Coming Up For Air

Wow – what a busy day. You are lucky you got that Barilla Pasta post out of me earlier. I have been on the go since this morning and am ready to go home.

What bites is that Monday is NOT a holiday for me – it’s a regular workday for our firm. AND on top of that, Mr. BIL asked if I’d come in for a few hours on Sunday to help him get ready for the big mediation he’s doing on Monday. Of course I said yes, since I would like the OT for our Disney fund. But still…

In the past my busy-ness has not been reflected in my work area, but today I got quite a lot off my desk – and I mean that quite literally. I was starting to lose elbow room around my typewriter and was feeling a bit claustrophobic, so I’m happy those files are gone for good, with tasks erased on the whiteboard in Mr. BIL’s office.

In other news? Our IT guy sucks. A paralegal asked him just after 12 p.m. to load software on my computer. I called and reminded him at 3 p.m. He never did it and left at 5 p.m. It’s a software I’ll need on Sunday, so I don’t know what I’ll do now. Hope Mr. BIL doesn’t have to change that file, I suppose.

I’ll be working a bit late tonight and then heading straight to music practice. Fortunately that is in Fort Mill, so I should be home at a reasonable time (I hope so, considering I won’t have time to stop by home for some dinner beforehand and I don’t get to eat after 9:45 p.m.).
