And 4 chickens that delivered me a fresh breakfast each morning:

I had hoped to do a bit of exploring, but the rain didn’t make that too conductive. We only got out for one short walk the entire time I was there. Instead, I spent a lot of hours in front of the computer trying to catch up on all the work that I needed to do. I did put a dent into some of it, but I also took on another short term project — like I really need any other work these days…

It’s not that I don’t enjoy what I’m doing, it’s just that I have a bit more on my plate than I planned to have. The consequences of taking on a new project.

This past Friday I had a full day to work without interruption because I was house / dog sitting for Dana / Dexter:

It worked out well (well at least if I want to continue not to have a life) in that I got a good deal of work done. It’s a good, quiet place to get things done. Now if I can keep up with this blog — although it isn’t all that exciting letting people know you are sitting in front of a computer all day :)
