Getting Prepared

Last night I packed 1/2 of my stuff – mainly the clothes I could think of that I wanted to take. Tonight I’ll get the kids’ stuff ready and pack up toiletries that I won’t be using in the morning. I also did some quick cleaning this morning which Denis will finish today before my family arrives at the house.

We had our new garage door opener installed yesterday and SHE IS LOVELY. Wow – what a difference. It’s so quiet and smooth and it has a lockable keypad!! How cool is that!?

Here at work I’m trying to get my desk as cleared off as possible so that the floater sitting here next week doesn’t have any issues. I’ve done a LOT of filing and going through the stuff on my ledge. It’s actually in pretty good shape right now, although I have a few more things to do. But so far, so good. My cube is looking managable, which is the most important thing. Mr. BIL’s office, on the other hand, is miserable, but that’s not MY fault. I’m going to leave a note for the floater telling her all the possible places she can find files in MY area, and have already told Mr. BIL’s main paralegal where I’m putting everything.

The office is dead today, so with any luck I’ll get out a bit early. Mr. BIL has a meeting that goes until 3 p.m. – hopefully we’ll be able to get out of here around 4 p.m. I don’t know though – he has four things he wants to get done today, and none of them have gotten done yet and he has just left for lunch.

My lunch hour will be spent running over to a shoe store to pick up a new pair of walking shoes. My most comfortable pair of shoes recently had the sole split in half, so they are no longer my most comfortable shoes. So hopefully I can find a cheap, comfortable pair at PayLess.

That’s about it, really. Last night I tried to clear off as much as I could from my Tivo so that I have plenty of space for the shoes shows (heh – thanks lynellen!) that will get recorded while I’m gone. I think I have a bit more to go through though – I am taping several things that are two hours long so I know I need more space than usual. I also might set up the other two Tivos to record some of those things.
