So, I got my review Thursday or Friday. (The days run together). My raise is pretty small. I’m not sure what a cost of living raise looks like, but it’s probably pretty close. More money is always more money so that’s a good thing. The review itself was mostly positive. I was dinged repeatedly for…

Nerds Ahoy!
(Can you BELIEVE I haven’t used that as a post title yet?) Anyway, the geeks are here. I guess they’re back to hexing me on an every-Saturday basis. Woohoo! On the bright side, at least this means there’s one night a week where I’m not cooking dinner (because they always order Pizza Hut). On the…
Wheee!!
News on the MIL: None at this time. She’s been home from the hospital since Monday. I’ve spoken to her and she sounds good, but tired. She actually had to get off the phone one of those times because she was too tired to talk. That’s a rarity for my MIL! Unrelated, but here’s what’s…
The latest…
This past week has been exhausting. Work has been weird, and when it’s been weird, it’s been busy too. I think there are major changes coming for my employer.

Julie has a good idea…
Julie comments on my last post: “yeah…good luck with a less lazy husband. Whatever you have now is what you will have when you need bedrest. So, save up some money for hired help. =) =) Or just have Don Henley’s child and he can pay for the help. =)” And there you have it….

SS, DD
Still sick, different day. Wahhh.
Elaine, the 2006 Model: Now with extra bronchitis!
(But still whooping cough free!)

Happy New Year, Party People…
Impressively, I was able to stay awake this year to ring in 2006. (I’m not always able to). 2006 Resolutions 1) Cook more 2) Get a new job 3) Pay off credit cards, car 4) Stop chewing things that shouldn’t be chewed (fingers, etc) For New Year’s Eve, Gene and I stayed home. Dinner at…
