Quick hello

We survived the hurricane! More posts on that soon, including how exactly we survived and things you can do with limited light. Bonus: I had three days off from work!!!!!!

Also coming up soon: more installments of the laid off spouse series. I have a few things that I'd like to get off my chest.

Lastly, I leave you with this random thought. When you leave outgoing mail in your mailbox, you put up the flag to alert the mailman. Yet, when you get new email, you are often notified (depending on the program) via a flag. Shouldn't that be the way for incoming snail mail? That way, you'd know if you needed to check your mailbox. I love mail--checking my mailbox is often the highlight of my day!
