I got a package of rather neat-looking strawberries. After small modification, this one resembled a person from the comics.

This has been a rather fun and real week. I did not leave work feeling depressed about life EVEN ONCE. Maybe I am getting used to it. Or maybe things are genuinely fun and people (or me) are changing and becoming more fun.

The realness of life has come from church people. The stuff happening at Zoar is wonderful, real, and fulfilling.

Anne's birthday was good. The big event was that we got to welcome a new member into our family--Anne got a very good flute. It took a lot of thought and head-scratching, but I am glad we finally got it. The old Yamaha was getting beyond its useful life and was not a large-level enough instrument for Anne anymore.
