Managed to fit in a lot of “good for the soul” activities the last two days. That’s the whole reason I travel so much.

• Watching the Cats win an away game
• Taking a grandson to gymnastics and watching him bounce around like a nut
• Walking 9 holes at Crescent Hill on a warm-ish afternoon (and hitting the ball reasonably well)
• Having the grandsons’ new tiny dog fall asleep in my lap, then falling asleep myself
• Taking care of the other grandson while he’s home with the flu
• Teaching myself how to repair/replace damaged capacitors on a vintage stereo receiver
• Having an absolutely perfect slice of NY-style pizza from Frankfort Ave
• Listening to my vintage stereo receiver(s)

Even with crummy sleep, all those good karma activities have elevated my mood quite a bit. Go figure.
