Which is better than the drought conditions we started having last year about this time. It is nice not to have to water the grass.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday is Caroline&#8217;s busy running around day and since she got me up at 5 AM I had hoped she would take a nap. 15 minutes in the car and she was good to go again. I finally got her into bed and staying there about 9 pm. I went to bed about 10 since I had a truncated nap that day. This morning I woke up on my own about 7:00 and heard Caroline playing in her room. She came downstairs about 7:45 giving me enough time to finish the edit that Peter had asked me to on his Star Trek Mirror Universe short story which he is completing as I type this. I can&#8217;t wait to read the ending of this one which I will be able to do today and the rest of the world has to wait until sometime next year I think. They will, however, get the story in one shot rather than pieces which can be fun and frustrating all at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>Shoreleave is a week away. I have a lot to do this weekend so I will try to update but may drop out of the blog-sphere for a bit but I will be back.<\/p>\n<p>Sheila closed on her house and officially now owns a doorknob with a condo attached that she is going to be paying for for a while. I am so proud of her.<\/p>\n<p>Not much else I can talk about since there are a number of projects that fall under those pesky non-disclosure agreements.<\/p>\n<p>I find lollypop to be a funny word (What can I say I had that song running through my head this morning for some very strange reason.)<\/p>\n<p>I am grateful that the closing went well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bright yellow ball is back and warming up the day rapidly.
