Good News

Good news includes all the things which make us happy or otherwise feel good. It can be personal or public. We never know when something wonderful will happen, and when it does, most people want to share it with someone. It's disappointing when nobody is there to appreciate it. Happily, blogging allows us to share our joys and pat each other on the back.

What good news have you had recently? Are you anticipating any more?

Some of my folk who have been having difficulties are doing a bit better: jobs obtained, health problems being addressed, finances getting straightened out. I just arranged a really good public-service gig for one of the most difficult, and he's excited about it. My daughter just finished her 7th novel, and it rocks. I planted seven new trees - 3 Western hemlocks, 2 incense cedars, a Japanese maple and a vine maple - now I need a few more; going to buy 2 flowering cherries, a laburnum, and at least one forsythia on Saturday.

The good news I'm really hoping for is that the County Examiner's Office will deny the permit to put a commercial oyster farm in the middle of highly-sensitive protected habitat in Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge. The hearing about it is tomorrow at 1:00; I expect the room will be jam-packed with people going "oh HELL no!", and this truly stupid plan will die the death it so richly deserves. Fingers crossed! ^^

For the last week or so, I've tried cutting the metformin back from 2 pills a day to 1. In the last 12 days, the high hgl number has been 101 [& that after ice cream at night].
