'cause yesterday I washed the windows and then we had nasty storms go thru. Sorry, but those windows were filthy. Now I gotta wear shades IN the house. Truth be known, my old boss and another friend, Mike, from where I last worked, are coming down on Wednesday. Marie has never been here, Mike has, but not since I've done some updates and changes. The first thing Marie will say is, "I can't believe you drove that every day!!!!" Now she'll know why I didn't make it in on the snow days. It was 33 miles, one way. But, it was a very good job, intense, stressful, and, sometimes, gratifying. I miss the people I worked with, but, not the job. It'll be good to see them. We'll do lunch at the golf club, yummy.
Watched a movie yesterday, It's Complicated, with Alec Baldwin, Meryl Streep and Steve Martin. It had it's good moments but I'm glad it was free. I think most would label it a 'chick flick'. Can't remember the last time I saw a movie in a theater. Just never find the time to go, or, justify the expense.
I should be dusting or cleaning or something...........
Later.............

Only 33 miles to work? In the Houston area you go that far for lunch. Most people have a 60 or more mile commute one way. I am glad I only worked for a Houston company for two years. After that, my commute was from the bedroom, with a stops at the bathroom and kitchen, and then a left turn into my office with my coffee. Now that is what I call a good commute.
When I first got that job, only one other person drove farther. The first question everybody asked was, "Are you going to move closer?" Stupid question. I told them, "No, I'll always have my house, I won't always have this job." Which, sad to say, turned out to be too true, too soon. Now, lots of them are driving farther to work.
