Tea #2. The first mug takes the edge off and tends to go fast. With the second mug I can (usually) start to appreciate the tea -- and the rest of the world!
Good luck with your starting date, pdurrant! |

Too much Diet Coke. Lost count. Nothing else really available during these meetings. Sigh. OTOH, lots of useful information in these meetings. Worth my time.
Good news is, the new gig is moving forward after being stalled for 2 weeks. Meeting on Thursday for a fresh kickoff. Hallelujah. |

In this dirty old part of the city Where the sun refuse to shine
People tell me there ain't no use in trying Now my girl you're so young and pretty And one thing I know is true You'll be dead before your time is due I know Watch my daddy in bed and tired Watch his hair been turning gray He's been working and slaving his life away Oh yes, I know it He's been working so hard I've been working too babe Every night and day Yeah yeah yeah yeah We gotta get out of this place If its the last thing we ever do We gotta get out of this place 'Cause girl, there's a better life For me and you ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEFYkJRB3xo ) Progress... more boxes filled.... more junk thrown.... Good morning, everyone! Suddenly it's Summer. Spring was fun even though it was only on a Friday. One day of long pants and long sleeved shirts, but no jacket. Then right into short pants and t-shirts. Fortunately, all the new shorts that I ordered arrived yesterday, so no more wearing Clown Pants with suspenders! These pants actually fit! Taylors of Harrogate's 'Yorkshire' tea in my cup today, and some rice and miso soup to go with it. Then it's off for a 5k walk to the hardware store to buy a couple of tool boxes. That should make packing up my toys a little easier this afternoon. We filled a few cases with winter clothes to ship off to my sister-in-law's barn. Not much need for down jackets, wool hats, or even sweaters in the jungle. Should we come back to Japan during the winter for a visit we will need something to cover up with, so it will be waiting for us if we need it. One more mug of tea... then out the door! Lot's to do today! Stitchawl |

Congrats again on your start date.
Morning coffee and still trying to wake up, although I've been up a while. *groan* |

A diet coke day. I wasn't up to hotel coffee today, and I didn't bring any real tea with me. But I think I'll take a run to the local Peet's today after the sessions end and see what I can find. |

Thanks for all the good wishes. Coca-Cola in my cup*. To be followed by some iced water.

Just took a sip of my cold in the cup coffee and getting ready to make a fresh cup. It has unexpectedly turned cold and rainy today after being in the high 80'sF yesterday (which was a bit cooler than it had been) and high 90'sF the days before that. I will have to dig out my jacket, as it will be in the low 50's this evening, such a change from the temperatures lately. Well, at least, I don't have to go out and water the trees and lawn.
