What is on my mind?.....
...The gorgeous sky after the thunderstorm today, all dark...with the sun shining in from the West and a rainbow in the East...
...The pounding rain and the music it made. ...The smell of the wet forest; it reminds me of how lucky I am to live in such a beautiful place. ...Words that make me tremble, in a good way, and the person who wrote / spoke them. ...Friends that do so much for me, even when they don't know it (because even the smallest kindness counts). ...How incredibly fortunate I am to be alive, reasonably healthy and able to enjoy my life. ...A funny little dog that makes me laugh until my sides hurt. ...The Morning Glories that actually grew in the tiny aluminum wash tub that I planted them in, against all odds. ...Sweet Gala apples.... THAT is what is on my mind. |

I am wondering why the hell I'm at the office so #@^$@# early. :blink:
On a better note, Mare has off this entire weekend (hot-diggity damn! woot!) It might be a long day, but I am going to have a great weekend. |

Thank you, we're off to a party and camping over on Saturday so we'll have lots of fun. Just having her to myself with no assignments to finish or marking to do will be bliss :clap: |

Our 2nd year Wedding Anniversary is tomorrow! Eight years together, 2 years Wed in the State of California.:rrose:
We picked tomorrow for the movers to take the big stuff to the new house.:blink: The new stove I bought last night. The upcoming sale of Mom's house. The two week October trip to Europe. Our daughter is going to be a senior in a couple of months. No wonder I feel like this -->:jester: Life is indeed good!:wine: |
R and I joined the YMCA last night, so we could get some much needed exercise. This morning we were there at 6am. She went to the pools to do laps and I went right to the treadmill. She did 7 laps in 20 minutes and I did 1.18 miles in 20 minutes. It was enough exercise for both of us on our first day. After a week of once a day workouts, we're hoping to increase it to going twice a day. We both need to drop some weight along with the needed exercise. I'd like to tone up my upper arms without turning it back into muscle right away until I can drop some weight but am unsure how to go about at the moment, so for now I'll just keep on walking on the treadmill.

gardens a re a work in progress....and the more I do, the more I envision more to do....
I am really frustrated over this topsy turvy planter I have. Two years ago I used it for tomatoes and they grew like crazy. Now I am using it again for tomatoes and the dang thing is dying....grrrr |
YAY! We don't have to go to the laundrymat anymore, because we finally hooked up the washer and dryer...that's a bonus
But now, I have to do a bunch of laundry, clean out the car, do the dishes, and pack our bags before we go outta town to see bf-ers And of course, it's been drizzly and cloudy for the last couple days...until I actually go outside to start cleaning out the car, and of course, the sun comes out, and it's hot and humid as hell outside Gahhhhh, Moving To Cooler Parts Just Won't Come Soon Enough, Dylan |
I wish I was taking that trip to see other Planeteers!! I could use the time away that's for sure, and some good ol' laughter with others and some new friends. So to all the Planeteers able to go meet up, HAVE A GREAT TIME!!!

No No Noooooooooooooo
The power CANNOT go out today! Come back on! Cinderella's Got Too Much To Do!, Dylan...now has half washed clothes and dishes, and half dried towels...nooooooooooo! Dammit, and I think the transformer blew which means it's going to take forever! |

Shaving my head
pizza that's on it's way driving to GA tomorrow. |
coming home from a family get together to find out my demented old dog had an accident in the house...shaking my head and cleaning without scolding her...it was my fault. I knew she has been having problems with bathroom stuff lately and its the 4th holiday and fireworks scare her....I should have taken her with me or gated her on the front porch. Sighing...
its going to be a tough last year.... |
I love the July 4th holiday. Except for the fireworks cause they skeer my pup half to death.
And people in the area are already shooting them off. My poor lil guy is hiding under the bed shaking like a leaf. :( |
Ok realize I am a little toasted and have just had a bad dating experience, but I joined a new dating site and checked out a couple I have been on for a little while. Same ppl, same crap. No one interested in me or interesting to me. REALLY? Are there no local butches out there? WTF .... trying NOT to get depressed but really. Thank God I have a party planned for tomorrow or it would be even worse. I feel like giving up. Why bother? Women I know locally aren't interested.. and women a little farther out of my scope aren't interested. In a 25-50 mile radias no one. Crap.............

work is on my mind. we are about to have our bussiest weekend. I worked 12 hours today...and saturday and sunday look the same. thank god that I love to cook.

