I can’t even believe it. I made it back to the office with time to spare before the meeting. I totally fried my brain at the computer training though. Since I planned to miss the last “unit” in order to beat traffic (yay me!), after lunch I worked ahead in the chapter the instructor wasContinue reading “Over the hump”

Isis on the web
I thought Isis took cute puppy pictures, but I had a hard time finding one that adequately showed her puppiness. Still, I sent one to the AKC and we appear on their site! (Count four over and six down, photo # 30 in the slideshow.) I feel most unworthy as a photographer, since there’s noContinue reading “Isis on the web”
Zen in the workplace
As usual, my mother has the answer to all my problems. (i.e. No. 1) Drive down to the training tonight and stay in a motel. After tomorrow night’s meeting, drive back down to motel. This allows me to sleep til a normal time in the mornings, and not fight the hellish morning traffic. Here’s somethingContinue reading “Zen in the workplace”
Adentures of Isis
There was a casualty of Isis’s free roam after all: she ate the eyeball off of one of my ladybug boots, which she had pulled into her crate. We punished her by throwing her in a lake. Oh, that I had my good camera with me. She hasn’t figured out how to actually swim, butContinue reading “Adentures of Isis”
Rhymes with Duress
I had this very unfamiliar feeling this morning, like I have so much to do that I don’t know where to start and I might not get it done. I think it’s called stress. Problem No. 1I have a training 2 hours away (without traffic) until 4:30 Wednesday, followed by a meeting here that startsContinue reading “Rhymes with Duress”
Just because you’re obsessive compulsive
…doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go back and check. Isis has gotten so good about going into her crate after our morning play sessions. Might have something to do with the peanut butter ears I stash in her Hide-a-Squirrel and Mystery of the Pyramids toys. I wasn’t even on the freeway yet when I realized thatContinue reading “Just because you’re obsessive compulsive”
Road Trip!
For our summer vacation the first week of July, we’ve decided to drive to L.A. With the dog. Rob wants to camp. Or sleep in the car. Fortunately, that’s at most two nights each direction, and we have a nice guest room waiting for us at my mom’s house.
Unacceptable
It’s mid-June! I shouldn’t have to have the heat on in my house!
I believe the children are our future
From the New York Times: The lesson began with the striking of a Tibetan singing bowl to induce mindful awareness. With the sound of their new school bell, the fifth graders at Piedmont Avenue Elementary School here closed their eyes and focused on their breathing, as they tried to imagine “loving kindness” on the playground.…ThisContinue reading “I believe the children are our future”
