I have nothing earthshaking to share today, but I still want to be here, so I'll write down what I am up to, even though it could be considered boring. :-D

I am at work this morning, even though it is one of my home days. I have a project that needs doing, and since I missed all morning yesterday, I'm here to see how much I can accomplish by lunchtime. Then it will be back to the normal Tuesday routine.

I have been working on the project, but I've also been fiddling with my computer setup here at work. I have a problem with the lighting in my office, in that it's all industrial flourescent lighting, which bothers me and makes me feel squinty. To reduce that, I have gotten a couple of incandescent lamps in. It helps, but it's not perfect. I just finished toying with the contrast and brightness on my monitor (making it darker), and that has helped, too, but what I really need is one of those flat screen LCD monitors. I should put in a request for one, I guess. It never hurts to ask! I also set my chair higher, which is hard on the legs when my feet don't quite touch the ground, but it is better for my trifocals and being at the right level for reading the computer screen. The whole setup is not too bad, actually...

I've got a pretty normal week this week, but at the end of it, the work team is coming. I have learned that several of them want to stay at the house -- that will reduce our costs on a hotel, but will also put constraints on bathroom use, and will mean that we won't have that quiet time in the eveing that we were hoping for. Ah, well -- more practice in being flexible, I guess. ;-) They may not be here over the weekend, so that will give us a break.

My tooth is beginning to settle down, but I'm still favoring it for a while longer. It doesn't like cold things on it much just yet.

Well, better get to work and see how much I can do in a couple of hours.
