Things were only sort of insane before I left, but during my business trip, the insanity level has ratcheted up a few pegs. Margie’s had one of her clients/assignments turn into an All Hands On Deck, Drop Everything And Spend Even More Hours Than The More We’ve Been Having You Work Than You’ve Been Scheduled monster. I, on the other hand, have five massive projects that I’m supposed to be juggling, plus everything else in my Day Job, personnel problems, etc.
Not to complain too much. Some other folk have even more dire schedule deadlines and Big Projects coming to fruition.
Still, it’s just crazy, and unlikely to subside any time soon. All of which, today, was added to by (a) being Mr. Mom, (b) having to pick up for the cleaning people, (c) gettting a follow-up visit from the deck contractor, (d) etc.
Meanwhile, today is Katherine’s Last Day at The Village (“We want … education …” — well, no, that’s not their motto, but it should be), her pre-school/summer school hang-out. Momentous event, not being properly celebrated due to our supersaturation of Other Things Going On. I’ll have to do something special with her this afternoon when I pick her up.
Assuming I remember to do so …
