Work Takes Up So Much Time

Yesterday was Sherri's day to leave for Ennis Texas. She will be gone until Thursday and I will be on my own until then. She was up around 4:30 and I could hear her getting ready...I laid in bed until about 5:30 and when I got up she was gone. She said she told me by but I must have been laying on my good ear and I never heard her leave. She left her computer, did not drink her coffee and had no breakfast! GEE I hope she can make it having to do this all the time.

I, myself got my shower got dressed and had my coffee which is the only thing that gets me going in the morning. Without my coffee I will only run at half speed all day....why is that...a mental thing you think?

The trip in was the usual....you know all the NASCAR drivers out there racing to get in first place. What is it with some people...they run right up on you and the first chance they come around and pull back in front and then slow down??? Gosh they are only ahead of me now and then if someone else pulls in front of them they do it again. I tell Sherri it is from watching too much NASCAR.

Anyway I made it to the parking lot without any yellow flags...I did not win the race but I did finish. I have been putting my sun shade up in the windshield everyday now for ever and was just thinking surely it will start cooling off here soon. I still read the journals of so many of my Dreamer friends that tell me how cool it is where they are and I long for the time I can stay in a comfortable climate year round. It has to do wonders for your health.

Well this is the last week of this physical year and I am hard at work closing out all the data for re-works and re-runs in the press room. There is so much to do and nothing stops around me to let me get this done. Everyone still needs me to look at stuff and get stuff done on top of me having to do this and it takes for ever to get it done. I just hate stopping and starting...don't you? I get going and then have to stop and do something else then go back and set there like a toad waiting on a fly...what was I doing?? Where did I leave off??? Over and over again. I just say to myself 6 more months 6 more months...

Don't look for me to report on any projects getting completed this week either. I will be getting home rather late each night and I have to fix my supper...etc etc. Then if I am lucky and I have time I might get to read a journal and maybe spend 30 minutes in chat. Just this week though and then next week things will slow down some.

Well I better close out here and wish you a good day. Stay safe out there so I can meet up with you Somewhere in Time.

I know a remedy for the stop and start. Go in AFTER everyone else leaves and you'll get what you need done in no time. IF you can live on 2-3 hrs sleep for that day. Good luck, been there, done that.
