Some people might think that in the midst of a pandemic and impeachment and division that good days are a thing of the past. Sometimes I think that, too, but not today. Today has been a good day. This morning, my computer was misbehaving. As I read a story about COVID fatigue and stress, my fairly new laptop froze, and when it unfroze, the news site I was on said I had reached the maximum limit for free stories for the month and if I wanted to read more I had to pay. I was about to punch my new laptop in the face, but then one of the cats jumped on my lap and licked my chin, which made me laugh. Laughing at cats lessens stress. Less stress equals a good day. My husband painted the wall around the front door today, something that needed to be done.
