back from vacation

yup, it’s monday.

unblogable frustrations at work continue apace. i might have to call my ‘difficult conversations’ friend and ask for advice on how to negotiate some rough waters.

other than that, the camping last weekend rocked! there were no pagers, no phones, no email, and no tickets for me to complete! most everything else paled in comparison to the bliss of not being reachable by work.

i had some great conversations, was confronted by my own bs, and discovered that some decisions i’d made a few months back were absolutely the right decisions. i played with babies. well, three year olds… they won’t be babies for much longer. i also got lots of kisses, about half of which were from one of the babies. i’ll tell you, that really warms a girl’s heart.

now i’m tired and have a ton of laundry to do.
