Yes, I'm still here...

...this week has gotten away from me!

The quick hits:

1. I spent a happy weekend working on the mermaid and doing some spinning.
2. Processing our vacation photos is taking forever, but I finally finished day 1! Only 5 more to go. LOL! It's a good thing that I didn't take any photos on our first and last day!
3. Work is keeping me busy and I wind into open enrollment time. 
4. The cats are still letting us know that they are happy we're home. 
5. I'm so ready for the time change! I keep waking up way too early and falling asleep at odd times in the evening. I hope that things will even out when it changes.

Here's a look at one of the Grand Canyon photos. There are more in my Flickr album.

Just to catch things up, here's the latest WIPs list.
