getting some work down in our basement today and tomorrow – new flooring installed in the kitchen (currently just painted concrete) and getting trim in each room. the flooring is half installed and look great. i've always wanted a barber shop type of checkerboard floor, so that's what we went with. i'm really happy with it :)

thorn: it's been the kind of day where i have not felt restful. even the free moments that i had to sit and read, my brain kept telling me there are more productive things i should be doing. brendan told me that that's not a good sign. he said people on their way to being burnt out think that way.
