Thursday: well, tomorrow's a new day

Well, I've had better days, although really only a small percent of the day wasn't great. And one problem was fixed and the other has hopes of being fixed tomorrow. Well, only two major problems today. We won't mention the normal problems that happen in the course of a normal day lately. Those are considered challenges and I guess are what make the job fun. My goal is to get a project done by next Friday. Don't worry, I'll keep you posted.

But I digress. The most exciting thing of the day had to do with those two airshow tickets I mentioned. I thought someone was just trying to get rid of them and encourage aircraft love. But it turns out that the guy ended up saying they were for my hard work on the project and I got congrats from my boss and my boss' boss. The other good thing about the airshow is I'll have something to take a picture of again.

I'm raiding tonight. We'll see how well it goes. I've been significantly cutting back since my last WoW post.

Wednesday

Well, today has been a goodish day. Better than fine, not quite good yet. They've been that way for a bit now. My big project that I'm working on is now about 6x over schedule, but the end is finally in sight. I'm not sure what I'll do with myself once it's done. :)

We tried a new recipe tonight. Ben and I borrowed a cook book from Dee...cooking with four ingredients. Since there are only four ingreients the prep seems to be simple, which is what we are looking for. Anyway, it was a Coca-cola chicken. Not very cola-y, but still good. We put it with beans and cous-cous and it seems like a healthy meal even.

Tuesday

Hmm, what's new today? It is rather warm out...warmer than it has been in the house for a while. I kept thinking it was Wednesday. We hired someone to mow the lawn. We still can't mow all of the lawn because it is a bit to soggy. I wish I was better at reading and not falling asleep.

The small text says "Fearfully and wonderfully made." And it was for a retreat, sorry Han. :(

Monday: I forgot what I was going to write about

Well, at one point today I had something I was going to write about. It wasn't really that interesting, but it would have been more interesting than this post will be.

I've now sat here for a few minutes trying to figure it out and couldn't. We got some orange pop at the grocery store. They've stopped selling chicken enchilada helper which is our favorite. Gas is significantly cheaper in PA. Three more weeks of work before I'm planning on taking a day off. I'm tired. I'm wearing my "Beautiful Woman" shirt. It's a good thing that the grass will be mowed tomorrow because the weeds are getting a bit unruly again. Joe and Dee were using DVD shelves for their books...an idea I really like because the shelves were thinner and in smaller segments to prevent bowing. I'm not raiding tonight. :)

Sunday: gross

Well, the trip home was uneventful. We started to seal the granite in the bathroom, and Flurry is about to have a heart attack. We have kept her out of her favorite room all day.

While I was cleaning the kitty litter I noticed some grass had dropped out of the mower. It did this a bit before, so I didn't think much of it and started to clean it up. Well, I'm guessing we got some extra dirt up in the mower on the first mow and it was damp and there were maggots. Yuck. Not a lot yet, but enough that we removed the rest of the gunk from the mower like we should have earlier.

Saturday: PA

This weekend we went to visit Joe and Dee. It was either rainy or hot and humid so we didn't do a lot outside, but we still had lots of fun.

Ben, Joe, Dee, and Ben's trophy for winning mini-golf:
