Busy as a bee
Notice the lack of blogging here lately? Yes, I’m still alive, just been really busy.
I spent this past weekend in Ocracoke with some lovely ladies from work. We went down to celebrate the marriage of one of our other co-workers. I will confess, I was nervous about traveling with 4 other ladies. Although we all get along at work, traveling together and sharing a hotel room (read: 1 bathroom), is greatly different. But, I had a blast! I spent the ride down and back listening to my VP tell stories of her adventures in Europe – from lunches on a beach and becoming friends with strangers, to exploring an old, abandoned jail with a lover – I was enthralled with her tales. The whole weekend was full of fun, void of any fights or bathroom drama, and we all came back slightly closer than before we left.
Now that I’m back in town I’m busy making Halloween costumes for my nephew & nieces. My goal is to finish them before Monday when my mom, grandmother, sister & babies are coming to Richmond. One of the final “court” meetings we have for the settlement is happening on Tuesday. So, besides trying to make adorable baby sheep costumes, I’m also arranging lodging and babysitting for my sis, clean my house, prepare for our hearing and continue my search for more income. But, this time next week a large chunk of my to-do list will be checked off and I will be able to add many new things that I can worry over.
