One of those Mondays

Well, it has been a very busy day today. First off, I stopped in at Tim Horton's to get my one coffee of the day, the way I like it. See, today starts the day I put out there to cut out all coffee with creamer, except one. Like a one a day. One coffee with cream...after that, if I am having coffee it is straight. I am not much for straight, so on my way into the office, after delivering a light box at a school for an order, I decided to go without. I need to eliminate caffeine from my diet, and this is my way of starting. Used to be I could down 3 maybe 4 coffees with creamer, in a day. Today...one coffee...maybe that's why it's been one of those Mondays.

Got my work computer pretty much up to task. The power cord they neglected to ship with the replacement laptop arrived this morning. So, I went about changing out my laptop and hooking up the work laptop. Lots of missing stuff. So, a couple of calls to the Solution Center....what a name for those desktop support people...lol..anyways now I have all my programs available that I need today..there may be some missing items, but I guess I will get to discover them as I work.

Speaking of work..hard to get motivated to do, today. I have to get this finished tonight as my billing cycle needs to run first thing in the morning. I have been waiting like 45 minutes for a process to complete. The way it is looking, it might never complete. I may well be doing the 33 change orders, one by one, instead of doing the copy mode. I am giving it a 15 more minutes and then I will kill the process and manually do the 32 that are left. Then, I still have work to complete. So, it's gonna be a long night tonight. The more I blog, the longer it will be.

Procrastination, my best friend...today. I need use my 15 minutes to get this work done. Well, I guess by saying I am waiting 15 more minutes, gives me 15 minutes here to blog.

Then, off I will go.

Yesterday was a profitable day. I went process serving...and I did NOT want to. I kept trying to talk myself into quitting for the day, after each stop. Then, I would get a hit and think...ok...a few more and look at the $$ you are earning...pay off those bills. So, I continued on. I finished about 4:00pm. Came into the office, thinking I was going to work on my billing cycle, only I didn't.

Instead, I drove over to a EM's place to look at the notices she is getting for money owed back to the State of MI, for her 2006 tax return. Man, she needed to call before this week...the stuff she has is dated last October. She had 60 days to dispute it. Now...it's been more than 60 days...And, she expects me to get it fixed, because I did her taxes...for free...because she is of the financially burdened...and I used to do...did I say used to??? maybe I will be giving it up...do tax returns for those who could not afford to pay to have them done, from the church I used to go to...It's probably not a big deal...but the bill she has been getting for the last few months is...now over $500...because she did not respond to the October letter. Anyways, at least I went there to get the stuff to see what I could figure out...now I have a self imposed deadline of Wednesday to complete it. Top priority for tomorrow.

Just looked at the clock..got about 8 minutes of my 15 left.

After I left her place, I went home and crawled in bed. It was 7:15pm. I was exhausted. First, the screwy hours I kept the last few days...and the fact that 3 or 4 nights of 4 or 5 hours, equals needing to catch up. I slept until 7:45am. I was up at least 4 times to pee...when you drink water, you pee...lots...

Speaking of water, I am at 19 cups right now. I intend on getting a few more in before the night is over. I am really liking the hot tea flavored water I have been drinking. Today, I have 12 cups alone with that. It's very soothing and filling...and keeps you moving...to the bathroom...lol..

Time to say, goodnight, here. Back to work.
