Mr. Sun has arrived!!!! And he is making me SOOO happy with his presence.

He actually DID show up yesterday for a short time in the late afternoon, early evening.

But today? He is here in FULL swing!!! And ready to make me a happy camper!!!

Dave? He loves the rain. THAT makes him smile.

Me? Give me Mr. Sun and all is well. I have a bounce to my step. I have energy. I LOVE Mr. Sun!!!!

I worship him!!!

I would have his baby if he didn't threaten to burn me to a crisp if I get too close to him.

Love hurts sometimes.

Work yesterday was pretty damn good. I was SOOOO busy. But I put on my "gonna get stuff done as fast as possible" hat and I cranked the work outta here.

I was one mean, lean, working machine!!!!

I felt bad for the poor mailman who had to come in and gather all those letters and reports I put in the post.

Today is no better. I didn't actually meter the mail I created after noon yesterday, so I did it this morning and my mail bin is FULL again.

Woot!!!

No one can tell ME that I don't earn my keep.

At least this week!!!

Bossy Man must have sent me at least 40 files yesterday and told me that it was all I was probably going to get until next Monday since he was STILL planning on taking time off this week. (whatever. I'll believe it when I see it!!!)

He figured it was gonna be enough work to keep me busy until Monday.

Yeah, right.

I nearly did it all, baby!!!

I currently have ONE file left to transcribe and that's IT. I will be caught up with THAT stuff.

However, I do still want to finish my filing, scanning, making of files, closing of other files, and general stuff around the office, such as ordering supplies, figuring out what enclosures Bossy Man hasn't seen fit to give me yet for letters that are still sitting here.

So, yes, I am still busy. But it's mostly busy work and I can take my time at that.

After work, I went to Dave's house since he was still pretty upset with me. I didn't know WHY he was upset or even HOW BADLY he was upset until I got there and found out exactly what was going on.

Yeah. Basically it comes down to this: He is insecure with me still.

So, when I went out with my good friend, Paul (who happens to be a MAN) he was NOT too pleased about it.

But I explained everything to him, that Paul is a good friend that I have known for 16 plus years, that Paul is the one that taught me all that I know about computers and that is a common interest we have, and that I am still doing work for Paul, even though I have not actually invoiced him for the work done yet. And then Dave understood that, yes, I will be hanging out with Paul and we will have fun together. And it's nothing to do with Dave. And no threat at all.

So, in a nutshell, it's all fine and, while I do not like having to EXPLAIN myself to Dave, I understand where HE is coming from, too.

Anyway, so I hung out with him most of the night, just talking about stuff.

I did go home once to let my dogs out. They had been crossing their legs since I left that morning, so they were ready to see me.

I also made the pasta salad that I am bringing to Doug and April's tomorrow night for our fish fry. And I put together most of the baked beans that I am bringing to Sam's tonight for the baby shower. Then I ran back over to Dave's house to finish our discussion, which actually lasted the rest of the evening. I got home after 10:00.

I didn't have time to cook up the bacon for the beans, so I need to figure out how the hell I am going to do THAT today at 3:30 after work, when I RACE home to let the dogs out, get my stuff together, wrap the baby quilt I made, get the cooler in the car, along with my wine and Dave's beer, and THEN get all the way across town (about 20 minutes or so) to Sam's house to help her put food together before everyone shows up at 5:00.

Yeah, I already figured it just ain't gonna happen and I am NOT going to stress myself out over it.

Yeah, right.

I'm a Virgo. A perfectionist. I HATE being late.

But I need to remember that this is for SAM. Sam, who is ALWAYS late. And whenever she has people over for dinner at, say, 6:00, we NEVER eat before 8:00.

She is habitually late, so I need to remember that.

I still have not gotten my lawn mowed. And the grass is getting to epic lengths!!!

And my city just passed an ordinance that we Baxterites cannot have grass longer than six inches or the city will fine us.

Whatever.

it's been raining for the past week. And I work five days a week. And my ex has had my mower for nearly two weeks.

So, go ahead and fine me, bitches!! I dare you!!!!

I had planned on mowing last night, but Dave took all my time up for that. I think dealing with him was more important than a shaggy lawn.

I also have a deck that is halfway done. And a house that needs to be.....well....probably torched!!!! But really, just needs to have stuff removed from it.

and I have divorce papers I need to have completed with Jim's information. He needs to get me what I need, but first I need to TELL him what it is that I need.

Yeah. Too busy to be sitting here, don't you think?

LOL

Today. I will get all this done today.

Yeah, right.
