Eric decided to surprise me with the Endurance Bag, after all. And on a day like today, it’s pretty much the unquestionable high point. [...]

CJ the Netbook and I are using Panera’s wi-fi service this morning! New experience for me, and I like it! Well, except for the mysterious lock-ups that keep happening over at SparkPeople when I try to enter my measly little fruit cup into my day’s eats. No idea what’s up with that; [...]

Yesterday was a craptastic day. From about ten o’clock onward, I had a pounding headache, which I can now attribute to two factors.

Ran this morning, a bit over 6 miles.
(Got back and discovered no milk for my coffee. )
Babysitting this morning.
Violin lesson in the afternoon.
Try to squeeze in an oil change after that.
Quick dinner at home; I’m thinking bison chili.
Kids to the sitter, then, and us off to the emotionally charged party.
Some days, you need [...]

I’m better about cooking, in just about every aspect, when I’m tracking my own nutrition. That is all.

So in the aftermath of the work cuts, there’s to be a sort of goodbye/vent party on Friday night; it was scheduled yesterday. Finding a babysitter with a week’s notice is extremely difficult; doing it with only two days to spare was probably going to be impossible. I left a message on one [...]

It’s been a rough several days here in these parts. Eric’s company made some severe cuts, and we spent a couple of very tense days not knowing whether he or any of our friends who work there would have jobs from one minute to the next. Though there are still some more cuts [...]
