Let the head-shaking ensue...

I am appalled by the state school board's decision. Not at all surprised, they've been headed this way for a while, but gee whiz, people....I'm afraid to call my mom this week. I'm gonna get an earful.

There was good news yesterday. J'nee the Annoying announced that she was quitting the end of the week, said her schoolwork was just too much for her to keep up with and work too. Yay!!!! I really don't care about why or how, just that she'll be gone after tomorrow, and I don't have to babysit her ego anymore. Now we just need to get rid of DG, and get some competant part-time staff in here (yes, we've got someone in mind, if DG leaves soon enough).

By had a rough morning yesterday. He got in and had to help Robyn entering invoices into a spreadsheet she'd set up a while back, although she'd forgotton why she'd wanted all that detail entered in the first place. Anyway, in the process, he found how how far behind she was on the sales taxes, and it's not pretty. As he said last night, this is the universe pushing him to get out fast.

Only got 2 squares finished last night.
Estrogen afghan total: 32 of 169.

Tonight's string: kilt hose.
(Yes, I'm scheduling my string now. It's the only way I'm going to get things done.)

Woot! Good news on the help.

I agree with By's assesment.

Would the person in mind happen to be currently abandoned still working in grounds?

Yup. Poor thing spends most of her time hiding these days, from the boss over there,a nd from the other (now only) horticulturist. I keep telling her to have the guys get her on a mower, 'cuz nobody will bother her there.

I really want to get a place opened up for her here, before she gives up and moves on.

I have them at work with me, too, and on Wednesdays I actually get knitting time during my lunch hour.

This 5-day-a-week job has really cut into my knitting time.

AND HOW!

When I went from working evenings to days, my knitting all but ceased. Work REALLY cuts into the hobby time....but I WILL have to make that skully shrug :)

I have such a long list of hobbies, too. And between the boyfriend and the 5-day job, now it's a long list of neglected hobbies. And next semester will likely be worse, since they want me to teach.

Yeah...
I'm finding that Work more and more cuts into the time I have for things I want to do.
Not to mention that I have gone from fish-in-a-blender mode into just waiting for the inevitable crash of the company.

Why again don't I have a winning lottery ticket? :)

Speaking of things I want to do...I started another drawing last night.

Coolness. That's something I really want to get back to this winter. I used to do botanical drawing of the stuff blooming in my advisor's greenhouse back in college, and we have such neat stuff in here...just a matter of making time.

yeah...

...and SOMEBODY is supposed to be finding me line drawings/clipart style of oak leaves, holly leaves and yew leaves...

That tattoo isn't gonna design itself, ya know ;)

Thanks for the reminder.

You said "sheepish look" to a guy who wears kilts...

Fruedian Slip showing?

Re: yeah...

[treeskin.livejournal.com]

Freud has nothing to do with my slips, thankyouverymuch.

Re: yeah...

[iarraidh.livejournal.com]

Slips, lips, whatever

What was that old saying?

"Loose lips are worth two in the bush"?

No, that's not right...or is it?
Hafta think on that :)

The peanut gallery refrains from comment, on the grounds that any comments I could make would get me in trouble.
