My Nerf archery skills aren't what they used to be.

Here are my three good things from the weekend:

1.  Alison and I started sorting through the contents of her office.  This is good, because the quicker the office becomes the new guest bedroom, the quicker I can stop sleeping on the sofa-bed.* My super-incredible upstairs guest bedroom with fireplace has been appropriated by the man and woman of the house for the new master bedroom, so I've got to move downstairs. Ah, well. Into each life a little rain must fall. And I will have a new place to sleep before the winter!

2.  I had a very intense backyard sword fight with the Heather boys on Saturday.  You haven't suffered true humiliation until you've been hamstrung by an eight-year-old. Although I will say in my own defense that my only weapon was a Nerf bow and arrow. Not very effective in close combat situations, but good fun all around.

3.  Lamb and leeks for dinner on the screen porch last night.  Very autumnal. And delicious.

What are your three good things?

*However, as sofa-beds go, this one is rather comfortable. Or at least it became so once I discovered that if I just sleep in the middle of the bed in the first place, I'll stop rolling towards it. I'm too embarrassed to tell you how long it took for me to figure that out.
