Perpetual Ruminations

Monday

Not much time again, Tod Gammit. Well it's my own fault, i spent much of my day working instead of enjoying the afternoon. Now, it's about time to get ready and go in to work the actual part of my job. It's been a long weekend; by tonight when I get done with this holiday weekend, I will have worked close to 27 hours in three days; I still have one more before I get a day off.

Even so, it hasn't been a bad weekend. I should see it that way, since I had to work all weekend and put in some long days, but I don't. It was busy, people were cranky and in a hurry, and I didn't get anytime to do anything outside of work, except a couple hours visiting my sister from Minnesota. Even so, I had a pretty good weekend and I'm feeling pretty good.

I also had a wonderful surprise yesterday when I logged in here. I found a beautiful yellow suitcase in my left hand corner, a notice that I had been promoted to Preferred Author, and many kind comments and some nice emails. There were even more today!

What a great weekend to get promoted! Memorial Day weekend. It will be memorable to me, even more than before. As a former soldier and having family who served before me, I always enjoy this day. As an American and having the freedoms we have, thanks to those who have served, I really appreciate this day, and now it just got even better.

WDC could not have picked a more wonderful weekend to give this promotion, and I will have to take some time to tell them. Unfortunately, I probably won't get to it today, since I have to get ready for work and have not even had lunch yet. I'll try and tell them tonight in a nice letter. If not tonight tomorrow.

Now, it's time to run~

Back home again, and for a short night at work, just under four hours, what a night it was. It seems I get problems solved with one person at work, and two more start acting up. For one of them, it may very well have cost her a job. If she manages to slink her way out of getting fired, it will still cost her some hours, and a some corrective action. No matter how it turns out, by this fall, she will more than likely see that it's in her own best interest to pursue work with a different company.

Other than employee problem children, it was a pretty nice night. Now, I'm going to spend some time with my wife and do a Bible study, and then I'm hoping to log back in here and send a few emails.
