Welcome baby Jane!

Happy belated birthday, sara!!

Happy birthday, Sox!

I never want to pack or move again, yet we keep working on renovation plans and interviewing for jobs other places. I should perhaps sit myself down and have a serious talk with me.

Happy Belated Sara!

And welcome little Jane!

Sigh. I am feeling super burned out. I need a vacation that doesn't involve family, just R&R. Or a new job would be good.

Happy belated birthday, sara!

Happy birthday, Sox!

One of my coworkers clued me in on a job opening at my org that should hit right around the time my probationary period's up. It would be a 50% raise and put me back were I was, income-wise, before the layoff. It's nice that he thinks I should try for what's effectively a promotion, 3-months in. I'm not as sure. On the other hand, could trying hurt?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Welcome, Jane!

Happy belated birthday, sara!

In terms of rain, I would be delighted to send y'all some of ours. Everyone and everything is starting to feel moldy.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Happy birthday, Sara! I'm so glad it was lovely and filled with family.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That sounds like an excellent day, sarameg! I'm so glad.

Many happy returns, Sox!

Sounds like a good opportunity, Calli.

Cheese to salmon ratio needs tweaking, but the basic principal is good. Dill cheesecake with mi cuit salmon and avocado, nom.

Happy birthday Sox,

I say go for it, Calli. Can't hurt.

This is what I get for internetting before coffee. My brain is Swiss cheese.
