 I
finally resolved a problem that I've been having at work with one of my
vendors. You have no idea how this has been affecting me. I
received emails all weekend long about it. But the problem is solved
today! I WAS SO HAPPY TO GET THIS NEWS! NOW I CAN STOP WORRYING
ABOUT IT!
#1Boss is on vacation this week and I have been staying a little late every night in an attempt to get my quarterly reports done. I should have had them done by the end of July. This is the latest that I have ever been with them. Brokers are starting to call me looking for the reports. I really must finish them this week! I hope to take myself up to the cabin this weekend for some quiet time. I really need to get away and get some thinking done. I'll bring my spinning wheel as I need to get spinning done too. I finished spinning the last of the wool/silk blend last night. I just have to wash the skeins to set the twist and hope they dry in this humid weather. I didn't go spinning over Jesse's house tonight. I got home from work a little late and by the time I found something to eat, it was after 6:30. So instead I spent about and hour carding more of the gray Romney out on the deck because it was slightly cooler out there. I set Eloise loose to hop around while I was carding. She has been confined since her surgery and this morning she was very spunky in her palace. She keeps trying to get out of the nesting box. I've had to duct tape the top down as she goes in there and bangs on it with her head. She's a feisty little bunny. Time to go up and iron my clothes for work tomorrow. Oh, yippee! Ooooohh...wool..
