Today’s Odd Assortment

Ok. . .so today’s been rather random. . . so I’ll just kinda summarize a few things.

• Went to work with lots of energy.  The computer squandered two or three hours from me. . . over an hour and a half of which was spent on the phone with the help desk who was logged into my computer. . . AKA I could do nothing- not use the phone, not step away from the phone, and not doing anything on the computer.  Lost that energy real quick.  But at least it’s all working now.
• We went to Lowe’s again today.  Our checkbook register has Lowe’s about every three of four transactions lately.  This time it was to get some foggers and granules since Cody has brought home fleas. . . from the deer lease.  It’s an odd thing as neither of recall fleas being an issue in the woods before.  (But he’s seen fleas at our new camp.)
• Cody changed his plans for the evening and the weekend about four or five times tonight.  I think he’s finally settled.  It means I had one plan for the evening which turned into something totally different.
• We spent several hours together this evening.  I guess you could call it quality time.  We sat and reviewed the Draw Hunts for across the state and figured out which drawings he wanted to enter.  We nearly signed up for one near Debby’s old neck of the woods. . . but instead the Mule Deer Hunt one is nearly to El Paso- like well over 1000 miles away.  But the odds of him getting any of the four hunts are very slim.
• Unlike Cody, I fully nailed down a plan for next week- I’m taking Monday and Tuesday off to ride the wave of creativity.  At work, I’ll just call it a stay-cation. . .but really I plan to make it a creative retreat.  Which means I need to clean house.  I’ll actually start my retreat Saturday (though it’ll change a bit as Cody gets home and however Sunday goes.)
• I want to See Julie and Julia. . . maybe I’ll make plans for Sunday. . .
• Cody has spent more time of the phone as of late. . . yesterday evening it was over 3 hours.  He made more calls today.  And just when he thought he wouldn’t call Billy about those hunts, Billy called us.  That call is no problemo though.
• The Royals won today- and won the series.  It’s the first time they’ve won a series since the series they played in Houston- of which we were at the first game.
• I’m tired. . . that’s probably why this is so disjointed.
• Oh and I ordered the project that I’ve most looked forward to that I’m working on.  I can’t wait to share it.  But first I’ve got to check it out myself.
