And the hits just keep on coming!
Just when you think things are smoothing out...you know how it works....
Monday I knew I had a report to write for our Judicial Performance Commission, but I fiddled the day away doing other stuff. When I finally sat down at the last minute to do it, I COULD NOT FIND MY NOTES ANYWHERE!!!! These were notes from the interviews of judges, somewhat important to what I was supposed to be writing.
So Tuesday I finally gave up and wrote the report using the other info I had, plus whatever I could dredge up from memory, sandwiching it all in between book-packing and other things I HAD to do. It came out okay and I went to bed feeling reasonably satisfied with the day, and expecting today to run more smoothly.
But about 5 minutes after I got up this morning, the electricity went out. It was a big outage, hitting about half the county, from what I hear, and it didn't come back on again until 3:30!
With no high-tech stuff to distract us, Mike and I did get things done, like washing the dog to separate her from the newest dose of her favorite fur conditioner (horse manure), and making a run to town (where they DID have power) for my monthly pills and our weekly library trip. At the library, they told me they heard the power problem was fixed, but we got home and found they were WRONG!!!
So I have been feeling very put-upon, although trying to be cheerful about other things, such as the free water that fell from the sky last night. Yet it seems I have much more important things to be thankful about, which I will address shortly. Right now the Boy informs me I ought to be spending some quality time with him and his Sims.
