Praise then darkness, and creation unfinished

I just called the lawyer, and he hadn't gotten even the email. He says that we will need to ask for a hearing, but that I don't need to do anything until I get that letter. Given the history on this, I'm putting a reminder in my calendar to follow up if it doesn't turn up by the end of March. (I've already had to get my congresswoman's staff to intercede once in order to get a copy of one of their previous letters.)

Other than that, I'm feeling a little under the weather, but have been for a walk in the sunshine, and am about to have a cup of herb tea.
