Happy Monday everyone!
Thanks for the birthday wishes, all! I had a little bit of ice cream and also some divine chocolate cheesecake made by my good friend's DH, which I understand also doesn't have calories on one's birthday. A big group of friends met on the sand flat up the river. A friend did a low boil, we played bocce, alternated sitting in the sun and sitting in the cool river water. It was exactly what I wanted, all my friends coming out and having fun. Saturday I went scalloping on a friend's boat, and Friday night to our new Tapas bar to celebrate another friend's birthday. What a fun weekend!
I will try to tell you guys more fun stories about work if you are interested. Lately the "fun" has been getting the heck away from lightning storms. We usually have thunderstorms that build up in the PM in the summer, but this year the storms are frequent and totally unpredictable. Obviously we can't work on the beach in lightning, and since I have to drive by boat to my sites this is also very problematic. Like Bill I spend a lot of time staring at the sky.
Allison, GL breaking the news to your jag salesman. I first read it as telling your Jag (not Jag salesman) you wanted the Audi and laughed. Enjoy your new car! Massaging seats would be divine!
Dagmar, sorry about your frustrations. Enjoy your new mattress! I'm sure your back will feel much better. It must be hard sleeping at your petsitting clients' places as well, not knowing what state their mattresses are in, when you have back troubles.
Bill, if that is your greatest problem in life, you're doing well! Hope you get some rain soon. I will try to tell our rain clouds to go visit you instead.
Michele, hope your exams go well and there's nothing seriously wrong w your eye.
Saef, I'm glad to hear that you're moving back into your apartment even if it's going slowly. The end is in sight! You will have your place organized and your routines re-established in no time.
Have a good week everyone.
