I'm exhausted.  3 stints of snow shoveling so far today.  It's in the twenties  which feels like a heat wave after yesterday's 2 below zero.

I'm stressed too. A couple of crises in the extended family--turmoil, drama, expenses, tears, lawyers and driving through white out weather to help.  Ach.  Cold and stress not a good combo for a 60 year old tall guy.
Also... NB: after playing Legos on the floor with grandsons for an hour and half, find something to lean on before you try to get up.  Just sayin'.

Good news though...Thomas Fink has received the first  copies of the new anthology of criticism he co-edited, Reading the Difficulties, which promises to be an important and exciting book.  I can't wait to read it.
