Terrific Thursday

Hello and Welcome … Hope that all is well.  A good deed that I have been doing at work that benefits my team as well as another team got called out yesterday.  I was being proactive and doing the right thing, just over stepping slightly.  I wasn’t asked to stop but to take some additional action that I don’t have the access for.  I can give myself the access but unless it’s above board and approved I won’t be doing that.  For now I’ve stopped my good deed.  It’s tough sitting here with my hands tied knowing that I can do some actual work but until it is sent to my team I can’t actually start.  This is something I do primarily to benefit myself when I am on-call but I also do it when I am bored and looking for work or know that I can help out.  As per usual the story of my life … no good deed goes unpunished. 

Had my Lasagna last night and it was delicious.  I was licking the carton it came in to get up every last drop of sauce and cheese.  Supper was over way before I wanted it to be but I had some fruit to snack on. 

Watched TV and chilled with the cats before it was time to go to bed.  Cooled the house down before I retired for the night.  Got what I’ll call an average nights sleep, nothing to rave about.  I wish every night was a great nights sleep but those only come now and then.  My new pillows and my neck are fighting to get used to each other.  They are a little too firm and it’s memory foam so I don’t know that I will ever break it in but at least they are better pillows than what I had been sleeping on. 

Boss man is out this morning but will be in this afternoon.  I’ve got a late day meeting with him to touch base, it’s our monthly waste of time call.  He usually moves it up but I’m not counting on that today.  I have some tasks that I can’t do until later in the afternoon so perhaps it will all be good timing. Right now I am at a stand still, I’ve done all I can and am just waiting to see if any work rolls in.  It makes for a long day when your just waiting around for work.  However, that is usually the largest part of my job just because I am efficient and don’t mess around.  People send me stuff all the time and are complimenting me on my quick turn around time.  It’s nice to hear.  I am about getting the job done and moving on to the next task.  It’s a beneficial habit for the times I get overwhelmed with tasks and it seems like I will never dig my way out.

Here’s hoping that it’s a pleasant Thursday for all of us.  Ciao!
