7 things
1.) Adoption caseworker is coming for the first homestudy visit a week from tomorrow. At our dumpy apartment. It seriously needs cleaned. And unwanted furniture moved out of it. And the carpet cleaners to come by. Like, wow.
2.) First choice location for wedding ceremony has fallen through. We now have two possible site options on the table. We might actually be setting the date for real, later this week.
3.) Work continues to be extraordinarily busy, and moderately tense. I can never get everything I need to do finished. Also, I don't think that the company they contract to for computer and IT stuff actually offers the specific type of services they THINK are offered. At work they say I can call the IT people for questions about fixing/changing aspects of the big ugly bugbear Access database, but they really don't know how to answer my questions ("I don't really know Access very well," both reps have said). So far, I've ended up figuring out most of the things on my own, by experimentation. But that's a huge time-waster, and with the great multitude of tasks assigned to me, I really need to be as efficient as possible. I mean, I'm really busting my ass every day, non-stop, and still cannot completely finish it all, before another thing starts up.
4.) Went to the Quaker gathering thing with Scot. It didn't go terribly well. We felt very strange the whole time. I felt badly for bringing him. The bed and breakfast was possibly the best part of the trip. It definitely was for Scot. Also we were supposed to see Matt there, but didn't see him.
5.) I have videos I want to post on youtube or photobucket or something, but I can't get them to upload. They are .mov format, and they seem to be the right size of file, so they should upload, right?! But they won't. Irritating.
6.) I only babysit Danielle on weekends. When she's not here, I actually miss her. It's totally cool to have a little person totally hanging on my every word with limitless adoration and following me around the house. She's a handful but I totally am into her. She has a tough little life-- I feel badly for her.
7.) Scot is now an uncle, for the 4th time, as of yesterday.
