So I'm holed up in my office today, trying as I have been all week to dig myself out of the pit of backlogged work to do, when suddenly I hear what sounds like somebody pounding on a door. I look out a second-floor window and don't see any cars in our driveway so I decide to ignore it. But it happens again. And again. My first thought is "How in the heck did Jeff lock himself out of the house??!!" But when I go downstairs there's nobody at the front door. Or the back door. Or the garage door. And Jeff's car isn't here. So I decide to walk out the front door to make sure I'm not missing anything and manage to scare two of our turkeys out of our front flowerbed. Then I realize, it's happened again. Our silly turkeys have come back to see that 'other' turkey they saw in the mirror a few weeks ago. The mirror is no longer there, but I think they can see their reflection in our windows. I wonder if they come to check themselves out or if they are coming to make sure that 'other' turkey isn't barging in on their turf. Mystery solved. I kid you not, they came back three more times this afternoon, and Jeff finally got to hear how loud it is when they peck our windows. Someday our alarm system is going to think somebody is breaking in and call the police. Won't they feel silly when two turkeys run off, gobbling hysterically all the way?? I know I did!!
Life seems to be settling down. I'm feeling better every day, have been off the narcotic cough meds for over a week, and I'm sleeping better at night. Hopefully I'll be able to start working out again, because I really think it's a key part of me sleeping all night. It's also one of my de-stressing mechanisms, so I've missed it. I finally have my scrapbooking area set up and hope to actually use it soon, too (another de-stresser). I'm at least going to crops again, so that's a start. Looking forward to an all-Ada-girls-cropfest-in-a-suite-weekend!!!!
Don't have much else to report. As I said, I've hit the office hard for the last four days and have really made some progress. Still have more to go, but at least I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Take care, all of you!!
