rave and rant: Why do I always seem to have such stable winters work-wise, and then as soon as the weather gets great the workflow really starts gettting heavy? But I am self-employed so alot of work is really a rave. Just wish I was out in the garden more.

rave: Came into the office that I maintain at a client site this a.m. and a client/friend who just got back from CA had left a bottle of Cakebread Sauvignon Blanc on my chair. I work with some great people who also happen to be great friends. What could be better.

rave: Daughter won a math competition in her class. She is competing against the other 5th grade class winners today. This competition goes on to the natl. level, and I am trying to keep her focused on one step at a time and just enjoying it.

rave: Baseball is here, double header w/son's (who has recovered from his potentially devastating knee injury)team tomorrow in perfect weather.

rant: Rescheduled May trip to Zion is off due to work again, but it's ok, we'll go in the fall when it is cooler and less crowded. Kind of want to stay home now anyway (did i say that?).

I wonder how Ani is today, is she so exhausted her eyes are crossing?

Happy day, everyone.
