productivity

yesterday was pretty crazy...so i'm writing about it today. wednesday i worked from home, got a lot done, organized my work schedule and had a plan for first thing thursday morning. by 4:30 (quitting time) i had not yet gotten to #1 on my list. way to accomplish!

it started right after our huddle. charlie (my boss) wanted to talk to me... uh oh. and he wanted to take a walk... uh oh again! as i walked out of my office, patty (my office-mate) said, "see ya, janet," as in, "you're in trouble!" thankfully, it wasn't that at all. actually, they like me so much, they just want to keep my happy. that's what i think! when we got back, charlie said, "patty, can i talk to you?" aaah, now he wants to keep patty happy too!

my job is really fun. i get to design for a church. it also means lots of deadlines (like every sunday) and lots of people to support. this week has been especially busy. we're opening a new campus in millbrae, christmas is coming, i'm learning some new software...

but i'm really looking forward to this crazy weekend coming. i'm preparing for a baby shower for katie! yes, our katie... right around december 2, i'm going to become a grandmother! (i'm really way too young; somehow our kids kept getting older while fred and i maintained our youth.) the shower will be small--just family--but so much fun. we love our family, and it will be so pleasant to spend the morning with the female half. the menu is brunch (my favorite food) with a strata, fruit salad, egg sandwiches, coffee bread... that kind of stuff. yum!

i'm lovin this season of life. but if it slowed down a bit, that would be nice...
