Ten years ago: It was the summer between my junior and senior years of college. I was working at the CH Booth Library (still as a page) and working for Allen at Florist on the Green too. I don't remember if i was working for Loree's Kitchen still or not. Freesia was just born in April and had come home to me not too long ago. I was living at home and playing lots of Magic: The Gathering with my friend Jen.
Five years ago: I had just moved to Ann Arbor, MI a few months before to work at Argus Associates. Things were going really well. I was working on the Sqaure D project. We had a company softball team and we played in on the weekends. Our biggest claim to fame was that in one game we only lost by like 5 points.
One year ago: I was living on my own. I think I was finalizing all of the divorce paperwork. I just got Smudgie from the East Bay ASPCA - he was so tiny! I went to the movies by myself for the first time, ever.
Yesterday: Went to work. Came home. Didn't do much of anything but watch TV and read a bit. Felt good to snuggle with the kitties.
Today: Went to work. Got training on how to use Ethnio. Need to go grocery shopping tonight so I have milk and OJ for breakfast tomorrow.
Tomorrow: Going to the first appt for my sleep study follow-up. Get to go to Sunnyvale tomorrow night for Weight Watchers and get to see my sweetie.
And the next day: Work. Clean the house to get ready for the weekend.
This weekend: Try to rest (yeah right). Having folks over on Sat night for dinner and hanging out.
