I survived
In my post on November 19th, I mentioned my days of long hours were over. Talk about being way off base. My days were truly just beginning. I have worked 12-14 hours a day, 7 days a week since that time, other than right at Thanksgiving and last weekend.
I was able to visit some old friends last weekend, who graciously loaned me their computer to run and download reports I needed so as not to lose the data. Thankfully, it did not take much time away from our visit. Ray and Charlotte truly have the gift of hospitality. I came away mentally refreshed. Just wished I would have slept more than a few hours although, I must say, getting up way before anyone else and just reading in the quiet of morning was a treat. A muchly needed treat.
Today, I am working from home and will only go into the office if need be. Thankfully, the office is only 7 miles away. I copied all our of files so I pretty much can work from home, unless older information is needed. Just have to remember to check the voicemail periodically. This is normally how I work the last 2 weeks of the year but this year, it just was not possible.
Last night, sheer exhaustion took over my body as I went to bed a little after 8pm and did not arise until 5:15am. Feel much better.
Waylon and I are going to do a little stocking stuffer shopping this morning and then attempt to decorate the tree and the house. We are hoping to have Devon at least one day during Christmas.
Guess I better get about my day!
Should I not get on here again anytime soon, Merry Christmas! May you and your family have an awe filled day celebrating the birth of Jesus!
