Happy Sunday Jan 7th

I have been so busy. One of the managers retired Wednesday. So, the director planned to move his office up to the front where the retiree's office was. I also moved up to the reception area at the front entrance. Thursday I put in an 11 hour day, moving, moving, moving, cleaning, cleaning, more moving. It was kind of fun. My feet hurt Thursday night though. Friday it was back to moving again. We filled up five tables in our conference room with stuff out of the retiree's office that we are going to begin sifting through next week.

Yesterday I decided to go bird watching out at Martha Lafite. I was feeling sorry for myself on the way thinking, *wah*, who could I call that would like to just stand around and look at birds? *wah* *poor lonely me*. But guess what! I ran into our old next door neighbors. They are VERY into bird watching. You should see Tim's camera. You'd all be peeing your pants with envy. We had a nice time walking around for a couple of hours. Then I invited them over and we played Euchre last night. (me and Tim won. !!!! hahaha). Any bird watchers out there????? A Carolina Wren landed just about 50 feet away from where we were walking and open up and sang a gorgeous song for us! It was fun. The other cool bird we saw was a Cooper's Hawk. Very pretty. Lots of woodpeckers, Juncos, robins and finches. We were trying to spot a Flicker but no luck. Oh, there's an albino squirrel out there too, but we didn't see it.

Here is the albino squirrel (from Tim) and the Cooper's Hawk. It was the grand finale! It swooped in looking for dinner (and not from the bird feeders I suppose!)

Cooper's Hawk
They saw it last weekend. Anyway. Today, Doing laundry. Then at 2 heading out to shoe shop. John bought me a BEAUTIFUL pant suit Friday night at The Limited. It's really nice. I need shoes to go though, some navy blue pumps. Tomorrow back to work. They are keeping me out there for a bit longer. I am taking a 2 hour lunch monday to go visit Darleen my friend who just started working at Cerner. She's a Test Designer. And, she's already making her presence felt! I'm so proud of her. She has teenagers too, and it is inspiring.

Happy Sunday.
