Ah, the unpredictable winds of fortune...

I am just laughing.

Everything comes to a head today.

I make and submit the one minute-TED video (clips from longer talks made and posted).

The big conversation I've been obsessing about happens this afternoon.

The cash reserves are officially down to a one-month cushion AND, through an honest and understandable mistake, Michael's ex and her husband accidentally claimed Trent on their taxes this year---so we had to file an extension and cannot get our substantial refund until, probably, August or September.

Oh, and I need to finalize the FoV retreat schedule today.

I'm just laughing softly to myself. It's funny.

Wheeeeee! I'm genuinely amused.
