I can’t find the camera cord. This is faintly annoying. I want to post pictures of my aforementioned project, our hike and other sundries, but … oh well. I’ll confess I haven’t really looked that hard.

I have some beef barley stew simmering on the stove. It smells really good. Hubby is going to be a little late tonight so it has time for a good long simmer. I always start wanting to cook autumney (not a word) things like casseroles and soups and stews at this time of year, even though in Florida it’s a bit premature. We’re still in the 80′s during the day, and that’s a bit of a cool down. It’s been a kind of cloudy, drizzly day today, though, so some nice comfy stew will be lovely.

Work has been slow lately. I work for a govermenty type job, and the “economic downturn” has resulted in a similar downturn in things to do, as well as raises for the year. Oh fun. I find myself fantasizing about all the things I would do if I was at home. Organize this, clean that, bake the other thing. Because I totally do all those things in my time at home now. Ha ha. One day when I’m home full time (God willing), I hope I’ll be able to look at it like I look at my job now, and actually get some things done. One day, one day.
