Quick Note

All right, all right. The only reason I am writing anything today is 1) I have a little bit of time and 2) I feel guilty I have written in a while.

That said, I don't have much to say. I have been very busy, but not so anyone would notice. You know the kind of busy: lots of things to go to (from kids' sports events to school functions to dinner dates with friends scheduled weeks ago), bad weather (it does slow you down), school projects (yes, I know this belongs to the kids, but seriously disruptive regardless), and who knows what all, but nothing to show for it at the end. Luckily, I think the worst is over (unless I have just jinxed myself for being so presumptuous.)

The one thing I did accomplish is my office. It is far from finished and to the untrained eye you cannot tell anything had been done, but I know. The desk is clear and several large stacks of paper have been dealt with. The office is now somewhat functional, meaning I have a place to put paper as it comes in and can find what I need fairly easily. It may stay in this state until after April 15th, after which, I should have time to work on the stack of projects in the corner, paint and look for good shelves and a comfy chair. For now it works. Except I may need to get a space heater. My office being in the basement it stays cool (great in summer, not so much in winter). I could turn the heat on, but that heats the whole basement when I just need to be warm for maybe an hour. Oh, and I have to move the little tv in and set up the dvd player. Nothing helps paperwork like our little electronic friends.

The weather is much better now. It has been in the 50's and 60's for awhile and sunny. I can barely remember why I was so whiny when it was -6.

Well, that is all for now, except for one thing. My sister is in Paris meeting her husband who has been overseas for the last 3 months. Very, very romantic. I can't wait to hear about her trip.

  1. Hi Mickie! What's going on? I'm following your blog, but haven't heard anything recently. How are you? Hope that all is well. I'm glad your office is more organized.
