First off, I chose to do the photo blog entry tonight, mostly because I like this picture. It captures this essence of ‘fear’, even though that’s not really what it’s about (nor do I believe she was scared, although I’d have to ask Beth as she’s the one who took the picture and I wasn’t home at the time).
Anyway, it’s been a pretty long but good day today. My back was still all messed up this morning, but I took some Advil before I went to work and by the time morning coffee rolled around, I was doing pretty good. I never took any more than one Advil all day, and it’s doing much better than it was before. It’s still a bit tight, but it’s tremendously better than yesterday at this time.
So that’s a Good Thing.
I came home from work a bit early today so that I could help out with preparations for supper this evening. Erik and Jill (and Henry) came over tonight for supper and conversation. It was a good time; we’d not done that since before Christmas, so that was fun. Broke out the grill and fired it up (after cleaning it up a bit, but that’s another story for another day), and just had a good time. I also managed to get portions of the house cleaned up (which I’d been meaning to do for some time). So here again, another Good Thing.
Anyway, seeing as how they left shortly after 10, I had a few other things to get done and now just sat down to do the blog entry thing. I don’t really have all that much to ramble on about, so I think I’m going to call it a night and post this bad boy. Hopefully tomorrow I’ll have some more time to sit and relax for a while. That’d be a welcome thing. Not that I didn’t do just that tonight (I certainly did), but it seems like it’s been a continual go-go-go thing this week. It’s not going to get any better until Monday, though, I’m afraid. Oh well.
So all that said, until next time…
