Much less drama since I got home. Whew. Though still plenty to do–a large (and awesome) freelance job, much editing work, book group (where I was rushing to finish the book), all the household things. Mark went back up to Seattle and came back down here. The contractor came by today and we spent a lot of time discussing the deck-replacement project. Which will happen next year, but we’re planning it now. We’re at the stage where we ask for everything, and he says Okay, and makes little notes on his pad. Later will come the stage where he gives me the quote, and then we take away all the fancy stuff so we can actually afford this, and then go ahead with the project. 🙂
Also some bike riding, and swimming, and yoga–the Exercise Trinity.
And not quite enough sleep. I just keep getting to bed too late, being so busy; then waking up too early. Because there’s too much to do. And seemingly more all the time… (and now the fish are glancing at their watches and giving me significant looks, I guess I should feed them!)
