- 19:54 Man-o-man, Drake makes a mean enchilada casserole.
- 20:00 I must be in an enchilada casserole stupor tonight - not getting anything productive done.

- 07:13 Morning all. I've just changed my Twitter user name to hadkisson.
- 08:13 The coffee-master (aka Drake) is stirring. A hot cup of java is not far behind.
- 15:55 Playing beat the clock this weekend - working thru stack of estate paperwork and bills. Want this all done by 5:00. Will I make it?
- 16:50 With 10 minutes to spare, I've achieved paperwork victory!
- 16:51 One more hour for housework and we'll be settling down for a steak dinner. Drake is preparing.
- 18:28 Sign of the times: neighborhood grocery "weekly" specials now last 2 weeks. Specials are flagged in-store with new bright orange tags.
- 18:29 And, indeed, we got some great deal this weekend scouting out the flyer and specials. Mr. Thrifty is loving it.
- 18:30 Not that I don't enjoy saving, but for Mr. Thrifty it is major sport.

- 08:02 OK I need to get my organizational mojo back this weekend. Being out of town, taxes, handling my brother's estate issues.... it's adding up
- 08:14 After watching "The Red Shoes" last night, Drake's now playing the greatest hits of ballet music, including Swan Lake.
- 08:32 Against my will, Drake accepted my membership to AARP for me. Something about travel savings. Now I'm a card-carrying member. Hmph.
- 15:25 A walk and some yoga and I'm good to go again. Round II on medical bills and other estate paperwork.
- 19:09 Symphony tonight, but we're going to skip out before the Bruckner 3 and go eat German chocolate cake.
- 19:10 Hmmm, let me see German chocolate cake vs. Bruckner - what to choose? Sorry to say I'm not a Bruckner fan.
- 19:12 Normally Mr. Thrifty wouldn't let us skip out on symphony, but even he is challenged by Bruckner enough to go get cake instead.

- 08:25 Dang it, Drake's got a cold and I feel one seeping into my sinuses. Always happens at the busiest times.
- 17:57 At the salon today, my stylist was spraying my hair as her assistant tried some new lip gloss on me.
- 17:58 I felt like America's Next Top Middle-Aged Lady!
- 18:02 This was sad today: office manager distributed the new, much shorter, list of employee extensions. We were 8, now we are 5.
- 18:05 I think I'm going to make Drake watch "The Red Shoes" with me tonite.

- 20:26 Today was better, aided by a cute new sweater with a floral embellishment. I just never tire of lovely florals.
- 20:28 Michelle Obama shows florals some love - it's nice to see. I think she always looks fab.

- 06:44 I dreamed last night of being in Italy - in a fabulous store that sold truffles, purses, and shoes. And I bought some of each.
- 11:38 Heartbreaking day. First layoffs we've had to do in the company's 9-year history. Tears & sadness all around.
- 12:05 I am finding this helpful today - bit.ly/10MXbm
- 15:12 The empty desks are making everyone so sad. Just a hard day all around.
- 16:26 At least some good news today - Drake had annual lymphoma screening and is cancer-free (Was treated in 2004; going on 5 yrs cancer-free).
- 18:22 Home. Yoga pants on. Making a nice dinner for the two of us.
- 20:33 Having recently seen Gone with the Wind I'm thinking... tomorrow is another day.

- 20:16 Comfort knitting tonite after a bad day today. Tomorrow, unfortunately, will be worse.

- 08:45 At PHX awaiting flight home. Other Adkissons got off earlier.
- 08:49 It was a good (if rigorous) trip. Covered 1016 miles-Grand Canyon to Tombstone, Sedona & Phoenix.
- 14:44 Home again, home again, jiggedy jig. Easy flight back to SEA. Good to be home but miss the PHX sunshine already.
