16 June 2014: complete exhaustion paves the way

Today I am grateful for complete exhaustion from previous arguments with my husband, which allowed me to relax and not fight him today. Great improvement. They say that Ozu used this method on his actors: exhausting them first, and then they delivered perfect performance.

17 September 2013: wind chimes

Today I am grateful to my husband for getting these wind chimes, which give off quite a gentle and original sound, like a distant Gamelan orchestra. Unlike that disaster of a garden mechanical bird he got, which went off last night (prompted by the huge rain drops, I suppose) and started chirping incessantly.
