It really was one heck of a movie! ;D

Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!
I hope everyone is doing well!
I scheduled a week's worth of 'stay-cation' in August, not sure if I'm actually going to use it. One of the people on my team who does the same job as me is out until September, for military reservist duty. On top of that, a second left today for maternity leave, so the team is down two people already. Technically, they can't stop me from taking the time off, we have to take it by end of year, or we lose it, but at the same time, I don't want to leave the team so short handed. I'll have to see what happens.
I do have an appointment one day that week for my car to get its regular service, so that will have to happen regardless.
I don't recall if I mentioned this already, but I had my mid-year review last week, it went well, so that was a good thing that happened.
The week of the 18th, another coworker is taking a week off, and the EA (Executive Assistant) is out of the office as well, and there is some sort of large meeting going on at the office, so she's made all the necessary preparations for the meetings (two-days worth) ahead of time, but has asked me to be around those days as a back up if anything is needed for the meetings.
Should be a fun week. ::)

Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!
I hope everyone is doing well! Does anyone have good plans for the weekend?
This month is a 3 paycheck month, so I'll have some extra cash to stock away in the savings account, and Friday is grocery pick-up day, I'll be grabbing them after work.
other than that, I have no big plans for the weekend. Just get some stuff straightened out around the apartment, and get my workouts in.
Today I was at the office, needed to get some stuff done, and anticipated leaving at 3:00, but it was quiet, and I got everything done by 1:00, so I left for home, and got here at 1:30. I'm logged in, and finishing out the day from the apartment.
Middle of July already. Not long until it's time for harvest fests. I may go to some harvest things this year, and take some pics.

Congratulations on the 20, Chuck!
My weight has gone up and I've finally realized it's because I'm not moving as much working from home, especially in my new apartment. When I worked downtown, even if I didn't formally exercise on a given day, I would walk from the parking ramp to the office to my desk and back, the bathroom was around a corner and down a hall, at lunchtime I might walk to get a salad or whatever. Now my bedroom, desk, coffee, fridge and bathroom are all within 700 square feet.
I'm experiencing more back pain, too, and I think that's also because I sit more. I'm going to look back over your new regimen and see what I can adopt from it.

I was lucky today, though! I had received a $177 check from the state for some reason (overpaid taxes or whatever) but when I took it to the bank they couldn't cash it. It had come in one of those things where you have to tear off the four serrated sides and in opening it I had accidentally ripped off part of the check's serial number.
I went home and dug through a bagful of recycling and found a shred of paper with numbers on it. I took it into the bank and the teller was able to hold them together and cash the check!
I deposited most of it, but I should have used my cash back to buy a lottery ticket!
