First off, I have to share something a little gross (okay, a lot gross). We have some outside cats. They're strays, and we put out food for a few of them every day.
So, I go out yesterday evening on the porch and see cat poo on the porch, or at least that's what I think it is. I grab the broom to sweep it off, and yuck! It's a mouse, but not just any mouse.... It's a headless mouse! I've heard that cats will bring "gifts" to you like that. Wow, thanks.
One of them appears to be in the family way.... One had kittens last year and only one of the four survived. If this one is pregnant this year, I hope they do better.
This week is really busy. We're scheduled for a conference/training next week, so I have a LOT of work to make sure I've finished before I'm off work for those days. Of course, I'm not OFF work, I'm just doing OTHER work instead.
We finally upgraded phones, and I got the Blackberry 8330. I'm super happy with it, even if it means I'll be checking my work email all day next week even in training! If you're in the market for a pda/phone combo that's not too expensive, this is definitely one to check out.
On a very happy note, my lilac bushes are starting to bud! I love the smell of lilacs, and we're lucky to have a bush right by the front windows. There's nothing like raising the window and having the house smell like lilacs. I promise pictures when it blooms.
Sorry for the rambling, hodge-podge post, but it's my bedtime.

Oh man, cat gifts are always wonderful, aren't they? At least yours killed it first. I had a cat who was crap at hunting, and would bring me live gifts. To make it worse, he was an indoor cat (our basement has mice issues every winter when the weather starts to get cold). Those gifts were never fun to wake up to. Haha.
Enjoy the blackberry and the lilacs!
Ha ha! Good thing the cats are outdoors. The Blackberry sounds great, although I know what you mean about still keeping up with your regular job while you're away training. I can't wait to see you lilacs.
