Last post before returning to work

This LOA went by too fast! I got a lot done but there is so much still to be done!
I DID get these things done:
- bead room makeover - still in the process of organizing
- cyst on chest removed
- cap on tooth
- organize one side of Library cabinets
- took care of most papers/documents
- my laundry is up to date

Want to do more:
- spend time in the bead room
- exercise - did some but did not get into a routine. Housework was good exercise.
 - eat well - lots of veggies
- determine fate of spare electronics
- organize remaining closets

Never got to:
- outside garden - and now it has snowed
- organize clothing

Probably lots more...
I also DID relax and feel completely detached from work. I sort of missed the parties but not as much as I expected. Trouble is, I got so out of the habit of working that I don't want to go back! Of course that is not really an option so I'll just have to see how it goes.

Button chaos:


And around the corner it keeps going....


 Close ups of metal buttons:




And a few of the many shell buttons:


And we got snow on Friday:

We still have most of it but rain is on the way so most of it won't be around much longer.

I also feel like a cold is coming on. Lots of sneezing! Will has it too.
Clariton didn't help much but Ibuprofin might be helping me not feel too bad.
I hope I either feel too bad to go to work or all better. I don't want to go in all sneezing etc. but don't want to stay home unless I'm feeling sick.

So all in all, I'm very glad to have had the 5 weeks off, but am hoping I get more time for LOA in the not too distant future.
I learned that not working doesn't open up infinite amounts of time and that it is so easy to waste time.
Maybe at a time of year when it gets light earlier it will be easier to get going earlier in the day.

More posts as I have time...
