Beautiful fall day here. The sun is out and the trees and bushes are showing off brilliant red, yellow and orange foliage among the wintergreens – takes one’s breath away. Chilly enough just for a light fall jacket or heavy sweater. My kind of weather!! I took a dose of Nyquil last night before bedContinue reading “SUNDAY IN THE BUSH”

I believe I have mentioned that my daughter and I chat on Messenger each morning at 5 AM. We did this even before I started working for the same company and, now that I do, because we all have a shared team software, I can see when she logs on or off the site. MyContinue reading “GIVE THANKS, YOU SAY?”

We’re sick, and have been since last Monday. Little Flea brought the cold home from school and shared it around. She has bounced back but both my son and I are still feeling it, especially me with a sore throat, deep coughs, and headache off and on. Fortunately I am able to complete my workday,Continue reading “UNDER THE WEATHER”

I admit that I do agree with Kabu’s comment on TAPS’ post. She wrote Everyone. Listen. No excuses. Let’s just write even if it is only to say I am still here and it is another day. I love you all so much… I am in reading regularly, and I know I get worried ifContinue reading “GUILTY AS CHARGED.”

All it took was me bragging about our perfect temperatures. Today made a liar out of me – it is humid and too darned hot. A thunderstorm is on its way tonight they say, which will be wonderful to cool things down, but certainly not conductive to any sleep in this house. So far Mommy,Continue reading “TO SLEEP OR NOT TO SLEEP”

Since childhood, I am what could be categorized as a night-owl? One of the best jobs I have ever had was for the Foreign Exchange in the Airport. It was only a 30 minute drive from home with hardly any traffic, and not long after being hired, I was named supervisor and asked to takeContinue reading “WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD…”

My training went better than expected, so I was able to start working from home on Wednesday instead of next Monday. Loving it, as are the beasts and Miss Pistache, who calls to me when I Ieave her area to go into my office. After a bit she stops squawking, and I hear her mutterContinue reading “AN UPDATE ON MY GOINGS ON”

Today is my last day at the present job. I would have liked to leave with a flourish, if only in my mind, but Morpheus was evasive last night, so I imagine at the end of my shift I will be limping out of there, clenching my teeth with pain in my back, as usual.Continue reading “LAST DAY”

Beautiful weather in my mountain right now, 24C which is around 75F, I believe. Sun is shining with a few puffy clouds in the sky, but no mention of rain in the forecast. Guess there will be some watering to do in the garden, although I’ll wait on Karen to get back this afternoon toContinue reading “ONE OF THOSE MOMENTS”

We did get to visit our friend, bringing along a care package, in which was included some cinnamon buns baked while the oven was hot. We spent a couple of hours chatting and laughing with her, only leaving when the storm started. On the way home I had to drive around some big branches thatContinue reading “FEELIN’ GOOD!”
