This week...
Oct. 21st, 2009 05:01 pmI recovering from the ick. I'm productively coughing, but my sleep and eating (#26, 97) are off. I suspect it was partly for covering the Medical shift at Burn Out Saturday night, and then another gig Sunday night. Two late nights where I don't get to bed until after 4am, and contact with people who would rather party than take care of themselves would partially explain it. I've gotten a massage from the BF, and I'm working it out with my tantric practices (#13) and Dayquil.
I did have a wonderful weekend, though, with a Burner friend who came for a short visit. She was more helpful and competent doing what I do than I would have expected, had no drama, and went geocaching with me (#106). I dropped off my Travel Bug, and she discovered her first. Since then, I've made lone ninja-like forays in parking lots and parks at 3am (when I couldn't sleep) without a GPS unit, relying on hints and Google maps, with some success.
Work has been the place of multiple challenges this week. I apparently was a victim of identity theft from a client, and found out when my Post Office Box rent was overdue and was closed, because they didn't receive my check. The bank/check issues and PO Box have been resolved, and I'm now back to receiving mail. Professional ugliness continues, but more passive-aggressively, and I continue to handle it with grace and decorum.
Ol' Number 3 has gotten a second washing on the outside, and is a great deal cleaner. She's also had her pantry re-organized for better inventory, and had track lighting installed in the kitchen, and I've fixed her old track lighting that had gotten loose and wouldn't work. I'm planning to install a travel cooler and reorganize my kitchen area this week (#17). A three-prong hook we installed this last weekend is proving to be extremely handy. I've found a place that services Alison Transmissions - however, my brakes are grinding on my truck, a much higher priority.
Training continues (#35), and we were issued new uniforms as a class. I'm looking at a new calling plan and a new phone, as well as health insurance (#49). I'm waiting to hear back about office furniture and my new office, and then planning on reorganizing and purging my office stuff, as well.
