Went back to work today. It is always hard coming back to work after a week off. This year I had the Blackberry so I could see all week my email count rising. It stopped at 132 emails. I refused to gander at any of them until I got to work in case there was any bad news or something. I didn’t want to stress out about until my vacation was totally over. No bad news or course but there were two slightly sour notes or at least that was my first impression. If I would of read them on Sunday night I would of fret over them.
Because of that storm last Monday, the commute to work was hell because of out traffic lights. One guy took 2.5 hours to go from the Abbott sign from the toll way to the parking lot, maybe a quarter of mile. I think the roads around Abbott were hit the hardest as far as traffic lights go. There were a couple email of all the bad intersections and driving home almost all the house had a big pile of tree branches. A lot of people at work had no power at home for most of the week. They were roughing it far more then I was camping!
At least the weather wasn’t too hot like it is going to be this week. H came back to work today too and said her AC broke yesterday–really bad timing. Another case of bad timing is Farm Camp and Hollace. She will be outside every day from 9-4. By midweek it will be near 100 actual temps with high humidity. I talked to her tonight and her first day was good (albeit hot). I guess they got a couple cows now. She was excited to see all the animals again.
Listening to some new music, a band (or really a woman) called Tune-Yards. Unique sound. With that music playing, I am off to be creative.
