Thanks, Beverly.
It was gorgeous here today too, like January in Los Angeles. I had no outside errands, other than watering plants, but I needed orange zest for a recipe so I went for a walk to find a ripe orange on one of the trees that line our streets.
We seem to always wind up with at least one room, sometimes two, that should be labelled "Everything Else." There's the living room (used by us as a parlor; i.e., for guests only), the kitchen, the dining room, the bedroom(s) and bathroom(s), and then the TV-computer-game-darts-crafts room. Guess where we spend our time?
For those of you playing along at home, I can't recommend combining peanut butter and green olive tapenade.
I think this is why DH resists streamlining and decluttering---he still expects to "someday" own a house with a three-car garage, built-in workshop and outbuildings for tinkering on lawn tractors and motorcycles.
I've gotten better, but I fear I also have a 2,400-square-foot house with a garage and a workshop in my head. The one I'm sitting in is a furniture-packed 1,300-square-foot house with carport.
It's beautiful here today too, but I must spend most of my time on the computer.
Deena, I hope you and the small persons have a good day.
Oh, my head's home has a library, a guest room (as well as a master suite with separate tub and shower in the bathroom), and a kitchen with room for a table.
My body's current home is a 1 bedroom, 580 square foot apartment. On the upside, it's relatively cheap to heat.

Calli and I are living in the same head-house and similar body-houses. My body house is about 100 sf smaller, tho. And, heat is included in my rent.
happy birthday calli.
I think the buffista back pain is catching
sj, I forgot to send you exam~ma. Go, study.
I studied, my essay is done, and I am off to school in a few minutes.
The DH and I both dreamed I was pregnant last night.
I dreamed about pregnancy last night. I think it was because I've been feeling a bit nostalgic about pregnancy. I was one of those women who had the easiest pregnancy ever and one of my neighbors is pregnant. I'm definitely not ready for another baby, but I've been thinking a lot about it lately. (eta: not about having another baby. I've just been remembering fondly being pregnant last year at this time)
Daniel, I think you should at least approach HR about a place to test. I also think it's pretty poor that someone complained without talking to you first.
Daniel - let me add to the "HR needs to make reasonable accomodations" crowd.
Steph - if you are around, a work exchange this morning reminded me of you. I'm wearing a black skirt, a black tank top, and a white overshirt. My contracts manager is wearing black capri's, a white shirt, and a black vest. She looked at me first thing and said "hey, we are dressed alike, I see you got the memo". I just giggled.
