The end of the first week
Jun. 12th, 2002 08:08 pmThe first week of my vacation is over and i don't even feel like i've been off work at all. i went into the office twice this week and the other days i had to be out at least part of the time. i'm a nester. i like to be at home. i don't particularly need to be with people to be happy.
This is the first week in a long time i've had the opportunity to cook the evening meal every night. And Master has had fresh sandwiches for His lunch. The laundry has been kept up and put away. It's cool. i could live like this. i couldn't even think of a reason for us to go out for dinner tonight. We usually do that on the weekend, but not tonight.
And, as far as i know, we have nothing in the works for tomorrow night either.
Went to work today. Got a little bit done on Chapter three. Fortunately this book has only seven units. One, two, and four are nearly done. i'll have three finished before i go back to the states. i'm not too worried about it. i know i work best in crisis mode. Well, minor crisis mode.
Got an unexpected gift today. The Arab Journal of Humanities gave me another check. With that i shouldn't have to take any more money out of the bank until i go home. i like the extra work. i learn lots of interesting things reading what others write. Although i must admit that sometimes trying to make sense of second language academic English can be a hair puller. On the other hand. i'm getting great stuff for my book on blunders.
Daughter is looking into car rental for me. i really don't want one the whole time i'm home. i can use Mother's car when i'm with her, but when i'm with Daughter it's nice to have one. Since they can't drive it is nice if i can have transport. That way we can do some things while i'm with them. i can drive it home and turn it into the airport there. Then when i want to go to South Carolina, i can rent again.
No more iron to call me. Yea, right, now i have poochie.
