A quiet spring

Last Saturday, I spent the day with Auntie Janice. We ran errands and just hung out. We had lunch at Ivar's, which is a fish 'n' chips place that also has good clam chowder. Then we went for a walk on the University of Washington campus, because the cherry blossoms were in bloom. Janice said that the blossoms seemed to have faded in color since she was a student, years ago. Sure enough, in another part of campus we saw some cherry blossoms that were a much brighter pink. (I did not take a picture of them, however.)

Otherwise, things have been calm. I have been trying to keep life simple, not sleep so much, and program more.

Regardless, everything should get busier soon. Several people are visiting in May, the weather is getting nicer, and I plan to visit California again in June (LA, 6/6 - 6/15) and July (LA/SD, 7/1 - 7/14).

I feel very fortunate to have this time. Prayers appreciated that I will use it wisely.
