Final count

Final count of pages - 11!

I had one on Sunday, but none on Monday (win!). I gladly gave the pager away this morning at 8am :)

Note

Quick note about the below post - 3 days is 72 hours, not 36. See? The pager is making me delirious!!
Oh, and I'm up to 10 pages now. Which means I've far surpassed any record ever held by my team.


Monday - 3 pages
Tuesday - 2 pages
Wednesday - 2 pages
Thursday - 1 page
Friday - NO PAGES!
Saturday - 2 pages
Sunday - none as of noon (!!!)
Monday - who knows?
Tuesday - hopefully none before 8am when I get to hand this damned thing off!!

Augh

I have the after-hours pager this week. In less than 3 days (less than 36 fucking hours people) I've had 8 pages.

I have 5 more days to go, and I'm already tied for the most pages someone on my team has ever gotten in one week.

As Lovers Go

*sap alert*

If you had told me, 7 years ago, that I would find someone who I loved as much as I do my husband, I would have laughed at you.

But I do love D with all my heart. He tries to understand me and goes to counseling with me**.

"She said "I've gotta be honest,
You're wasting your time if you're fishing round here."
And I said "You must be mistaken,I'm not fooling, this feeling is real"
She said "You gotta be crazy,
What do you take me for? Some kind of easy mark?"
You've got wits, you've got looks,
You've got passion, but I swear that you've got me all wrong
I'll be true, I'll be useful,I'll be cavalier
I'll be yours my dear
And I'll belong to you
If you'll just let me through
This is easy as lovers go,
So don't complicate it by hesitating
And this is wonderful as loving goes
This is tailor-made, whats the sense in waiting?
And I said "I've gotta be honest
I've been waiting for you all my life"
For so long I thought I was asylum bound,
But just seeing you makes me think twice
And being with you here makes me sane,
I fear I'll go crazy if you leave my side
You've got wits,you've got looks, you've got passion
But are you brave enough to leave with me tonight?"

**I recommend counseling for ANY couple.............our lady is AMAZING to the infinity power.

Rewards

So, I spent WAAAAAY too much money on jewelry at Lucia's soirée last night. But, I never really did reward myself for paying off the credit cards (YEY!) a couple months ago, so I'm over it.

We're saving the Cristal for when D gets his cards paid off :D

Spring

So, yes, spring is here. And yesterday, after getting back from D's parents house (where we have to spend every holiday plus some..........sigh) I got into major yard work mode. Nevermind that it was 6pm! It was warm! It was still light out for 2 1/2 hours! And so, spending 2 1/2 hours doing yard stuff was what D and I did.

He mowed the lawn, trimmed up the edges, helping me bag 4 bags of leaves and clean some stuff out of the garage. I took a rake and raked out all of the beds in the front, to get all the leaves and other gunk out of them. Of course, I have perennials in the beds, so they are all coming up and looking pretty, but the beds themselves looked pretty bad. Raking all the crap out really made them look 100% better, since now the plants are actually noticable :P

Of course, I still have a ton in the back to rake out, and plus I want to move some plants among beds, and then I have to till up one small bed for D's hops and some asparagus, and I also need to till up last year's veggie garden so I can get this one started.

I'm still sore from yesterday :P

So happy

Do you know what I'm eating right now?
A tomato.
And it's no generic, run-of-the-mill, mealy, mushy, ripe-only-in-color tomato that you get from the supermarket all winter long that tastes about the same as a vinyl carseat.
Oh no, this is a perfect, wonderful, worth-waiting for tomato that I bought at the west-side farmer's market this morning. And it makes me so happy :)
