4:30 am. Warm beginning to what looks like another hot day.
It's my wife's birthday today, so will be taking her to dinner this evening. Right now, I'm thinking of going for a walk in a nearby park.
But first things first ... Pixies!  |

I'm up earlier than usual again and hope to accomplish a lot. The gym, story research and a bit of housework is on the list.
It's going to be a scorcher here again today.

Got up around 3:45. Checked e-mails (mainly junk); deleted those, responded to others, then came to Pixies. Still here at 5:04. |

Had LOADS of hassle from a doctor on thursday, who wanted someone to go and visit one of his patients and detain him (kinda like a court order, which allows him to be taken to hospital against his wishes!) Thing was, the Dr didn't know (a) where the patient actually was (b) what his mental state was {hadn't seen him for over a week} and threw in a the last minute the guy was intending to cut all his skin off..... and had several knives to do it with!! And wanted US to go get him...... don't think so!
Dealt with that, and a few other things almost as bad... boy was I glad to get out of there!! Yesterday, just too many patients and not enough hours in the day...... got there in the end though (2 hours over time!  )
Today... just sitting here, daughter and dog messing around the house, CA at work ( ) ...... playing games with ViciousTease!! (Fun fun fun!! )

It's finally my Friday. I'm concerned about my supervisor who drank 25 shots at his birthday party last night. Ugh. Hopefully, someone will have an update on him at work.
Planning a bike ride to Toronto Island on Sunday. I hope someone comes in and magically cleans the house while we're gone  |

It's about 4:30AM. Just got up maybe an hour ago. Spent yesterday at a family reunion (wife's family) at a park near Decatur, Illinois. Maybe forty showed up.
Had a great time. Quite warm in the sun, but a nice breeze and very comfortable in the shade.
Lots of food, picture taking, and games. Volleyball, "kick" baseball, badminton, ... all kinds of stuff. Had a good time.
Bad news ... missed Pixies. Oh well, back now. |

Woke up around 9am. Spent the morning working, then a few hours working on a story I've been writing. It's raining outside, so no skinny dipping this afternoon. I'll have to find another excuse to be naked all day. lol Fortunately, I've secured a companion for dinner this evening. Unfortunately it means I not only have to get dressed, but I'll have to cook. I only hope he is properly thankful.  We shall see ... |

Can't believe I woke up at 2AM ... wide awake. Only one thing to do in such circumstances ... log onto Pixies. Pixies, nature's way of dealing with sleep disorders. |

First thread I read today was from Sharni. I'm pretty sad about the fact that the site is on "borrowed time". I'm going to miss logging in every day.

3:17am Just winding down from another day in paradise. I don't want to think about Sunday and having to go home. I don't want to think about Pixies leaving either. As a fairly new member, I haven't had a chance to meet many here so I hope the yahoo group will get a good response. I'll be checking it often. *sigh* Well, off to bed. Good night Pixies ... |

Well had a shit of an afternoon...
Spent the last 3 hours in the ER at the local hospital....
The youngest son spilt boiling hot soup into his lap....amongst the screams of both him and his brother..i worked out what had happened and quickly scooted him toward a cold shower.
Got Bilbo to come and pick us all up and off to the ER we went....him screaming with pain...
Got him there they put a drip in....(i've found how upsetting it is to be totally helpless to take the pain away from your child)...some Morphine and a much happier kid ensued....
The part that suffered the worst damage, his penis, blistered and extremely tender as you could imagine. But at least it's not as bad as it could have been!!
What a bitch of a day

Oh man, Sharni! I can only imagine the poor little guy's pain!! OW!
I am plugging away at my article, trying to find contacts who understand the difference between GMO regulations in Europe and North America. Not as easy as I thought!
I'm picking up a new bikini today! Yay me! And, of course, I'll hit the gym so I can wear the thing! |

Sharni, with that job this is the first time I read of your son's accident. My heart and prayers go out to him and to you and Bilbo as well. With seven kids I know the feeling of helplessness when one of them is hurting and you can't really do anything to take the hurt away. Here's hoping he's doing good now.
Me, right now. Just playing some games before church. Have to help at the service today. Then ... I want to relax.
