I had my annual review with my new-ish boss today. I was worried because, although a lovely person, he has very high standards. Happily, he is extremely pleased with my work and I got a raise AND a $3,000 bonus!!!!!!!!! Hooray for having money to help retile the bathroom!
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Yay Scrappy!
I'm going to get a peppermint mocha on my way into work, work my short day and then have lunch with some co-workers. Festive!

I'm up at the lodge starting to get my holiday on. I think I'm going to swing by the dollar store for some more decoratey things, then some wrapping and cooking.

I'm baking desserts for tomorrow night and watching TV until Tim gets home at 1:00. I may walk the dog if the rain holds off. Then later today we go to my mom's for dinner, presents, and general mayhem.

I just realized that our managing director stepping down means I won't get e-mails from JayZ@myworkplace anymore. I will miss that, I admit.
