Case's paintings make me happy! Been away for a couple of years, and just finally found them here for the first time! Beautiful work, neighbor!

lol...I should be, but there's this tired part of me that wishes I was still in the land of nod.

I'm happy that my kids and husband have left for the day so I have peace and quiet now.

Accepted an offer at the State of Montana DoA. Woohoo! I'm employed again, after only about a month of looking... Either I'm extremely lucky or the economy isn't quite as shit as the alarmism makes it seem.
