Thank you

I appreciate all the kind words about Uncle Jim's passing. The funeral was today and my sister was able to attend. She said it was a really nice service and she was able to represent my family, which was great.

We had a really nice relaxing weekend ~ a rarity for us! We mostly stayed home, doing things around the house such as cleaning... decorating for Halloween... planting bulbs for Spring flowers (it's strange to think about Spring now, when it's starting to get chilly and Winter is inevitable!)... watching more Lost (over halfway through Season 3 ~ it's SO good!!)... catching up on books and magazines... It was great!

I was pretty ready to get back in the swing of things. My boss is still not 100% but was at work for most of the day today. Hopefully she didn't share her cooties with me! We are gearing up for opening our second location on November 1st. I can't remember if I told you guys about it, but though it's not right by my house like I was hoping (there is not much available up here yet!), it's closer than where we are now... so my commute will be cut just about in half. I found out today what my raise is ~ and though I'm not sure I deserve it, it's going to make things a lot more comfortable for us. Hooray! There is just so much to do in such a little time, but I'm excited for the transition.

Ria's not feeling well... and I'm nervous about her. Send some get well soon vibes her way, would ya? :)

A nice relaxing weekend? I'm so envious! I too planted my tulip bulbs - like you said - strange but true.

lost... i have a love/hate relationship with Lost. I think season 3 was better than 2, and I am glad they have set an end date for it, so they can work towards a conclusion instead of jerking us around forever. ;)

Planting spring bulbs sounds awesome!

And I'm a Lostie too! Why, oh why do we have to wait until February for the new season?! Ack!
