45 days: 12

• I've been thinking recently about all the ways life is so much more comfortable and easy now than it was just 80 to 100 years ago -- transportation, communication, housing, food, getting information (the Internet). I wonder how daily life will change in the future.
• My health is good.
• I'm learning to manage my mood and perspective to stay upbeat and positive most of the time, and I notice it working. I am happier more of the time than I was a few weeks ago.
• We're more than halfway through this week, and where I work this coming Friday is a holiday. Woot!
