A non post

Not really a post, just kinda popping in to say hello. Not much happening in my life right now. This working full time schtick doesn't leave much time for anything else.

I work in a 2 person A/P department for a government agency, and it's been a very steep learning curve for this old brain of mine. Sure, A/P is A/P, but the environment is different, the software is different, the procedures are different, the pace, the people, the terms, the paperwork...all VERY different!

I'm number 3 in a string of temps replacing someone who has been on sick leave for almost a year, so my co-worker is understandably a little stressed, but she's not nearly as stressed as I'm going to be next week. Y'see, she's going on vacation. For five weeks! Leaving me in charge of training another temp, and running the department!

She's leaving on Thursday, and I have a nervous breakdown scheduled for Friday afternoon!

By the time she returns at the end of August, I'll either be totally proficient, or institutionalized. One of those. Most likely the latter.

So if you don't hear from me for awhile, it's because I'm probably in a corner somewhere, whimpering. Or maybe drinking myself into a coma.

Our good neighbours across the alley have decided to shake up their lives a little. They've sold their house, and are moving to Nova Scotia to run a little general store in the middle of nowhere. At first I thought they were crazy, but now I'm thinking of stowing away in their trailer.
Anyway, they had a moving sale on the weekend, and among other things, I picked up these cool bottles.




And Dan got his eye on this card game set, which will be making it's way to Mexico.




That's all for now, I have to get back to studying my notes so I can produce a cheque run by myself. Gulp.
Send chocolate!

Thanks for stopping by.
