The beatings will continue until morale improves....

This morning everyone came dragging back in to work looking all shell-shocked, and were very vocal about their desire to still be on vacation, or sleeping in, or anywhere but at work. I'm a realist...you do what you have to do, and whining about it won't help any. As things turned out it was a pretty good day. I'm finally getting the hang of the archaic computer system we have to work with, and in fact a couple of the newer people (newer than me, that is) are coming to me for computer advice. Hahaha!

Everyone who knows me knows how anything much more complicated than Word or Google or Blogspot causes me to start twitching and spasing out. Now I only tremble a little, with a minimal amount of mouth foam....a definite improvement.

My bro (business partner) and I (mainly bro) will be making a presentation this week to a prospective homebuyer about building a new custom home for them. I would love to get this job as the additional income would certainly be welcome. It's something I could do on the side, while bro does the lion's share of the work since he doesn't have another job like I do. Wish us luck!

That's all for now, friends. Dinner, and the Orange Bowl, await me this evening. Chao....

  1. No one likes to go back to work after the holidays. Glad your day went well. If you ever need any computer help, let me know. I use this cool computer guy who can fix anything and everything and knows alot of the programs very well. (My husband!)
    Today was my paid day off for the holiday. It makes it easier to go back tomorrow, which is Tuesday. Hope you have a fabulous week!

  3. I'm still in limbo being on the verge of real vacation. I'm at work but I seriously don't want to start anything that might care over after I leave. Keeping my head down and hoping nothing major breaks.

    Thanks for stopping by my place and I will be adding you to my blogroll.