This is a long post...sorry but there's a lot on my mind today...
The last 6 weeks or so have been pretty rough for me. Lots of work stress - some real and some my own creation. Forgetfulness and mental confusion worsening gradually reaching a climax last Tuesday. Drove home in tears - so confused and frightened. Not going into detail here - suffice to say I have an understanding of the terror dementia can induce in people.
Met with my doctor Wednesday morning for my regular appointment. Most of the time was taken up with discussion of the last 6 weeks and the events of the previous day. He diagnosed sleep deprivation and exhaustion. Took me off the 5HTP/Carbidopa for the next month and ordered me to get at least 8 hours sleep per night. Had been averaging about 4-5. Possibly too much serotonin but more likely lack of sleep. Talked with my closest work friend who told me she noticed the gradual onset of confusion, forgetfulness, etc. over the past 6 weeks. (Wish she had asked me about it but that doesn't matter now.) Told her what my doctor said. She agreed to keep me updated on her observations for the next month. She's also a close friend of the boss and yes, I am careful what I tell her. Boss is on vacation this coming week. Before we shut down on Friday we had a meeting wherein she gave me my instructions/directions for the coming week. Then she gave me a lecture related to an incident from way back in March and told me she did not want any "stupid phone calls" from me (see below). Almost did not have Monday off for the 4th holiday...asked the boss if she wanted me to come in on Monday and she asked if I had plans. Told her I had not planned to go out of town but planned to have the day off because we did last year and because the courts, etc. are closed. She mumbled something like she had not planned for me to be off and I told her if she wanted me to be there I would. Then she decided since everything was going to be closed we'd just consider it a paid holiday. I think she has just put or reactivated some monitoring/tracking/blocking software or something on my office computer. (One of her previous assistants spent the boss's vacation week online playing games, shopping and job searching.) In the year I have been there the boss has never been on my computer. We are networked so there is really no need for her to use my machine. When I get to work in the morning I open our legal software, check office email, check online court calendars and check our bank accounts online for automatic debits. I go to the court calendars and bank account from the address toolbar dropdown thingy and the same things are always there. Except for Friday morning - on Friday I noticed the last address on that thing was the homepage for our broadband service. I never type that in because I have a shortcut on my desktop to go to the email account. I have nothing to fear from this software because I don't web surf during the day. I check my personal email at lunch and right before I leave but I won't be doing that now - not a big deal. If she wants to track then go for it - I have nothing to hide. I cut the boss a lot of slack. She has not had an entire week off for nearly 2 years. Also a lot of really bad stuff has happened in her world over the past couple of years: her house burned to the ground killing her beloved parrot (space heater for the bird caused the fire); husband is jerk; daughter going away to college; caseload at work getting heavy and previous assistants have been unreliable; and until recently she was the only income in her family because her husband (an engineer) lost his job in the meltdown. Loads of pressure on her. Here's what happened in March: On a Friday, naturally, a client caused a huge ruckus at the courthouse that spilled over into our office. The worst had already happened before it landed on my doorstep yet none of that mattered to her. My sin was that I had placed 2 calls to the boss who told me the day before she would be "out of the office" that day. Could not get her on phone. Turned out she had gone out of town, no cell phone signal and no phone where she was. I am no genius by any stretch of the imagination but I do know the difference between "out of the office" and "out of town." I did not learn she was out of town until the following Monday when she came in from Court, asked me to tell her what happened on Friday and then blasted me with both barrells and then threw the empty gun at me. Left me with the distinct impression she lacked confidence in me and my abilities. |
Happy 4th of July ya'll

Rye playland most recently gained infamy when a kid fell out of the boat on Ye Olde Mill ride and drowned.
There was also an incident of choking on chewing gum. Dangerous place! |
