A bit of random:

1. The open house last weekend was very successful. I posted about it at my business blog. I also have a couple of new custom orders. I’ll be busy for the next couple of weeks on my growing list of custom pieces. And I made a tidy sum to add to the Disney fund - the total receipts were more than I had prayed about (I prayed about a ballpark figure, nothing specific), which is awesome.

2. Beau got another internal email sent to the PHC faculty about the acceptance to their offer for the Government position. So now we just wait to hear about the Poli-Theory slot. And we continue to pray hard for God’s will - it would be nice if God’s will fits our desires, of course, but if not then we’ll deal with the disappointment.

3. I’d love to petition my congressmen about abolishing this crazy Daylight Savings Time idea. However, I know it won’t go anywhere since Congress just lengthened DST last year. Neither my dog nor my kid are clock watchers so they are not on board with the time change yet. As far as the dog is concerned it’s actually a good thing since it moves the early morning barking to later. But it makes Jesse’s bedtime challenging since I want to put him down at the usual time, but his body clock thinks it’s too early.

4. I’ve got a hankering for Indian/Indonesian food, so I’m on the hunt for some good recipes. Related, we got Thai take out a couple of weeks ago and the lemongrass-peppercorn pork was delicious. I’m looking for a recipe for that, too. Also, with St. Patricks Day next week, we’re doing the corned beef and cabbage thing with my parents on Sunday. I can’t wait!

5. Survivor Pool - Somehow I’m still in the game. And mirroring the show, our game has also switched up the tribes, so I now have tribemates who are completely unaware of my plea to be voted out. Of course, there’s the chance that one of the people who stayed on my tribe spilled the beans, but I think I’m safe for a bit because I’m the highest point person now. My ally is on the other tribe now, so I have someone after the merge, if we make it that far. And I’m working on a new alliance with a couple of people who came to my tribe in the switch.

I think that’s about it for now.

1. Re # 3. This was Representative Ed Markey’s idea. (Dem.-Mass). Complain to him.
