I sleep. I finally sleep.

I open my eyes at dawn to see, just a few inches above me, two mosquitoes whining and trying valiantly but in vain to get at me through the new netting. I smile at them benevolently and amusedly. With the threat of sting gone, their siren song isn't unnerving at all; it's almost comforting.

A cool, rainy morning, so I work inside, preparing for the bathroom drain placement, and, in the basement, preparing for breaker box installation.

The sun is out this afternoon, so I tour the wet, fresh garden. First tomato blossoms! Pea pods are swelling nicely, just a couple days from harvest. Derek and Justin come over to play some ball - a home run derby in my driveway. Life is good again.
