I am tired of being ill!!! Went to the doctor last week (Wednesday) because I thought I had streph throat. Well, it wasn't that, thank goodness, but they found a viral infection. I got a work release for today. Sooooo, after 5 days at home it was good to get out if only to go to work. Can't say I feel the greatest but it's better than it was. Not sure my spelling is correct either but hope you get my meaning. I still have a very sore throat and chest pains. I'm tired all the time, and a bit of a crank. Just ask the girls at work!!! I went ahead and apologized to 3 people this morning before I even said anything. Thought I'd get it out of the way before I did any damage!!
Unfortunately I didn't get to my aunt's 85th birthday celebration. I'm sorry Lorraine that I didn't get there. Didn't feel very good and even though (according to the doctor) I'm not contagious I felt like it. Guess this is just something I have to work out and hopefully it won't last for a real long time. I would really have liked to see Aunt Lorraine's and new place. Maybe I can get there one of these other weekends.
Work is extremely hectic right now. Our fiscal year ends tomorrow. We've lost 4 staff people in the last week and I have a board packet to get out yet this week. My State reports aren't due for another 30-days but I have to start on them. With the ARRA (stimulus) funds that we received it makes the statistics a lot of fun. My regular stats have to be separate from the ARRA stats. We have yet to receive the program to track ARRA. Wonder where that went? We're in the process of putting new computer systems in for 10 of us. They ran into a glitch last week and haven't worked it out yet. Fuel program begins Thursday and it will be a madhouse for the next few months with that program along with the everyday things that happen at a CAP agency. I feel like I'm chasing myself . . . interviews begin Thursday (I think) for a couple of the positions open. I don't mind interviewing but it always takes more time than an individual thinks it should. Lots of paperwork. But then, where would we be without it????
I can't say I'm real fond of this 'fall' weather. Isn't it a little early for all this wind and cold?? Frost warnings out for low lying areas tonight. It was 39 this morning in Dubuque. Guess I'll have to drag out some fall/winter things to wear. I wore a sweatshirt today. I've still got some problems with chills so I was fairly comfortable all day today. It's an agency shirt so I can get by with that!
Have to pick up a couple of prescriptions tomorrow night. Last day of the year to do that so that I can use my flex spending account. I also want to do a little shopping for my great nephew for his birthday present. Big party this weekend. At the present he's sick. Poor little guy. Hope he's better or there may not be a party.
Finished the creek party scrapbook. I sure had a good time working on that one. Jim & Mandy also gave me a DVD with scads of pictures of Charlotte. I'm in the process of going through them and making a decision on which ones to use. Have to either get a big memory stick or some additional memory for the computer. I'm slowly running out of room. I know that photos take a lot of space and right now I've got lots and lots of them on my drive. Maybe Jim can help me with that the next time he comes home. His mother would really appreciate that!!
Got the garbage out tonight. Need to do a few dishes yet and have supper. I best get at it. Hope all have a good week.
