Gratitude note: forty-fifth Monday

I have survived my first day of online teaching. Not everything went right, but it was ok. I need to get serious about building some walking back into my life, though. My excuses for the past week have been "but I have so much to do", "but it's so cold", "but it's dark already". 

It's been a week since my last note, so I feel like I'm forgetting a lot of things I should have expressed gratitude for.

I am grateful:

1. For the service on our Envirovent. They came to clean it (small fee), found it wasn't working and so we get a new unit and an extension on our warranty.
   
   
2. For students taking part online, being cheerful, and (many of them) turning their cameras on.
   
   
3. For a lovely Zoom linguist party on Saturday.
   
   
4. For the newly installed (2 weeks) routine of Friday night film (must be a new-to-us one) with Phil.
    
5. For Lynne C finding and saving (in two senses)
   my purple glove!
   
   
6. For Phil dealing with the tradespeople.
