okra: Quick Update

It was another super busy week for me. I'm still checking citations. Not all of them had been checked before the 1st, as was the initial deadline (oh man, it just wasn't possible) but I was instructed to keep going anyway, until all of them are done. I got my first check for the job, which is great, so I'm still working away and I'm really liking the extra money.

I picked Keith up at the airport last night. I must say that I was not looking forward to the two hour (each way) drive to Kansas City, but it turned out to be ok. Keith drove home, which really helped. I got there a little early, so I also got to stop by and see my family while I was there.

Today was relaxing, and I think I'm starting to recover some from all of the craziness of the last few weeks. I slept in and then did some laid back, but productive things. (I'll be posting more about this in a bit.) Right now, Luca is curled up on my chest. It's kind of hard to type, but she looks so happy and cute that there is no way I'm going to make her move.

Lately, the chickens have been standing right outside of the back door, refusing to go into their chicken house at night. I opened the door earlier to let Mr. outside and to shut the door to their house (expecting them to be in it already), and there they were again. I picked up Lola and carried her to the chicken house and the others followed behind me, clucking and ruffling their feathers. I don't get it, usually they go in there house for the night before it's even fully dark out. And I even just cleaned out their house for them. ??
