Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You should mix them tonight but bake them tomorrow--chocolate chip cookie dough does best with a day to rest in the fridge!
I am ahead of you-- I actually made the batter last night!
he service was lovely and a fitting honor to a good man.
I'm so glad, aurelia.
I'm glad to hear it, aurelia. No thing wrong with getting ready at a memorial.
Sorry about the job sitch, Consuela. Maybe you can take up meditation while you would rather be working?
but I've been the go-to troubleshooter. I'm good at it. Hell, that's my job for a reason.
Can I just say, spoken like a BADASS. Because sarameg = badass.
I am not a badass, but did manage to stumble along and make sure Franny's bag is packed, sleeping bag is rolled, and etc.
Anesthetic is wearing off. Ow! It's not too bad, but it does feel like someone was poking me with a knife. Yay for advil.
Yay for avocados too as I am munching on one while DH picks up some cheap sushi to supplement my lunch. Love avocados. I need to pack lunches for me and the kids tonight if we have any chance of making our 6:45 call at the school, so I packed an avo for me. Easy to prep and pack, won't spoil. But then it looked too good, and it appears I'm the only hungry person in the house, so I decided to eat one tonight.

This is a brilliant plan
Serenity now!

Theoretically I have a couple big projects rolling my way...sometime soon, if I survive (they've canned two brilliant women from my org chart hierarchy--I'm feeling less shiny about this whole thing again), and maybe that's what I need to do to keep my head in the meanwhile.
But what do you put on your timesheet? "Getting saner--3.5 hours"?
Aurelia I'm glad you had a good service. It should be okay to snarl "Pretty fucking [zen/awful/okay/desirous of isolation]!" to people who know they're not the first to ask you about a loss (which, you know, everyone should assume). I'm sad it's not. Snarling is good for the heart.
But what do you put on your timesheet? "Getting saner--3.5 hours"?
Envisioning long-term success. Big picture strategizing. Improving morale.
But what do you put on your timesheet?
Put down whatever project is in closest proximity
Oh, I have a new house to hanker for. Since it is at the veeeeery upper limit of what we can afford I am half-hoping it sells before we see it (which we have NO TIME to do before the weekend.) [link]
That's pretty, flea. Lovely back yard.
That would be a house worth lusting after, and INVESTING in.
