The Great Freeze-Out Of 2011

So, holy crap, life change. I'm working on transitioning successfully to working out of my house, thanks to New Job. I've got a few things down, thanks to other friends who have been in similar positions: have a set schedule, wake up and treat it like you're Going To Work, actually remember to eat, and remember to

sign the hell off when you're done for the day, and don't work all evening.

My treat for myself, now that Jeff is home and I am home all the time: I had a freezer delivered today. It's humming away happily in the garage, bored as hell and hoping I'll feed it.

I've got some thoughts about things I've always wished I could keep more of, but never did because Tiny Fridge Freezer Is Full Of Fail:

a life lived safely

By most people’s standards, I don’t think you’d call today a day of rest. There’s nothing quite like realizing for the seven-millionth time that making dinner for fewer than eight people really isn’t that big of a deal, but, really, it isn’t. Dinner for five (like tonight) - a cakewalk. I could practically do it in my sleep at this point.
