And the Beat Goes On

I am not really sure what to write about these days. There is so very much going on, that it is tough to know where to start. I suppose I could follow Ken's lead and just do a rattling of random thoughts.

Work is crazy. we are heading into a very busy time on a project I have been working on for over a year. We hit the "send" button in 3 weeks and the pressure is on. I feel like a total slacker most of the time, doing things I should not be doing at work and so on (no, nothing lurid) But nonetheless, I get emails from my boss thanking me for various things, like doing my job! It makes me feel guilty, but then again, maybe I just expect more of me than she does?

Ken is starting movements of moving into my house, now affectionately called the Durango House. His house will be going on the market next weekend, and he will start moving in. In preparation for this, his two cats, and Dave's cat too, will be taking up residence in my house by middle of this week. I love the cats, and I love the guys (Ken most of all), but I can safely say I am a little freaked about this. I have not had a pet in my home for more than 11 years. I am more than a little unnerved at the thought of all the cat hair and litter box stuff. I made Ken promise to keep me well supplied in lint rollers. Can you ever have enough lint rollers?

Wedding plans are moving along, but to read about that, you will have to go to the For Better or For Worse Blog.

Our house is coming along nicely as well. They broke ground 2 weeks early. It was the coolest thing to go by and see the lot all trenched. you can tell where the showers, toilets and sinks will be. You can stand in front of the "kitchen sink" and see what is what. It really is cool. we even have an appointment this week to go look at a 3-d drawing of our pool in the backyard. Apparently the pool guy has nifty software that will allow us to see what it will all look like when it is done. I am hoping that will put my mind at reast over the idea of a pool vs. an oversized bathtub.

OK, I am done for now... I am sure there is more to come.

Wow, don't forget to breath...

You forgot to mention that your birthday is also this week :)

The more I think about it... the more I think pool but there is so much work involved. Enlarged tub is definitely more intimate. Then again, you could probably talk Ken into dressing as the 'pool boy' and harrass him while he's cleaning the pool "More lemonade, chop chop!" B)

You can never have enough lint rollers ... the one most people forget is THE most important one ... the one in the CAR! Cause that's always when you are actually gonna notice the stray kitty fur ... right before you walk into somewhere that you'd rather not appear fuzzy! :)

All in all, it sounds like 2006 is already shaping up to be as great as 2005 was for you! (Yeah, I'm nosy ... I went back and read all 3 blogs from the beginning! *blush*)

I was going to go back to the wedding blog and add a thought about wedding favors, but I'm not sure how far back you look. SO I'm adding it to your random thoughts. How about custom poker chips?? You said something today about jackpot. Is it to Vegas??? Just a thought, random and one of many. Janell
