What's happening in my world today
Jan. 19th, 2005 02:05 pmI spent the morning trying to concentrate on work, with the glorious smells of a turkey dinner and fresh banana muffins coming from one side (where they are cooking for the conference folks in the office kitchen just down the hall), and the sound of new candidates being grilled/interviewed by the leaders of the mission at the other end of the hall. I had to close my door finally to both -- but it hasn't helped with the concentrating yet. I can still smell those muffins. ;-)
It is snowing and it looks lovely! Though I suppose it won't be great for driving in later. All you PA friends of mine, drive carefully this evening!
I had the great honor of helping the computer guy with a computer problem today, hehe! It's a program that I am in charge of and I know its quirks; he is trying to use it, and calls me in when it won't behave.
I am being helpful to many today, in various ways, and while I may not be getting my own project done, it doesn't bother me too much. Things come up, you deal with them, and your work gets done in the end. Me taking time to help with other things that aren't necessarily "my job" makes everyone feel a little calmer around here -- and boy, do we need calm with all this conference hullabaloo going on. ;-)
My main task today is trying to keep thoughts of writing Boromir away long enough to come up with some kind of chart for keeping track of who stays at our guest house and eats what meals, for reimbursement. I know the info I need to include, but putting it in a form that can be charted and used is defeating me right now.
Did I mention that it's snowing?
