Ramblings
On my way in to work this morning, my car was nearly hit twice by drivers who were talking on cell phones and didn’t realize they’d drifted into my lane.
Had lunch today at the Thai House in Dunbar with an old high school classmate of mine. We weren’t catching up so much as we were getting acquainted, since we didn’t know each other that well way back when. She’s really nice. Easy to talk to. Tells a story well and doesn’t gloss over the not-so-pretty parts. I always admire people who don’t pretend they never had warts, but who don’t wear their hard times like a badge either.
I’m taking some vacation time next week to work on our house–cleaning, painting, getting rid of some junk. We’re hoping to have the house ready to put on the market this spring. The junk part is probably going to take the most time, although it’s much easier since we discovered Freecycle. I have a hard time getting rid of stuff that’s still good, but not really something that Goodwill or Salvation Army or one of the others would need.
