Yesterday was short and long at the same time. I only worked a half day, hit a going away lunch at the Silver Saddle (good food btw, but mesquite grill, not my fav) and then headed out for the second round of allergy testing. This time wasn't as itchy as last but the bed side manner of the nurse was less than can be desired. I've never bled from a subcue injection...I had 30 of them and each one bled...sighs. Looks like I'm still slightly allergic to cats, ragweed and dustmites and really allergic to mesquite. hmmm...I meet with the doc to go over options but I'm not going on more drugs or on shots. I did that for 3 years and I was miserable the whole time. I got done earlier than I thought but was still a bit woozy to be back at work trying to think.

I headed out to try to find jeans. Target stopped selling my favorite brand so I headed to the mall. Macy's was awesome and I had coupons and got two pairs of jeans in a size smaller than I had been...at Old Navy I got one pair for $6.88 (I just need to tack down pockets cause they stick out funny) and 2 other pairs in my normal size...the next size down buttoned but was too tight...so that is good. I was beat by the time I got home but was glad that I got out and walked around a lot. Got home and mel was helping Auddy and Alison with shoes. I played with the kids for a few hours and then I was even more beat.

With the house getting quiet and the tireds setting in I decided to call it an early, early night. I listened to my ipod and read and was asleep pretty early after a nice long shower. It was nice to zone out in the quiet, listen to my music (I'd Genius'd on Blackmore's Night's Ghost of a Rose) and read more in my book. I was asleep not long after mel got home. He locked the girls out most of the night and we both slept well I think.

Today is cold out but that was to be expected. I have lots of analysis to do on some drawings and that is gonna take some brain power. So, I better get cracking while I'm awake and still fresh. I hope to get more work done on the banner tonight..but we shall see. I have to run to UPS to ship off gifts and then get home after working a longer day (make up time from yesterday).
