Whatever I Feel Like

I’m slowly coming out of my funk. Thanks to everyone who wrote to me and/or left comments here. It was truly appreciated.

Things at work are really rough. I used to have a whole team of people working for me. This week, the last two of them gave their notice. I’ll be able to replace those bodies, though, so it’s not all horrible, but it will be a pain getting the new people up to speed with no one left here who is intimate with code.

I’ve been getting various weird skin ailments. First it was the poison ivy – which turned out to not be a very bad case at all, hardly any itching!. Then I got some weird rash between my boobs. I’ve been treating it with anti-fungal stuff and it seems to be getting better. So basically I had jock itch between by tatas. Who wants a piece of me??? Now I’ve got really dry, itchy skin on my eyelids and on the outer corners of my eyes. What in the world?

Speaking of weird skin stuff – Grace has something going on, too. The underside of her snout has these weird lumpy things – I have no idea how to describe it really. Which is hell on a Google search. How am I supposed to be an Internet Veterinarian if I can’t come up with the right search terms? Seriously.

We had our family portraits taken this past Saturday. There were 14 of us and we all wore white shirts and blue jeans. Cute, right? Well, I think it looked okay in the pictures, but walking through the mall was a whole ‘nother story. I’m going to post that soon, I swear. I’ll post the pics, too.

Until then…

What a week this has been. Very tumultuous at work – we’ve laid off about 15% of our workforce at the corporate office and my two guys gave their notice. But enough about that. Life goes on and I’m sure everything will work out exactly the way it is supposed to.

Tonight Rob and I are going to the Comedy Stop at the Tropicana in Atlantic City. We definitely need some humor to take us into the weekend. Before we head down there, though, we are dropping Grace off at a kennel pet resort and taking our kids to my parents’ house. After the show, we’re going to my sister-in-law’s family shore house where we’re spending the rest of the weekend. Can.not.wait to get down there.

Tomorrow we’re going to Picture People to get family portraits taken for my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary. That should be fun; there will be between 13 and 15 of us depending on if my parents decide to get in the picture – crammed into a mall portrait studio. This will be blogging material if nothing else.

And I just found out the best news of the week – we were originally coming back from the shore early because we had to come into work on Sunday – and now we don’t have to do that. Yes! I really need the full two days off this week.

And how was your week? Anything fun planned for the weekend?
