been lower on energy lately than is usual

No where near as low energy as many people have to deal with--I am still managing work, the cloak is progressing, song writing has happened, and I had a wonderful time over skype with folk in the Mists Bardic college getting some really helpful feedback and suggestions for it, but less housework has gotten done than usual, and more sleeping. Fortunately, lord_kjar has had the energy to pick up some of the slack, so the house isn't any worse than normal.

I have even managed to make a bit more progress in the book I am reading, ever so slowly. I started reading Eragon, by Chrsitopher Paolini on 14 August, and I am only about 2/3 of the way through it. I never read the original, so I have no idea if it the story itself, or just the translation that is so uninspiring, but I don't really seem to care how it goes, and only keep reading because it is good practice to read things in Swedish. Hopefully whatever I pick up next will be more interesting. Even in Swedish and with a busy life I should be able to manage a book in two or three weeks, if not the two or three days I used to average in English.

I am glad to see that winter is on the way--it has been three weeks now since it started freezing most nights, but it still has warmed up above freezing most days, even if not so much. Now if only the snow would fly, so that we get the winter brightness that I love so much, with the light coming from the ground instead of the sky...

It was great skyping with you. I understand energy drops - sometimes sleep is necessary.
