Re-entry to work after a long vacation is not anywhere near the top of my list of favorite things to do. Absolutely no where near the list, in fact. *whine* times three.
I'm on dial-up this week. *whine* Do you know it takes a very long time to load even one blog on bloglines? Yes, it really does. I may be doing a lot of bloglines catch-up this weekend. *whine*
Despite my recent post, I am a sucker for technology. I just need time to make it work. (insert hysterical laughter) Monday, I acquired a new, fancy-pants, mobile telephone and can now receive my email on my phone. I love it. I can actually see the letters on the screen. (Yes, yes, I know, I'm resisting the bifocals.) I can also reply to the email...well, at least I think I'm replying to the email. *g* I supposedly will also be able to post to the blog with the phone but I will believe it when it happens. Technology can be great when it works efficiently.
The weather in Wisconsin has been horrible and quite unusual for January. The fog was incredibly dense on Sunday and Monday. Then we had horrific tornados in the southeaster part of the state. Today, it continued to rain and is very dreary. I'm working in Fond du Lac this week so I hope for some time to check out the yarn shop downtown. Yarn......mmmmm, I feel good just thinking about it.
I'm sick of the weather.
I think there might be TWO yarn/fiber shops in downtown Fond du Lac -- The Knitting Room and Woolgatherers -- and they might even be in the same general area (I suppose they would be, since downtown FDL isn't really all that big).
; )
CAN YOU READ ME NOW? (Couldn't resist.)

Welcome back :D I haven't wanted to kill anyone yet, so my re-entry has been a success. I think. The week is not over. They're issuing blackberrys to everyone where I work to. I've avoided it so far. They can reach you everywhere.

Sounds like you've more than earned some yarn. ;^)

I hope your weather gets better! Snow can be nice and bright and crisp, but fog and rain just is bleary.
Good luck with your new phone.

Have fun in Fon du Lac - don't you love Wisconsin city names??

They're predicting 3 inches of snow tonight.
Just when you though we were going to see the grass.

Re-entry stinks. The prospect of visiting yarn shops should be a bit of fun though.
