Spent, Totally and Completely Spent

Where does the time go? I am amazed at how the months are flying by between posts. One of the main reasons I have not been posting much is that work has been pretty intense with our department being short handed and more duties have come my way. When I get home the last thing I want to do is more computer work.

Even though work is intense, I am thoroughly enjoying getting to create publications again as well as expanding my web work. I was hired to do mostly an on-line magazine of sorts and it was rather one focus. Now I get to do many things and it is good.

Mom has finally recovered the newly renamed [by me] Nasty, Evil Sore Like Pain formerly known as Shingles. Why do they not name things appropriately? Even Adult Chicken Pox would be a little more approriately. Shingles just does say P A I N! Life is now returning to normal. We went to lunch this afternoon to celebrate her birthday and spent the whole time talking about politics...yep, we're back to normal.

It was also a good day because mom and I went to Garden Ridge after lunch where I spent entirely too much money. I got new decorative pillows for my couch. I got new comforter for my bed as well as decorative pillows for the bed and bay window and then I got a couple of nick-nack items. New stuff is way too much fun. I hope I enjoy it since I won't get any other new stuff for some time. Dana is broke!

Enough for now...
