Not much going on this week.  Our nice, cool weather extended through yesterday, but starting today the temperatures and the humidity are going up.  Today was an ozone action day, but I used my air conditioner on the way home from work.  I shouldn't have, but that's such a long drive, and in the hottest part of the day.  I was bad. *smacking myself on the hand*

I'm glad this week is almost over.  For some reason every day this week I've been counting down the hours and minutes.  That is not like me.  I guess the outsourcing thing is maybe still affecting me.  Everyone is supposed to find out around July 1 who will be staying with the part of document management that is remaining.  I don't expect to be one of them.  I haven't been with the company long enough.  I haven't yet decided whether I am going to be applying with "L" (the company taking over our doc. management duties) or not.  I may want to explore other options.  I did tell Debbie that I definitely do NOT want that position with FACETS.

My sinus infection is getting better, but the drainage is killing me.  I'm still on antibiotics.  Eler Beth is feeling good.  I had to re-schedule her appointment AGAIN, but at least now I have her seeing the doctor that her pediatrician really wanted her to see all along.  Hopefully we'll get this panic-attack issue taken care of before school in August.  I haven't written about this here yet, but basically, my nine-year old daughter has been having anxiety attacks for the past 9 months or so.  I suffer from panic attacks as well and take medication.  We haven't been able to identify anything that has happened at home or at school to trigger these; but I'm pretty sure that part of it is that she has not been able to grieve in the right way for my dad.  Her doctor agrees after talking with her about it.  Also, even though she is only nine she has had quite a growing spurt this past year and I think she is getting ready to go through puberty.  There are definite signs.  So if her  hormones are out of control right now that could contribute.

I've been letting Andrew get away with way too much inactivity so far this summer!  Staying up way too late and not doing enough during the day.  I plan for that to change next week.  I want them to enjoy their summer, especially at his age with graduation coming up in a few years, but staying up all night reading, on the computer, or playing games, and sleeping half the day is not acceptable.  I'm a little surprised that Thomas hasn't put his foot down already.  Well, sorry, son, but things are gonna be changin' real soon!

Thomas has been working a lot of overtime lately, and I may even be working Saturday.  (Didn't expect to work any more overtime this year, but we're swamped right now!) We can use the money, so I said I would if they needed me.  We're almost caught up on everything, though.  Our mortgage just went down a little, which is nice, and we've knocked out a couple other monthly bills.  Pretty soon I think we'll be debt free, barring any unforeseen occurrences, other than the mortgage, of course.

Well, I was unable to sleep and that's why I'm here online when I shouldn't be!  But I guess I should get to bed.  I took a nap when I first got home; that's why I'm up now.  Just wanted to update the journal a little and maybe write in my Book Talk journal a little.  Hope everyone out there is having a decent week.  More later.
