Today's Accomplishments

1. Made it from my lovely warm bed to my seat in the classroom in 35 minutes. One small step for Cait, one giant moment of hate for daylight-savings-time-inspired-dark-mornings.

2. Learned about and ate a lot of seaweed. It's delicious, nutritious, abundant and FREE.

3. Biked to Lawn Hill. 44km round-trip. Exercise win but planning fail due to unexpectedly intense headwind on the way home. In combination with snow. And forgetting to bring a snack.

4. Made a beautiful fire and heated my home with my own two hands.

This evening's plan: finish my lentil soup and grilled cheese, make some tea, write about the ecology and history of the Sgaan Kinghlas Seamount, read birth stories from Old Massett and peruse a thesis I stumbled upon on retention of rural physicians that just happens to use the Queen Charlotte Hospital and Haida Gwaii as its case study.

I miss you all so very, very much but this experience and this time in my life defies description. The agony and the ecstasy.
