Looks like I have lapsed in chronicalling the 3 things I promise myself to do every day. So in the interest of renewing that commitment:

1. Today I learned that love is an action, not a feeling. And the marriage expert from the University of Washington has discovered that marriage quality is maintained if 1 negative interaction between a couple is balanced by FIVE positive interactions!

2. Today I am grateful for my elliptical trainer. I am still a bit fat and jiggly, not that it bogthers me overly much, but the machine gives me a nice place to exercise on a rainy day like today. I like not having to leave home. I am also grateful that I don't have to go to a job.

3. Today I designed the layout for the new gameroom, and that will make Martin happy.
