Saturday-conclusion to a week

Ah, the week draws to an end. The sun has set, and one of my favorite movies is on. Life is content.
I am quite pleased with my new friend. He is a go-getter, someone who finishes what he starts. I fear my persistance will exhaust and annoy him before we get a chance to meet. I must exercise control. Things will happen, how and when they are supposed to if I am patient.
Ciao.

Ah, Friday!

Only mid-morning, I know. But a lovely day. And, no work for the weekend! LOL.

Gene has a cold, and with the holidays coming up so fast, we have agreed to postpone our next eat-out until after Christmas. I told him about some OTC cold medicine that my mom used, so maybe he will be better in time for Christmas with his family.

Well, work is getting more attention-grabbing, so I will post more later.

Ciao.

Yay! Now I know....

...why my back has been bugging me. Portruding disk in my lower back. Okay, that is not a great thing to have, but neither is having something and no clue what it is! I have to see yet another specialist to find out what can be done about it, but hurdle 2 is done.

Thank You, Lord, for such skilled people in the world, to help us when we are in difficulties.

For now,
Ciao.

Winding down week...

Yeah, my blog titles are a little lacking in originality, but whatever. =)

Usually, I would be in town this time of day, visiting with an elderly friend of mine. He did not feel up to it today, so I went to lunch locally with my dad instead. We went early and did not take long, so here I am.

Doing well in work: found some good performers in the market, and lots of others to wade through. Finance is a rather intricate field to be in; it changes so much from moment to moment sometimes.

Well, I will add more later.
Ciao.

Oops!

Went shopping with my mom tonight, and forgot about my weekly church group meeting. LOL. Got caught up in baking the pizza we brought home for dinner. Ah well, just have to email my apologies to my leader.

Lovely evening. Had a good dinner, found some black boots I forgot I had, and now I am settling down to enjoy the rest of the night.

The gentleman I have been trading messages with is a teacher. Poor guy has been swamped with papers to grade before Christmas break starts. I hope he gets his rest. =)

As usual, will have prep to do for work tomorow, but not yet.

Well, enough for now,
Ciao.

Another day, another midweek. LOL.

Well, it is finally Wednesday. Be the middle of the week in just an hour or so.

Work is finally becoming more interesting. Watching the market is about like the proverbial paint drying. I am beginning to take some interest in it--what else to do? Boredom only makes the job harder.

The holidays are coming up so fast. This week, then a couple more, and it will be Christmas Eve before you know it. I am definitely looking forward to being with my extended family. I do not see them as much as I would like, sometimes.

Well, back to work.

Ciao.

The sun is on its way down....

.....and my day is starting to drift into evening. Work and shopping all morning, then tests and more shopping this afternoon.

MRIs are not so bad. I can see how people might find them confining, and I would have preferred less noise, but not bad overall. The technicians were really friendly, and let me listen to my choice of radio stations. I just took the opportunity for a nice rest.

*Sigh. I am a little tired. The day seems a litttle long, like it should be eight or nine already. I am chatting online with a nice guy. He is a bit older than me, but seems very smart and articulate. Good conversationalist, and likes computers, like me. As I have always said, time will tell what happens....in any situation.

For now,
Ciao.

Almost Tuesday!

Just had to get something in today.
Ciao.

A New Week

Well, another workweek dawns tomorrow. Was unusually warm today.
We finally finished holiday decorating today. Tree is up, lit, and trimmed. Wreaths are hung.
Several more working days until Christmas. For just a day or so, the pain and weakness abated. I will take whatever I can get. I am grateful for it all.
Ciao.

Well, a new week begins.

Holidays are coming up fast. Went to a party today, and ate too much (what else to do at a holiday party?).

Had a big auction of our old stuff yesterday, so I never got around to posting. Never got around to being online, for that matter. LOL.

Time to help finish holiday decorating, so:
Ciao.
