Baby Steps

So I had a quiet day. My wife was gone most of the day with my 15-yr-old and my 11-yr-old was upstairs playing computer games. I'm reading a book about the 1918 flu pandemic. I'll add comments about it when I finish it. I did watch some very forgettable football today while I read. I also got on my exercise machine, FINALLY, and hope to make a habit of it. If I take a sensible approach, I know I'll be consistent.
Few thoughts of work or the war or politics. I need that.
This evening, the four of us (Vera, the boys, and I) played Scrabble. It used to be a given that I would win, but Gabriel and Vera have both won recently. They are all getting better and I'm really glad about that.
No anger today. I guess that's a good day.
