02/06/2014: "Another Day of my Boring ahem diary"

Yesterday was a very snowy day. I suggested to give two of my co-workers a day off as a snow day (we call them skeleton days) and the boss allowed it. It made for a quiet day all round as most people had to be home with their children (no school) and many cities and towns around had skeleton staff or closed their Halls. I have a Jeep so snow isn't such a big deal. I love my Jeep! And of course, with the public being home for the most part, that made the office even quieter to deal with what work is behind. There are days I feel as if I can get nothing done and then days like yesterday where I get to accomplish the little things that need to be done but somehow get lower on the priority list.

Cat on desk - back in a moment.
And now she's tucked safely into the bathroom. Her jumping on the desk means to help her get to the kitty box. The other two cats seem to tag-team whack her en route so she likes to ask for help. She's an old cat and could easily beat the other two up, but somehow never tries to fend them off. Must be age.

I realize that I don't often have much to write lately. My focus tends to be inward on my own aches and pains, trying to get myself to think more of the humorous side of things. There are a lot, but I seem to have slowed down. Must be age? Heh. Easy to claim, but I wonder some days why I don't seem so upbeat. My writings are funnier when I'm upbeat. At times, I just listen. When I sit here, I stop thinking (didn't think that was possible!) and focus on sound around me. It's then I hear... sometimes like a buzzing hum in my ear or it seems to be in my ear and the fireplace (it's electric, mind you) as it makes a constant... air ? sound...? not really a hiss, but a constant flow of hhhhhhh. No s. Water from the cat fountain running. a prrt noise from the cat nearby. soft scratching from the bathroom direction - oops! Need to let Chma out. Be back in a moment.

Okay so it's just about seven. I have to figure out what I'm wearing, take an Aleve (I so ache today) and get moving to get to work. I would go back to bed and just rest, but I'm not willing to give in to the achy-ness. acheyness? Whatever. You know how I feel about spell check and it's underlining words it doesn't like - doesn't mean I'm wrong, just means it can't understand what I'm trying to say. So there.

At any rate.... (said with a sigh and a smile)

Good Day and Good Blessings!
