mythicalgirlThis week has just been, well, ugh! I really don't know how else to put it (and yes, English is my first language. Stop laughing). I've had more work than I can handle and all of it due now, Now, NOW! Then there's all the rumors about the layoff, which as of noon today still hasn't happened. The waiting has gone beyond stress-making to just plain annoying. And if got cold here again so The Knee has been aching up a storm. On a positive note I do not have a headache, nor have I had one all week. Woot!
So what with all the stress and work fatigue and pain I'm thinking this weekend is going to include a lot of zoning out. I managed to make a good start on whipping the yard into shape last Saturday when it was 70 degrees. I have more to do, of course, but it might have to wait a week. The temps aren't going to be anywhere near as stellar this weekend (only in the 50's) and I really need to take some time to do a most serious round of house cleaning. With The Knee aching as it is I'm not sure I can manage both - and the yard can wait.
I also have three canvases ready to do something with. OK, actually they've been ready for nearly a month. I just haven't been in Paintergrrl mood lately. I might do something with them this weekend if the mood strikes me. My idea for these is kind of a wavy thing in primary colors but I don't have a real solid picture in my mind yet. These are small pieces though so I may just experiment and see if I like what I come up with. Hopefully something that will work in the kitchen when all is said and done.
I'm almost through Messiah Node by Lyda Morehouse. Will probably finish it tonight and immediately start on the fourth, and final, book. Can I just say that I LOVE this series? I definitely recommend everyone go out to amazon or B&N and read the descriptions. I promise to do some reviews when I'm finished with the series but I'm really afraid of spoilers on this one. I can't think of how to articulate what I love about these books without giving things away. Maybe I'll put some effort into that this weekend. We'll see.
And that's pretty much it for now. My Sissy, The Bookbabe, has started updating her blog again. No, she didn't abandon it. She just got busy. There are new reviews out there now so click on the link (on my links list to the left) and remember, comments are love!
