Up early (4:00 a.m., as usual on weekdays) for some writing, then a sharp workout on the bike trainer, and then breakfast with my beautiful wife as the sun was just starting to show itself.

"Vintage Dominoes", acrylic on masonite, by Paul Wolber

         

A good day at school with my very good students, then home for a fire in the fireplace, quiet conversation, some schoolwork at the dining room table, laughter, and dinner for the two of us with dominoes. (I took two out of three!) Afterwards, still the fire, still the laughter, and a few more pieces placed in our current puzzle.
