Been awhile since an insomniac post

Hey everybody,

It's only 11:30, but then I tried to go to sleep and then couldn't, so here I am. Listening to Streisand, Josh Grolin, Linda Eder on Pandora....nice.

Thinking about stuff good and not so good that's going on in the world these days, and I keep wondering why it is that we (at this house) have been so lucky when there are so many around us that are having such a tough time. I mentioned this to a friend awhile back, and she was kind enough to remind me that we've had our times when it was the other way around...suppose that's true.

Poor Nathan has a cold. He was having trouble being his usual good-natured self what with having trouble breathing, stuffy nose and all, when I got home tonight. Poor kid.

Still high winter here, but not a bad one. I played emergency taxi this morning for a young woman who was in from the east coast on business...she needed to get the heck out of Dodge before the storms socked in everything out east. She hasn't called for me to come bring her back to use the spare bedroom, so I assume she's successfully back in Pittsburgh.

I have a new boss. She's finished her 4th week. I consider it a good sign that she has begun to confide in me about stuff. Sharon has her head on straight and knows her craft. We'll get along fine.

Ella Fitzgerald on Pandora now; a generation ahead of my time, but wow, was she good or what?

It might be time to start taxes...might still be some paperwork coming though. We'll see how the mood strikes when the sun comes up tomorrow.

Seems that though we're pretty busy here, there's really not all that much news. Just dealing with every day stuff.

Nathan is growing and growing. I'll post new pictures next time.
