Mid-Month Recap

I've not been in much of a posting mood of late with the new position at work, the weather, the lack of electricity, etc. Things are finally looking up though. I'll probably be posting like crazy today. The flood gates have opened.

The work is going well here. I do like it, though it has been pretty exhausting. Trying to produce quality work while essentially learning how to do it has kept me on the edge of frazzled. I have gone home lately in a bit of a daze, brain-fried from absorbing how things are done and correcting errors I am naturally prone to making when learning new things. It's like paying perfect atttention for several hours straight. I've slept a lot the last few weeks to just give my mind a rest. Things are improving, they'll just take time. I am becoming used to being in a frazzled state.

After Sunday's wind storm, no power for over 24 hours. It was very "Little House on the Prairie" -- reading by candlelight, quickly eating perishable items from the fridge, sleeping in a non-air conditioned house, unbraiding my hair for brushing, etc. If only Mr. Edwards or Mr. Garvey were around. Luckily, my power came back on last night, but I know several folks in the area are still without and likely will be for the next few days.

Well, back to the fraz...

Storm Day Photo

When the power went off on Sunday, I started playing around with my digital camera, seeing how there was little else to do. The cats were freaking out over the weather, so they wouldn't stay still for pics. I admit that I'm still somewhat shy about photos of me. Most that I post are the best of many taken. Thought this one turned out okay. I may post some of the others later.


Enjoying the stormy breeze....
