Wow Jeanie - you're very lucky to be able to that!  I guess I wouldn't be so annoyed if this person didn't seem to be taking advantage.  Marie - it sounds like you've come up against some similar frustrations.

I'm supposed to be packing for my trip tomorrow.  I don't like to pack anyway but this is one trip I am just not interested in taking.  I have an inkling that it's gonna suck.  On a positive note - I do have dinner plans with Dr. T on Wednesday.  He's a lot of fun so it will be good.  He has a farm in another state where they have Clydesdale horses!  I would love to go visit his family there.  I adore his wife - she is a doll!  So anyway, here I am playing games, visiting BZ sites and blogging.  All so that I can procrastinate on the packing.  I'll be back on Thursday 17th - late.

It's gotten hot here.  Anything higher than 65 is hot to me.  I'm a polar bear I guess.

Have a good trip, Holliday. I hate packing, too ... it makes me whiny. And yes, I am lucky at my job. On the other hand, I always have to make sure my work is done, so it's not like I'm getting away with anything.

Hi Holliday. I have been sick all week so I didn't get a chance to read your blog before today. I hope your trip was worth the effort and I am glad that you are home safe and sound now.

The farm sounds WONDERFUL!
