I brought work home last night so I could power through some stacks of editing. After a simple meal of scallions, spinach, and scrambled egg beaters, I hit the ground running. Some progress was made before I got two fairly lengthy calls, one from my sister (married), and one from E. By the time the last convo ended, I was beat (at about 10:30), so I hit the sack. Hard. I'll likely bring stuff home again tonight. We're in the crunch now.

I also heard from my youngest sister yesterday, from Italy. She seems to be in good spirits, which automatically lifted mine.
