Cliff Note Version

Okay, so I guess I never realized just how much time I spent doing miscellaneous things, when I'm at work. Since we are moving, beginning this evening, I have been doing my work as it comes in and all at once instead of spreading it out over days. I forgot how efficient I can be :)

Anyway, I want some days off next week and as most of you know, the last week of the month is usually the toughest. I am happy to say this month will not be that way. I think I have ensured some time off with little pile up occurring while I'm away.

The fort, aka our rental home, is ready to be moved out. We've been living with one cupboard of food, no can opener and our china/silverware is all paper/plastic. It's an adventure really but it sure does make answering questions easy. IE "Where is the red long sleeve?" "In a box." "Where is my book?" "In the book box." "Where is my left tennis shoe?" "Probably in a box" You see where this is going.

Softball is softball, same story, different year. The girls have the skills and talent to easily make playoffs but come game time, they forget the strike zone is inside their shoulders and knees and not above and below it. All of the sudden a runner at 3rd with no outs has never happened and we've NEVER spent 6 hours in practice working on it. Game 4 is today, we'll see how that goes *crosses fingers and toes*

Howie is growing quite rapidly. He's sleeping more than ever and is pretty content with just walking around on my bed. His favorite past time is peeing on Erin. He sleeps with a stuffed turtle and softball. He also has a home now, one of my fellow turtle people is going to take him. I know she will give him a good home. I'll enjoy my next couple of weeks with him, she asked I keep him till he's 8 weeks.

I hope to be back into the swing of things soon. So to my fan base, I'll return soon. :)
