I am possibly loving my time so far at the Museum. Full days Mondays and Wednesdays, but the tasks are interesting and testing my knowledge and skills as a designer. The perks of being at a Natural History Museum are nice. First of all, its full of so many of the things that remind me of Florida as my home. There are trails out back I can walk while taking a computer break with boardwalks through wetlands and egrets and dragonflies, sometimes snakes and gators. I've been eating lunch in a Butterfly and Wildflower garden with benches in the shade and all sorts of neat things to photograph. I get into the butterfly exhibit for free with my name tag any time I want. Everyone is nice and knowledgable and likes being there.
On the flip side, some of my work at Santa Fe has been frustrating, but since there is no such thing as "unreasonable people repellant", I will just get over it.
Overall, I think the full time schedule has done me well. For so long I just had to go home and sit still and my brain just couldn't handle it! I'm happier when I'm occupied. I've been holding up ok-ish physically, which I was worried about. Physical Therapy twice a week is challenging, but some cracks are starting to show in the wall of this thing so that give me motivation to keep fighting. Still a long way to go though, with at least another month of PT.
Other good things on the horizon ... The summer wedding gauntlet will bring love, photography experience, and some much much needed income (I'm poor! lol). Handsome gentlemen will ask me out to coffee and dinner (a girl can dream). Mary has a three ring pool and Jane has a puppy. And finally, I have two coupons for free pints of Blue Bell icecream.

All I saw was free ice cream.
One track mind, sorry.
Uhm... so it seems that in the great xanga exodus (meaning, me no longer checking my xanga every day but instead subscribing to RSS feeds), somehow a few people's sites didn't make it into my feed reader. Including yours. And I just assumed y'all had stopped posting.
And you haven't.
Sad.
I just caught up with them all (why I left this comment on this post instead of the latest post beats me), but I just wanted you to know: I'M BACK! :)
