This is our earliest morning which always makes it hard to sleep the night before because of anxiety—either right up front or subconsciously—so it is also one of our hardest days because we are so tired.  But I love Wednesday nights because it’s behind us and the pressure is gone for another week.  It is a ridiculous situation but we can’t seem to shake that old culprit, angst.

There was a bad accident on one of the bridges early this morning resulting in a 6-7 car pile-up which backed up traffic for hours.  Many of the workers and patrons were late and came to the temple with stories of long, long waits on the beltway and slow commutes.  The early sessions were so small, and then it was busy as the arrivals bunched  together.  There was also an accident last night that caused re-routed traffic to back up even on Kensington Road where we walk.  From our window we could see it backed up bumper to bumper for a long time.

Best Buy finished working on Glade’s computer and we went out tonight about 8:00 to pick it up.  It was just mal-ware and ad-ware so the geeks cleaned it up.  However, I heard that on Cyber Monday, which is the day he had so much trouble—that many people had a hard time getting emails and sending texts even, because of high demand.  So, he had a double whammy!  But, all is well tonight and he is happy to be back in business.  While we were at Best Buy, I picked up a DVD drive for my computer.  Now I can use my own for movies and music and not have to rely on Glade's.  It was my Christmas present.  

It was a beautiful day for our walk and it just cheered us right up.  Not that we needed cheering up necessarily—we just need sleep 😊

Love to everyone and HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MADDIE!!
