Great reviews from work.
Current work project almost done...but they want me back for another one!
Next project I can work from home and on a flexible schedule.
Home will be a new place by then.
+ Three good shows coming up!

surviving Sandy with minimal damage

Adam coming and weathering the storm with me

'bonus' days off to clean and cook...gasp yes I scrubbed several rooms of my apartment

No work until monday (although I would rather be in school now then during spring break :/

Inappropriate juice aka reggie juice as my reward for cleaning and being domesticated and shit

my 'chicken little moment' yesterday afternoon and filling all sorts of shit to freeze....my dad has no power and came to pick them up so he has ice for his fridge

my new desk! I'm in love with it...although still need a chair for it

hearing that so many friends are safe and handling their losses in stride

love, friends, family, boardies

[Jersey Thug]

- patience to ignore or at least bite my tongue when people make fool comments about the "hype" surrounding the storm that destroyed so many lives, their disappointment about Halloween being postponed, etc. really, folks? think before you speak/type, please.

- the ability to open our home to loved ones, and that we're all getting along pretty well so far

- the adorable miss Lucy who keeps us all laughing at her snorts and deep sighs and cuteness

- electricity. sometimes you really don't know what you've got 'til it's gone.

- the folks who are working hard to keep things moving in the right direction through all this.


- hope for the shore towns that wasn't there a day ago. it will take years to recover, but a lot of it will recover and that is huge

[TEO]

Being here to experience this day.

[Jwheelz]

-great news from friends affected by the storm, that things might not be quite as bleak as they looked just a couple days ago

-Getting to enjoy the culmination of several months of hard (not really) work raising money for a good cause with drinks and catered dinner this evening

-Possible fun plans maybe three weeks in a row including my first concert on my own in several years (with my aide) next week in Port Chester

My clients made me really happy today. I was meeting with one, a really lovely lady, and she says to me, "Wow- your hair looks so beautiful today! It's really something! You're an image, like the Virgin Mary!" Three of my coworkers almost pissed themselves.

Texts.

Erin's list, the kids, getting something done today that I needed to do for a long time and the ball is finally in motion. And balls.

What isn't? Seriously, that would be an easier question right now.
Even that's pretty easy, it's this "superfood" energy bar that tastes like compacted 3 day old grass.

[Ginger Snap]

A fantastic walk this afternoon, a bountiful farm share this week, Jerry likes roasted beets, I have really great friends that totally know my strengths, and apparently I'm adored? Huh, who knew.

And a very good friend of mine has been moving in a really positive and incredibly creative and productive direction, even with oh man so many challenges and obstacles to contend with. Just really happy for her and where she has gotten to.

[Jersey Thug]

- an empty house today to get some things done, and tonight to enjoy a date with my husband even if we're too exhausted and sick to do anything but enjoy Asian takeout and watch a movie on the couch

- girlfriends with talents that suit my current needs

- generous, caring friends who respond more like family than my actual family at times

- access to the island slowly opening up, even if only for a few...it gives hope

- the shelter here and how everyone is coming together to help others less fortunate...even the pets displaced by Sandy

- this adorable little face

[Jabadoodle]

Got a used Kindle for super-cheap and now a reading list I'm excited about!

This made me !!!

And yes, friends are accounted for and I am hoping for a safe night for all.

Pups, snow, wine, a new Criminal Minds after a pretty damn good Sons of Anarchy, and clean sheets. Yep, I am blessed. Although, the next time I make Pad Thai it will be on my own terms, not from a super awesome organic mix.

my blood test results from thursday reflect that every single coronary related metric are down, well below the acceptable limit!

this was achieved through the use of lipitor, and a concerted effort to completely change my daily consumption patterns; what, how and when i eat. the lipitor dose has now been halved! my md is thrilled and so am i!

way to go, adam!

i have been at loose ends, trying to think of a good knitting project and this morning i finally figured it out. off to get out my needles and yarn!

[insolent cur]

thanks cj!! have fun knitting! if you're ever at a loss about what to knit, i can happily put you in touch with my mom. she's been knitting for over 70 years and teaches at these various weekend knitting gatherings, as well as locally around the nh seacoast. and yes...she's on the book of face. i tried to learn...that shit is a lot more complex than my mom makes it look.

[Lemireacle]

A great time last night playing with the South Mainiacs at a benefit to restock for the holidays the local food banks who cleared their shelves for the victims of Sandy!
The set being well received by several of the other bands on the bill and their respective crowds.

Post-gig boardie time at Red Square!

A clean on the inside Jetta, now with four new tires!

Seeing some family next Friday for a niece's wedding.

Friday and Monday off this weekend! Oh yeah!!
