Thank you, Veda...

The good news is that I found a company to service us with digital cable and high-speed internet. The bad news is I know nothing about them and have only heard of them once...last Thursday when I had to ask the Google who in the world would service my tv and Internet in my area. And because I had never heard of them and had no references to go on, I was a little nervous taking the plunge with them. But Friday, my friends rallied around to help me in my quandary, and lo and behold, one of them scrounged up another friend who uses them and she gave me what I needed in order to feel confident with the choice. So I went online and submitted an order for a tv/internet bundle and when Veda, the customer service rep, called me today to set up installation, she was extremely helpful and friendly. That was a good sign to me and since they are a smidge cheaper than Uverse my heart is filled with gladness. It is my hope that I will be able to provide them with a good reference for someone else. It remains to be seen.

In other news, I had to stay home from work on Monday. When I tell you I was sicker than a dog through the night Sunday night, I mean it was not pretty. Not at all. I haven't done what I did that night since 2001, and y'all, I don't want to do that again, well...ever. And I don't want to talk about it anymore because it's a horrible memory.

But my knee is feeling good. Since the half marathon that I started but did not finish back in March, I have been resting it, icing it, squatting and lunging to strengthen the muscles around it, and continuing with some cardio workouts. And it is working. It's sill not 100% because I still feel it a little when I run, but it does not throb, lock up, or hurt afterward. And that also fills me with gladness. I am looking forward to revving up for another half marathon in the next year or so.

And on that note, I will shut it down. If I don't get some sleep this week I will not be a good move supervisor on Friday. And we all know the move can't happen without the supervisor!
