Have I talked about this yet? I’m super excited about the season premiere tonight. Supposedly there are things in tonight’s episode that are a throwback to the very first episode. I’m going to have to break out my DVDs before tonight so I can make sure and catch it. The only thing I’m guessing for tonight is that she doesn’t pick Derek or McVet. And the panties reappear. That should be funny. Can’t wait!

T-shirt slogans
I’ve come up with some t-shirts slogans that I might wear although no one might understand because they originated from conversations with people or my brain. Well, or the Staples commercial. Only because I’ve said that like 500 times lately and I really need to buy the button. Anyway.
Behind every good man…
is Amy doing the work
Great minds think alike…
so are you thinking what I’m thinking?
In IT if something seems wrong,
it probably is
I don’t like people that don’t do their jobs…
Get to work
That was easy!
work issues again
So last night one of my jobs at work blew up and I’m having to scramble to get it fixed before the next run at 5. I hate putting in new code. Always something you didn’t think of to fix and you look really dumb because you didn’t think of it to start with. ugh.
And as of last night, I had all my part-time hours in. I technically could have taken until Monday off. But no, I have to fix all this stuff. At least I get paid for any hours I work over my set hours. My next few checks should be GOOD.
it’s me!
Yay, I love my new theme. Thanks, Jaynee, for pointing me to the site. I had seen that before but didn’t look hard enough!
finally, all working
Jobs at work finally completed successfully this evening…whew! We still have some work to do but that was the stressful part. Today the BA met with the business customers and he said they were all very appreciative of me of the hard work I’ve done and they know “behind every good man is Amy doing the work!” I want that on a t-shirt!
Alrighty then, Emma
mommy, i have a care bear!
yes you do
where did i get my care bear?
from your aunt cathy
i have an aunt cathy?
yes you do. you don’t remember her from maryland?
no
actually she’s your great aunt because she’s mommy aunt
i dooo? well, thanks for telling me the truth. now i have to get back to jumping.
another blah day
So work went awful last night. I’m having to put in emergency change controls today to get required software installed and I’m not totally sure that will 100% fix it. I know it needs it, but I don’t know that it doesn’t need something else. Ugh.
Bible study was pretty good last night. There was one visitor that came with a friend. She was a little rambunctious and outspoken and she left within 5 minutes of me starting. I don’t think she was up for what we were talking about. And “the girl” with “the problem” sucked a lot of the attention last night again. At least nothing was inappropriate like last week. I’m really going to try to get her some help. I think she feels really alone in her struggles and she needs someone who completely understands her issues to talk to her. So that’s what I’m going to work on today I hope. Our YP knows of a minister in the state that deals with this, hopefully he can talk to her or has some resources for her.
Catching up
This week has been intensely insane.
Monday was our first bible study. I felt very prepared when I was there and it went very smoothly. All the girls and leaders seemed to have good reviews afterwards. There is one girl who has, uh, issues and it might be interesting to see how that plays out.
So Tuesday I had something to do but I can’t think of what I did. Wednesday was the Parents dinner for the youth so I spent the whole afternoon and evening at the church. Thursday we did grocery shopping and went to Cracker Barrel with Mom and Dad before Mom and Heather left for Colorado. And Friday. Oh lovely Friday. I worked that morning and then left for work at 3:45 to do an implementation. I didn’t get home at 11:15 that night. Then sporadically worked until 5 on Saturday. In between, I went to see E in the hospital nursery and cleaned the house. Sunday was church and I took a nap in between church. I was up again at 6 this morning working when my pager went off multiple times. We have one more job today that runs at 5 that I need to verify. Hopefully it will not interfere with bible study tonight.
I feel a little less prepared for tonight’s bible study than last week. I’ve just been so busy with work that I haven’t had much time to prepare. I barely got through Sunday School on Sunday. Scott was there so he could help fill in some gaps a little. Or at least make me feel like I wasn’t a dork trying to teach by myself.
Pretty much, I’m exhausted. And we’re not nearly done with stuff at work. Bible study is another 6 weeks and of course Sunday School is the entire church year. I was thinking about entering some stuff in a Consignment sale this weekend but I just don’t want to add anything to my list of stuff to do. I really love studying for bible study and Sunday school and working on the youth group’s web site. If that’s all I had to do (except of course raising two children) and not have to work professionally, I think I would be set. Except of course those little things called bills. Oh well, here I go complaining again about such a wonderful job I have and I don’t want to, I just am feeling a little overwhelmed right now.
