I am...

I am...

Wearing: capri pants and a T-shirt. Contrary to popular belief, just because I work from home doesn't mean I work in my jammies!

Drinking: tea (of course). Today, it's Creamy Earl Grey.

Eating: cereal. I'm like Seinfeld in that way. I can have cereal for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Even on the same day.

Listening to: the sounds of the neighbourhood. Birds chirping, a squirrel scurrying along the back fence, the occasional car that drives by. Overall the mornings are a very peaceful quiet time for me.

Craving: a vacation...a few weeks off work where I can just sit back, relax, read a book, get some projects done around the house, and forget about work for awhile.

Worried about: Grandma. Her lung cancer is progressing, and she's going for another CT scan on Friday.

Wondering about: my boss. He's still on sick leave, and I don't know why or what's wrong with him. I'm wondering when (or even if) I will see him again.

Missing: my pool. It's been raining and/or cloudy and colder weather since Saturday, and I haven't gone swimming since last week. I'm hating it. The weather is supposed to clear up soon though. And it's even supposed to be really hot this weekend (up to 90* F). So, I'm sure I'll get lots of time to swim this weekend. But right now, I'm missing it.

Wanting to: read more books.

Reading: Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. I decided I had better read the book before the movie is released. I'm about 1/3 of the way through the book so far, and I like it.

Dreaming about: Winning the lottery. The Lotto Max jackpot this Friday is $50 million. I should go get a ticket today.

Thankful: that De and TK are coming up here from Dallas the week of the 23rd. We are going to travel to Victoria together after they get to Vancouver. While I'm not looking forward to travelling to Victoria for a week (I've spent enough time there this summer) I am looking forward to seeing the girls again, and spending time with them.
