A few days ago I had a birthday, which I enjoyed. Birthday's for me have been kind of low key for many years now, but they don't make me sad or anything like that. Unrelated to the birthday, this week has been a stressful one at work with many things seeming to unravel. I almost started today feeling very overwhelmed and out of control, but somehow I switched from that point of view to being upbeat about solving problems and getting things taken care of. How very positive of me.
This weekend is the annual Mixed International bonpsiel at the curling club, which should be a bit of fun. My mom, sister, and Athena are headed back to New Orleans to work, which is great. I was tempted to go, but just couldn't bring myself to do it. Because of that, though, Samantha the dog will be staying with me through next week and I'm looking forward to it.
Recently I made some purchases I am happy with: a paper shredder and a robot.
