I’m back to blogging after a short hiatus for most of December. Between a webhost move and a general lack of inspiration, not much came out of me to blog about. Anyway, a little of what has been going on with me over the past month or so.
On Nov. 27th, I became official at my job (I had been a temp employee since July). For now I’m only working half time there, but its more than enough to live comfortably. My boss is trying to find more budget, because she’d like me there full time. Ideally, I think I’d like to get to .75 (or 30 hours per week).
I picked up a pretty nasty bug a couple weekends ago that had me pretty well whipped for my entire 4 day weekend. Though I suppose its good that I didn’t have to take any sick days for it.
Last weekend was the annual Eugene Santa Pub Crawl, so I went down for that. By the time Saturday night rolled around, my heart wasn’t quite in it, but I still had a good time. Some pics are here.
Saturday morning my grandmother (dad’s side) had a stroke. I’m pretty close to my grandparents as I lived in their mother-in-law’s suite for almost 8 years. Anyway, I got to see her on Sunday afternoon for a little bit. She recognized my dad and I and was able to talk to us. I talked to my dad last night and she’s out of ICU and the bleeding in/on her brain has stopped. So medically she’s doing pretty good. The doctors think she’ll be in the hospital for a week, but that means she may be home before Christmas as long as things continue to go well.
