If like me, you are a Metal Dog, you may get a kick out of this:

THE METAL DOG 1910 AND 1970
Metal Dogs have extremely high standards and expect a lot of themselves and of others. They are loyal and hold a strong outlook about the direction they want their life to take. They choose their friends and causes with care, as they do not plan to ever not support these people and things again. Once they have committed themselves, there is little to no turning back. They are bold, unafraid to disagree out loud about anything they feel is unjust or unfair. Metal Dogs are easily stressed if a plan does not go accordingly. They find it difficult to relax when there are things to be done.

Five good things:
1. Chinese New Year
2. Cleaning handprints off the banister (finally, after about 5 years)
3. Crossing tasks off my to-do list
4. Close-up lenses for the Rollei on eBay
5. Nursing a sick child - although not good that she is sick. Ear infection #6!
