Done yesterday

It felt like a busy day at the time... And it was mostly good -- I'm delighted with the surprisingly rapid progress Colleen is making.

I wound up being intensely frustrated by the Amazon Kindle I bought her: web browsing is slow, formatting is poor, and I seem to be unable to log in so she can read locked posts. Grrr. But it'll work for reading public posts, and she seems generally happy with it. I still don't know whether I should make her an account of her own, or leave it with mine. She doesn't have her own Amazon account.

Joyce brought over some gluten-free matzoh-ball soup -- delightful! And I've received lots of happy-making comments on LJ. But apart from that, it didn't feel much like my birthday. I think that, at my age, that's probably a good thing.

Spent much of the evening in Middle-Sized Bear mode. I have no idea whether it helped or made things worse. Some people seem to think I'm good at it; from the inside I'm totally out of my depth and have no confidence in my ability, because I don't understand it at all.

/me sighs deeply.
