We're closing at one.

House/dog sitting is painful! No, really. My dog and their dog were playing and slammed into my left leg at knee level. Feels like something is dislocated. Grrr. Ice skating today should be ohsofun with an already owie knee.

I feel you, girl. Lucy body-checked me into the wall the other day running in the hallway. I almost thought I broke something.

Normal work day here. It's going to be a seriously bad day too.

They are doing a HUGE concrete pour today at my construction site (note, the picture has not been updated since I last linked it.) I have called home to see if CJ wants to come hang with me and watch. They have concrete trucks lined up around the block waiting for their turn at the pumper. This is gonna be an all day thing - wonderfully distracting.

We are up to at least 10 people here now.

Quizzes done! Semester DONE!

WHEEEE! Go vw!

Gud, I'm sorry it's going to be a tough day. I hope good things happen as well.

Yay, vw! "No more pencils, no more books, no more teacher's dirty looks! "

Yay vw!!! I knew you could do it. Virtual cookies for you!

The embassy technically remained open until 5:00, but the DCM said yesterday "Non-essential personnel may be dismissed at 1:00, and essential personnel may depart if they've addressed all business." My DH replied "By, for example, forwarding my work phone to home?" which got a general laugh.

Today at 2:00 he looked up from his desk and realized he was the last person in the building.

I went and picked him up, and we swung by the store to stockpile food for the holiday. It was actually kind of festive, with lights everywhere, and a live band playing Christmas music in the shopping arcade. Turkeys were about $40 each, so we will not be having turkey, but otherwise it looks set to be a nice holiday.

Quizzes done! Semester DONE!
