Well, hey, even if there'd been frost and ice here, I didn't have to go anywhere in it! Er...
My now-ex-boss emailed me sort of apologizing, and saying she'd give me a reference, and telling me who all got let go.
I'm seriously contemplating joining a friend in Puerto Vallarta for a week, at the end of Feb. But sticking to my "no decisions until Monday" plan.
Today, I *should* go to the DMV and get my license plates. (In a twist of fate, I received my Washington State driver's license in the mail, yesterday....). I also need to do laundry. But I figure sleeping in until after 11AM is a good start.

Thanks for the nice wishes everyone. It's looking like I will be delivering the eulogy (eep) and perhaps having one or two other people reading poems or something like that. Holding the service at a community center with a nice view of gardens. Jack loved gardening so it feels appropriate.
wow, beth ... that's one big hole.
Weather here is miserable - cold, rainy ... it'll almost stop and then come down in torrents. bleah
In other news, they've found a new plant in Madagascar. It gets its own new genus. Overachiever.
It's a giant suicidal palm that can be seen from Space!!!
I think that there's a sci-fi movie in that!
Giardia looks so cute and blue. Still, yuck.
I have zero motivation to pick up the trainwreck we call a house.
If Sassypants wouldn't chew that to shreds I would buy it for her in an instant. I might anyway just to get a picture with her and it while she's sleeping and not chewing.
My sister's dogs were getting Giardia from standing water - and because both neighbors on either side of her cemented their backyards ( WTF?) and messed up the drainage. That was part of the reason for spending so much on landscaping her backlawn
I'm sure that you will honor Jack's memory with love, GC. I'm sorry for your loss. Please pass along my condolences to GF. It has been such a roller coaster. I'm sure you are both emotionally exhausted. Take care of each other.

So cute. And, actually, an opportunity to practice the 'leave it' command, if you were of a mind to.
Unfortunately, 'leave' it doesn't work for wee evil buggies you can't see, even with a microscope half the time.
