So... I'm walking into work today and suddenly a black and white critter strolls across the sidewalk in front of me. I don't believe I've ever seen a skunk that closely before. I backed away slowly and walked around to a different door. Aren't skunks night creatures? It seems I've heard if you see one during the day, that's a bad thing.
I certainly didn't want to take any chances. I'll be really cautious leaving tonight. Yikes.

Rachelle & Roberta
Rachelle & Roberta 2006

Roberta and I went to a wedding this summer and her boss took this photo. He just sent it to her and I thought I would share. Tomorrow is her last day at her current job so I guess he's wrapping up loose ends. Of course, if we had known there would be pictures, maybe we would have coordinated and not both worn floral prints that clash. lol.

Visiting ND
I'm visiting "home" this week. It's been very relaxing. We haven't done much of anything except shopping. :-)
I'm enjoying the weather, but I see it has gotten cooler in Dallas as well. We're headed to the lake today to see my aunt and uncle. We waited until the coldest day of the week to venture out to the lake, as seems to be tradition (at least for the past couple of years). I'm in jeans and a sweatshirt - I'm set. It's supposed to be a high of 75 today and it's been very windy. The wind has died down here in Fargo, but I suspect it will be windier at the lake.
I managed to help my dad with some computer stuff this week, and it's worth mentioning since I'm by no means a computer expert. It wasn't without troubles, I did manage to delete an entire folder, but hey... I got it back. I'm happy everything is working. :-)
The diet on the other hand... not going so well. I've managed to gain 4 lbs this week, but who can blame me when there are caramel rolls (homemade) and birthday cake to tempt me. lol.
Tomorrow is my dad's birthday so we'll go out for dinner for that. (Yes, we got the birthday cake early so we actually had a chance to have some of it before we leave on Sunday... bad, bad, bad).
I miss my sweetie and my kitties though. Gary didn't come along this year. Roberta, her cat and I made the trip. Quincy is no replacement for my kitties since he is such a brat he usually won't let me touch him.
It's been a nice week though. A lot of times when we come home there are other guests around also, so it's been a rare treat to actually sleep in "my" room all week. The weather has been nice and we've been able to have the windows open every night too. I really need a break from work, so it's been great. It will of course be hard to go back though. :-)
