Up in the Air

Looks like my hubby is going for full-time when it comes to daycare for the kids. It's great as long as I still have my job. Right now it's up in the air on whether or not I'll be hired full-time. If I'm not then, it's back to working online full-time again.

And if I'm not, it's a waste of money in the hubby's eyes and I'm really hoping I won't hear about it or it's going to be my fault in the end. Dejavu all over again. Sigh.

On the brighter side of things I enjoyed lunch/dessert with a good friend of mine that I haven't seen in a while. We laughed about some things that have happened in the past. It was great to be able to relax for once and catch up with her. I miss doing that.

I May Never Eat Sushi Again!

So last week I decided to make my own sushi, since it's unattainable in a small town like ours. I decided that sushi sounded yummy for lunch. After making it, I sat down to enjoy it..of course!

To my horror and surprise I bit into a sushi roll that included hair (my own of course)! The next thing I know, I'm throwing the sushi right back up. So now I'm wondering why I tossed up my sushi. I mean in the past, I would have just said gross, removed the hair and moved on. But not today. So now I'm wondering... I mean It was just hair for pete's sakes! What's the big deal???

Now I doubt I'll have sushi anytime soon. Sigh

Basking in the Sun with My Work

I tried something new today and decided to go outside with my laptop. It's wonderful to be able to do so and I only wish everyone could. The only downfalls I have discovered to being outside are, ants, my laptop connection and sun glare.

Lately we've been overrun by ants. We thought maybe it was just an isolated event, but we've learned that the entire neighborhood has been invaded by ants! I also found out my aunt had a serious problem with them last year. Enough of one that it destroyed most of her yard!The solution we're trying is a product called Sevin. It's used outside around the home. Speaking of which, I need to take care of that today!

My laptop connection I've discovered, when moved... loses it's connection at times. This is an ongoing battle and one I hope to resolve by purchashing a new laptop. Wishful thinking however, since there's way too much going on right now to be able to do so.

The sun glare is quite obvious and there's not much I can do about that one at the moment.

Okay, thank you for listening to my ramblings... My fiance will be calling any minute. I always enjoy his calls. They are the highlight of my day. Then after that, it's lunch and back to work!
