wooooooo . . .

Hear that sound of exhaling? That's me. DH left early yesterday morning. FIL left today. Gone for 3 weeks. Last night I was in the office until 7 doing last minute packing for FIL. I bought dinner on the way home, turned on The War Episode One. Watched one hour of the show and went to bed.

Today was quiet in the office. Two women were at a charity golf tournament and one salesperson was out sick. I was able to get quite a bit of work done for a change. Woohoo! More work tomorrow, but that's OK.

Thanks for the suggestions on how to handle the women in my department. By FIL made my job a lot easier yesterday by speaking with each of the women individually and explained his vision of the department and how I am the supervisor. I think it helped a lot.

This is what I saw when I took out the trash this morning.


We've lived in downtown and have parked on the street for 4 1/2 years and have never had any problems with our car. Until today. A huge dent in the hood of my car. So before I even left for the office I had called the insurance company and had filed a vandalism complaint with the police department. Tomorrow I go to the body shop for an estimate on repairs. Luckily there was no other damage to the car.

Is there anyone who participated in the Stitchery Swap and has not received their swap gift? Let me know. Many of you have expressed interest in another swap. I will be doing another after the New Year. I'd like to set it up as a themed swap. Any suggestions?

Well, I'm enjoying night home alone #2. I was actually able to leave work at 5:30 (the time I'm supposed to leave). I'm watching the rest of The War Episode One. At 8 Navy NCIS debuts, followed by The Unit and, if I'm still awake, Cane. The Red Sox are also on, but I'll probably watch the game on the internet. I'm taping The War so I'll be watching that later this week. I guess that's more info than you need to know about my TV habits, huh?
