COMMON cold has hit me hard, and I'm just glad it waited to arrive until my last day of the trip. Been a long time since I've felt this lousy.

Am going to be painting a kitchen in a few days(I'm up for anything workwise!) then also helping finish up the apartment of a friend where I'll be moving in a week or so. It will be nice to have my own space again, as well as internet all the time in my own place.

Nothing has turned up yet on my job search, but I feel confident something will pop in the next couple of weeks. Am headed to Helena in a couple of weeks to do an ethics class on behalf of my professional society (CPCU) so that will be fun to get "back in the saddle."
