The Week In Review....

Well lets see....work work work work work (kidding). We finished painting the office and it actually looks pretty good--I love how my office turned out! The rest of the office is a beige and cream combo but I painted my space in a spring green that looks very fresh and perky to me (Dan and Bill just roll their eyes but then they don't have to work in here!) The accent wall is a kind of tan/peanut buttery color and the trim is cream so its a nice, but interesting combination. And on that note Bill, the other boss, is back from his couples mission to Greece. I think Dan was a little concerned whether or not I'd like Bill and vice versa since he's got a unique personality but I think he's a hoot. No problems there, and according to Debbie (accountant) Bill likes me back (says I have spunk!) Its just a relief to have the office back together more or less.

Confirmed dead mouse #1, unsure of how many more there are but they are still carrying off the bait blocks so I'd say there are at least a couple more hiding out.

Actually vegitated out this last Saturday--gave the kitchen a deep clean and then read a couple of books (yes you read that right). I actually polished off four books but you really have to count 2 of them as one because they were smaller books. Read The Romanov Prophecy by Steve Berry, Redbird Christmas by Fannie Flagg, Little House in the Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder and Countdown by Iris Johanson. Wasn't impressed with the Johanson novel....I used to really like her but her books are all the same and fairly unbelievable from start to finish. Was surprised by the Romanov Prophesy though....DI had a copy of one of his other books--The Amber Room--I think I will swing by there on my way home tonight and see if its still there. Redbird Christmas was an absolute gem to find...I love Fannie Flagg's stuff and just hadn't gotten around to this one yet. Little House simply made me want to read the rest of the series since this is the only one I've ever read. Now I am halfway through "French Girls Don't Get Fat"....

What else? Went to Jase's on Sunday for our now-becoming-a-regular-thing dinner and watched a couple episodes of Heroes. We also wandered into a website with this ongoing comic/cartoon called "Making Fiends" that was actually quite funny.

Got a call from Richard during the first Heroes episode so I went outside to talk with him while Jase finished watching the episode (I'd already seen that one anyway). It was a nice talk and its official, he's now the one going with me to the work Christmas dinner.

I think that fairly well wraps it up.....thank you for tuning in.....
