First Day O'Work

Whooo Hoooo! It's 8:30 am and I'm on my first temporary assignment. I've been told that it will be slow today which is why I'm doing the blog thing. I cannot remember the last time I woke up at 5:30 am for the morning rush hour around Baltimore's Beltway, which by the way is still as goofy as ever. Nothin' like sitting in traffic slurping Earl Grey Tea at 7 am listening to all the accidents on the radio traffic report. I got permission from my boss before doing this so it's all approved and I'm not being a horrid employee.

I spoke to my sister last night and it occured to me that I am very fortunate. I have a sister that loves me. When I was growing up I thought she hated me because she would always walk faster than I could (we're twins-she's 19 minutes older than I am) walking to and from school. She was smarter and more popular, hung out with all the "cool" people in high school, was a cheerleader-she was the opposite of me. I was the "theatre geek", the loner, had a small defined circle of friends that I rarely deviated from, I was a horrid student and never really applied myself. And so after all these years I've learned that she never hated me and in fact loves me very much. I guess things appear differently when you're older. I never knew that she cared so much, and it humbles me. I was not aware that there was so much emotional support around me-D'OH- Pulled a "Homer" on that one.

So the real estate agent is coming on friday to look at Casa Bea to tell me:
1- What I have to do to get my house sold
2- The price of the lovely, yet repair ridden house
We'll see what happens.
