always on the hottest day of the year

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2014.08.26

Cycled in a mad rush across the city today, getting to the hospital - it's always on the hottest day of the year. Our poor little munchkin, always with the ambulances and the emergency wards.

Three good things that happened today:

  1. Crisis averted
  2. A glimmer of new hope has emerged from all of it
  3. As always, the family functioned well throughout; I married well and we have a treasure of a big brother (though he ate all the chips)

rand()m quote

It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

—Anne Frank
