After I tossed the mouse outside Penny found one of her play mice and sniffed it and walked off. I told her "Not as much fun as the ones that run huh?"

I haven't watched Criminal Minds in awhile but I did think... how would they profile her two attacks.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Askye, what Zenkitty said. Also, good job Penny.

I have the smiliest baby I have ever seen. I never knew I could adore anyone this much.

So I forgot the bag of food so that didn't get donated.

I didn't get more boxes because I wanted to completely use what I have and see from there.

In my trunk I found: 2 more bags of diet coke cans (I squirreled thesee things away), 2 bags to donate including 2 pairs of pants that were too big but I think will fit again! AND my ipod nano. Not ure how that ended up there.

I also realized as I drove away there was a hoodie Will gave me and I got a pang of regret but I'm not going back for it. Plus I didn't miss it.

That makes my heart so happy!

Aww, that's so sweet sj :)

I have an awful neck/jaw/headache and haven't accomplished any work today. Ugh. Tried a heating pad, no dice. Now trying more painkiller, caffeine, and a tennis ball. Maybe sorta working.

Will was in the area so he stopped by - he changed the lightbulb in the bathroom for me.

It was hard and awkward and ...hard.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I'm sorry, askye.

It's the way it is.

I just tripped over Penny and was trying not to fall I broke my fall partly with my right hand but most of the weight went on my bad knee. It didn't twist, thankfully, but it hurts. So I'm icing it. I'll have to see how it feels later and tell them this in PT.

Today I went to:

Physical Therapy, Regular Therapy, and took Penny to the Vet. The vet cooed over Penny. The Feliway did the best it could so there were no bodily fluids but lots of meowing. She got her shots, I have tablets to tranq her. Wednesday is a test run. Actually the vet said "put her in slow motion" . She liked the vet, but then she pretty much likes everyone.

And she's kinda close to me but not close enough for me to touch. I think she's having some trust issues.

Our wings are not tired.

Hi all! Been too busy. Interviewing 5 people tomorrow. Ugh, I must have read 300 resumes. The last thing I have time for, but really need to get some more help. I did hire 1 person last week. She did well her first week. Under the category of stuff one can't say out loud, damn this girl is huge. There is a physical element to the work which was made clear in my emails, and she doesn't have an issue with the work, so I don't either. I worked with her all week to train her. My crews over the years have included people from a variety of nationalities, ages, genders, religions, orientation, and sports team preferences, and that has never been the basis of my hiring. But I have to say it is hard not to notice how big this woman is, and I hang with some really big people! Don't hate! I'm not judging, just not blind.

Some day I should get my whole bunch together for a picture. It is a pretty diverse bunch. Not planned, just worked out this way.

My receptionist is a 60-something gentleman from Cape Cod. Super proper and dignified. My records people include a woman that has been in 4 Olympics and is a seriously fit specimen of womanhood, a tiny flamboyant Filipino man half her size, a Haitian mother of 4, and my new Texas ranch raised woman. My bookkeeper is a 64 year old grandmother, and my programmers come from Ecuador, India, and Memphis. Then there is DH and my boys, and half the time a basketball player college student or two that is helping out doing something for extra cash.

It could be the variety of backgrounds makes for more interesting discussions. We shall see how the interviewees I meet tomorrow fit into the mix. Mostly I already think they are okay from their resumes, just have to make sure I don't get any ax murderer vibe or something.
