This is just a bug on my kitchen curtain. Guess it was attracted to the light and found it's way inside. It was much smaller than the picture. Don't you love the colors, and the intricate patterns, plus all the detaill? Have nice day, and don't forget to look for the "small" wonders in life ...

Journey noon

crazy morning, late checkin!   Yesterday was insane, I worked hard all day but didn't make any progress on my projects - I had an asap request for info and a trouble call that took most of the day.    And today is meetings, meetings, meetings.

I'm regrouping and rethinking my MITs for today and tomorrow.   I still have to attend two meetings and gather some info for the trouble call which is still ongoing.   I could panic, and get nothing done, or I can figure out what has to get done between meetings this afternoon and get to work on them . . .at least the day is going by fast!

Thanks for the bug pic, Rosebud, and thanks to everybody for reading and posting. It helps. Nothing helped much yesterday as I got a late start, opted to go for a run instead of working and then got distracted by an online political thread, agreed to quit early to go to a social function and, to make a long story even longer, basically didn't get much done.  I'll try to do better today.

Thanks for the starter, Rosebud.

Thursday is nearly over for me and I am feeling a bit bad that I have not posted for a few days. But have been getting through lots of jobs without many lapses, mostly just too busy to make careful lists. 

One big problem - staying up late, not getting enough sleep and/or sleeping in. 

Must go to bed - it is 11.45 pm here. Tomorrow morning am taking my older son for his 3rd attempt at getting his driver's license - we have both been working hard the last 2 weeks getting him ready - just hope so much he can pass this time. Prayers and good wishes would be gratefully accepted!

Thank you all for being here. Smile
