Stuff and Stuff

Well, so much for that. I'm so glad that the storm only lasted a couple of days, and that it warmed up fast and melted it all away in most of the city. Jeez, I said it in the last post, we ALWAYS get ice. It drives me crazy.

I took a day of vacation yesterday - my personal test to see if it's OK to go to work is if I can get off of my porch. I went out yesterday morning and it was iced in and the steps were impassable. So, day at home. Watched "Murder She Wrote" for two hours in the afternoon. Cool.

Today, I get here and remember I have a two hour boring meeting on EEO stuff. They keep mixing EEO items up with affirmative action and diversity items and it drives me nuts because they have separate committees for them...why can't they keep it all straight? grrr....two hours. The actual EEO portion was over in less than an hour.

This weekend I finally got all the packages sent off to CA. Turns out that nephew Andy is engaged, which I didn't find out until the package was sent, but luckily I had included something for her......I met her in San Diego this summer and liked her very much. They seem to suit each other well, so I wasn't surprised to hear about the engagement. But it's pretty exciting.

I also got all the other presents wrapped (rolled up in tissue paper and stuffed in a bag - I only actually "wrapped" three) and it feels good to have them all done. I am now only waiting for the rest of mom's present to get here and I'll be done, done, done. It's supposed to arrive on Thursday.
