I signed my official letter accepting my new position at work and my cards are on order. It's mundane, but it is a foundation. After having the rug pulled out from under me once the hostile take-over started two years ago, and subsequently not even certain I was going to stay in the country, this represents a paradigm shift. I haven't even been enthusiastic my houseplants because of the possibility of having to chuck them all, let alone putting my weight behind substantial projects.

That is changed now. Now I have the inclination to put my hooks into bigger projects. I have some interesting things up my sleeve.
