Oh, man, Steph. Glad Tim is OK, and I hope you're feeling good-or-better this morning.

Sheryl, I hope you all can find some actual, sustained relief for yourselves and Mr. S.

Gud, congrats on the new house! Or, at least, it sounded pretty close to a done deal. It's lovely. Love the woodwork.

Always a pleasure to see Nilly, and it is nice to know you're skimming. ::waves::

That's what my brain has managed to remember for comment, but I think things all the time when I read. I mean, good things. You know.

I have a crap ton of work to get done this week. So, I guess I'll get on that.

I had a cold over the weekend (negative for Covid), and DH had a pancreatitis flare-up on Sunday... he basically had one week of no pain, then it was back. So frustrating. Doctor this morning.

Also, I need to get our budget reined in. I think planning that will be my weekend project for next weekend. But also it is my birthday weekend, so lots of meals out with people, yay!

But before that... work.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Mac did the paperwork for his new job yesterday, got his schedule through next Tuesday and today starts day 1 of 3 of computer training sessions.

Very exciting stuff. First paycheck 10/19 and this begins the paying me back.

That's awesome, msbelle!

Our wings are not tired.

Very good to hear, msbelle.

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

Go, mac!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I did not know you could superglue lungs.

Younger daughter is working on getting an apartment as she has decided not to come to Minnesota with us. She's been working as a software engineer for about a year now so it feels like she's ready to be on her own. That's the big drawback to moving North. OTOH, older daughter is planning to move North in the future because of heat and rights.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Shots fired outside of my work building. We're supposed to shelter in place.

Also, RIP Loretta Lynn.
