    Thumbs up I've rejoined the rat race

    (this is more or less a copy of my blog post, with a wee bit of extra stuff because you guys are special )

    So, I officially returned to work this week.

    Check out what was awaiting me on my office door Monday morning!

    Do I have some awesome co-workers or what??

    And, look what was waiting for me inside my office ...

    Aaack!
    Geeze, thanks Boss!
    (Only kidding, I'll tackle it all in due time.)

    It's really good to be back.

    Even though I'm only doing half-days for starters, I was totally whupped Monday afternoon and took a really long nap after I got home.

    But on Tuesday I felt considerably more energetic after my gruelling four hours , and my after-work nap was much shorter.

    And Tuesday evening it occurred to me that I was beginning to feel more like "normal" (heh, be that as it may).

    Looks like returning to the rat race is good for me.

    Cool! I was wondering how this week was going.

    (Who knew the rat race could be good for someone?)

    Well at least the outside of your office was festive!

    Isn't that a lei on her monitor? It looks like they covered the bases. Maybe hoping to distract her from the piles?

    Jo - glad you're back to work. The piles of stuff just means they can't do it without you. Nice to have job security!!

    Heh, that's mine It's hanging up on the arm of the light next to my monitor, alongside my collection of mardi gras necklaces and badges on neck cords from various old meetings.

    Anyone happen to notice the artwork at the far end of my bulletin board, pinned directly above the faux orchid plant?

    I was looking around your office and wondered who that was in the picture. It looks like someone wearing sunglasses. My guess is that it is a cyclist. Probably from CSC. Perhaps Bobby J?
