Things are looking up --

I've begun to feel just fine again these days when I get up in the morning.  Of course, once I have to sit down all day long at work, my back DOES begin to rebel.  But . . . the weekend will be here soon and I'll be able to stand or lie down often, so I hope by next week when Mark gets home I'll be all better.  (And I'm sure he hopes so too!)

They're going to be moving his rig down to Galveston this weekend and he says it will have to stay down there for quite a while.  It looks like he may well have to drive all the way down there to work until he retires the end of next year!  Yuk!  I was hoping they would put the thing into repair somewhere here in Louisiana so that going and coming would be nice and short for him.  But noooo -- Galveston it's going to be.  Well, he's probably less p--d off about it than he would have been if he didn't know he'll only have to drive back and forth another 17 or 18 times! 

On the plus side, though, Mark gets home on July 3 and I'm off on July 4 and I think I'll take off July 5 as well, since John will be out of town at another dog competition then anyway.  So we'll have a nice 4-day weekend!  No idea what we'll be doing, but having 4 days together to do . . . "whatever" . . . is just great!  And I'm pretty sure I'll be able to function normally again by then --- even BETTER!

Life is good!
