Aside from Jorma having to clean poop off of our window sills there’s a whole bunch of not much going on in the Casa de Dewchild. I’m still keeping on, keeping on at my job in SC, which I just discovered is a 70 miles round trip commute. I also discovered that there’s a Starbucks right off the interstate along the way, in a spot where getting off and back onto the interstate is a breeze. It’s like you pull out of the Starbucks and just shoot down the ramp. It’s like they planned it that way or something. Oh wait.
I’m building all sorts of fun stuff at work and because Race Week the Conference is over and I’m actually getting to spend some time doing some quality design work without having to rush. My Mom-in-Law was in town last weekend and we got out of the house a little and just relaxed and enjoyed some conversation. We’ve been trying to save cash for so long that we can’t really invite people over for dinner and beers the way that we used to. As a result, the only entertainment at our house is come over and watch our children run wild, which probably isn’t a whole lot of fun for most people. It was nice having company and I realized how much I miss all of my peeps. It seems like since I’ve been working, I haven’t had a lot of time to make phone calls or blog, or even write the sympathy card that I’ve been meaning to write for a week now. Sometimes it feels like everything is slipping away from me. And I’m just too tired to care.
So, this week I’m going to try to play some catch up. Make phone calls, write notes, get back in touch with the people that I haven’t spoken to in forever, because I feel like if I don’t that life will happen and it will be 10 years from now and I’ll be wondering where the time went. And why I never called my friend back.

^ I know exactly what you mean... For a variety of reasons, there are SO many things that I keep meaning to do but can't or haven't... I still have some wedding thank you cards to get out but wanted to send out these wedding pic DVDs with it which is taking forever -- and when medical stuff and work is thrown in, it's hard to find the time to do much of anything. I feel even worse now b/c due to my re-emergence of the spinal injury, I never got to send Xmas cards out either. :( How is it some of these relatively small/simple things can seem like such an undertaking?
