In other news, I'm getting older. Damnit.
A client with whom I’d been working to get set up, has finally finished setting me up. I’ve got the work description, I’ve got my initial reading material, I’ve got a purchase order. Yay!! (And hopefully the delay in getting me set up won’t imperil the team’s deadlines.) This is money I didn’t figure into my budget for the year even though I’ve been working on this deal since December, so as far as I’m concerned, it’s all gravy. Well, I’ll have to pay a big chunk in taxes on it, so there goes about…oh, half of it (just to be safe)...but still, the additional income is nice. Next up: CDs, or a money market account? Which will earn me more? (The ‘rents had the suggestion of setting up a series of CDs that mature domino-fashion, month after month after month. Then each month I can either roll it over or have more liquid assets to handle emergency expenses.)
In other news, Wednesday should be interesting. First time in my life, I’m going to dye my hair. (My hair’s long enough that the grey shows fairly much, on top; and the bottom is, of course, quite a bit lighter. I want to be a teeny bit less obvious.) Hopefully, the weather will be nice enough to open the windows and let out the ammonia-oid smell.
If nothing else, this should be entertaining.
The cats are going to hate me…
