Where does the time go?

Every day I think "oh, I should blog tonight" and every morning I wake up and go "doh". So tonight even though I'm also watching a new episode of HOUSE that features David Marciano (yes, I do squeal like a girl when I say that) I'm gonna blog a bit anyhow.

Pause, just had the first sight of dear David in a long while YIPPEE!

Today's major revelation was that Oscar does in fact have a name for me. So much for my feel bads over him having a name for Spazz, Scott, Ada (Fran's mom), McKuey, and many other things, but not me. Apparently my name is Meow.

This makes sense when you consider that all of the people who call me by name at my house have four legs (the one legged one just grunts mostly). And both four legged ones use the same sound that is my "name" so Oscar (and yes I'm giving him credit for being clever not 'tarded) has learned that my "name" is Meow.

So when he goes through his "Where's ____." or his "Is ____ a good boy?" routine (insert "Oscar", "Spazzy" "Scott", "Kitty (Yahzi)", "Cooey (his hero, Judy's Bird McKuey*sorry for th spelling Judy*)" When he says "Meow is a good boy." he means me. Gosh Golly I feel loved. :)

I'm loving work. It's a grand adventure. My joy at being allowed to do what I'm good at and being trusted in my skills prevails. It's awfully refreshing. Almost every day is a new challenge, and I rarely come home with out some nerve pinched and screaming at me, but it's worth it. That's awful nice. I'm also meeting a few cool people, not quite like the canyon, but still fun.

This week Scott & I managed to get our shed roofed. Saturday while re-rolling tar paper (knocked off the 12' roof and had to be regathered) and wondering why our helpful neighbors weren't around. I realized that conference weekend is apparently roofing weekend. The last 4 roofs I can remember being involved in roofing all took place over conference weekend...that's mighty odd.

Scott's had House paused for the last 20 minutes waiting for me to pay attention. I'd better get to it. *David- SQUEEL* I promise to write more soon!

Take care and keep out of trouble!
