Excuse my French, but,
my so-called life!
When it rains, it pours. It's either
feast or famine with me. Just when I was about to
give up the ghost because I was suddenly struck
as poor as a church mouse and began
beating the pavement to
get a real job, I was
hit up-side the head with a
mountain of work. I've been
as busy as a one-armed paperhanger with a number of paying jobs, for which
I'm jumping for joy. Most of these have to do with web design, but one is musical, although I haven't had
the time of day to dedicate myself to it. I spent the weekend working
at a feverish pace on one site and
I've burned the candle at both ends, setting in as soon as my
feet hit the floor and
working into the wee hours, say, 4:30am. Yesterday, I
got out of the wrong side of the bed and was really grumpy because the phone
rang off the hook all day. You all know how I love the phone...
Although
life is a journey, I have no time right now to
stop and smell the roses because I'm
working like a dog, and because of this,
I'm dead tired. Still,
time is money and
time flies.
Happily, Thanksgiving is this week, Nettl will be home for 4 days and we'll
eat, drink and be merry! Oh, it will be
a feeding frenzy, I promise you and the 20-pound turkey that's sleeping in our fridge will be
finger-lickin' good!
Last but not least, the people across the street have
flown the coop. We passed an entire weekend without the Richter Scale worthy boom-boom car stereo. Ah!
Silence is golden! He's back today, but only to pack some last-minute things. But
to everything there is a season and
to make a long story short, I'm ecstatic to see them
hit the road.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out!
Well,
back to the salt mine!
End of story.
