enough already

I have had enough... home, going no where  - shopping with Bob - listening to him complain about his job - and THAT is his one topic of conversation.

No sports, no current events as they are all Virus related... work is quiet for now - my only competition is to see if I can indeed ready 3 books in a week, although the library contest says blog or article as well.  Challenge accepted and nearly completed for week 2.

I decided today that I was going to re-read all the JD Robb "In Death" series - I figured I already owned most of them - only to find I don't own #1 in the Series.  Go figure.  I have also figured out how to download books to my kindle from the library - so Series 1 now in progress.   I also took time to look up the titles and their location in the sequence - I now have a spreadsheet with each title and whether or not I own it.  Heavens I need something else to do. 

I have another book I found that I am 3/4 through, yes, two at once.

I attended a talk today at work, technology issues aside reasonably interesting - I have 3 nerd books to read, granted they are a bit dated but I think they would be interesting and to my tech level these days. We'll add those to the list when I start commuting again.

I noticed yesterday - it was wonderfully warm and sunny, I took the dog for a walk, came home and sat outside, alone.  Bubba comes to join me - to complain about his job.  That is when it hit me - I don't have those couple of hours alone daily to do what I want when want - he doesn't disappear for a bit during the weekends - he's always HERE!   I wanted that small slice of peace and quiet in the sun life was wonderful for that 5 minutes.  Then.... bitch and moan about the job. 

I have all day up stairs alone  but those are 'working' hours.... where I am mostly working.  It's not the end of the day, dog walked, I have 60 minutes to just - be.  I don't have those any more, maybe that is why I take them in my working afternoons - he's downstairs and I'm up here.... peace.

We take the dog to day care tomorrow - she needs out as much as we do.  We actually crated her last week to go shopping, she needs to be in there - practice for lack of a better word.

My nails are officially too long, they are not good for typing, the polish and acrylic is cracking off - I give it another week before I have it all peeled off, my wimpy nails will be left exposed.  Probably a good thing - home boy loses his job I won't be able to afford the up sale nails, I'll be lucky to get them done at all, my hair - home boy will have to eat baloney sandwiches before I give up professional hair color. Heaven help me when he's unemployed.... he says he'll take a few weeks off then find something with less stress.   LOL

I told him - he liked that new company smell, when he was a bigger fish in a smaller pond, a no stress job involves taking orders for the man or woman in charge and doing things their way.  He don't like that much; he may think so but we'll see.  I have offered for two weeks to do a minimal update to his linked in page - he'll have to wade through recruiters calling but there are ways to weed those out. We'll see.  Let us now pray for patience - mostly mine.

All right I'm going to pretend to be productive for an hour then attend a company all hands which is not going to make me happy - I can feel that coming.  Stay tuned for crazy in the house - week 4.
