On Vox: Audit Time
It's that time of year that everyone expects me to be stressed out. Co-workers are bringing me food and taking me out to lunch. They are giving me a wide berth to focus on what I need to get done. The funny thing is.....
it's the week before the audit that I am beyond stressed out as I try to get all the materials, reports, and questionnaires ( Read more... ) -
On Vox: Closure
I've been drafting this post in my head for a while now, but I'm still not sure that it's going to make sense.....
What exactly is Closure? What do people really want/need when they say that they need Closure on a specific situation?
I've probably thought at some point in my life that I needed Closure after a relationship--I really can't remember ( Read more... ) -
On Vox: Just Another Monday
Surprisingly, it hasn't been a bad Monday at all. In spite of the fact I had to get up early and still wound up late for work and in spite of the fact that our audit started today--it was actually a pretty good day. The auditors didn't really ask for much from me--I'm sure it will be a different story tomorrow--so I was able to work on some ( Read more... ) -
On Vox: Another Year Marked
Today is my birthday and to celebrate we joined my mom and her husband at their cabin in northern Wisconsin. We went up yesterday and stayed overnight.

Never mind that my computer crashed this morning after I synced up my Nano. Never mind that I lost my wedding ring (it's somewhere in the house). Never mind that it's that time of the ( Read more... ) -

TGIF
It was a pretty good day today. I didn't get as much work done as I would have liked, so I may be doing a bit over the weekend in order to be ready for my Monday meetings. Yay ( Read more... ) -
Quiet Night
I saw a pretty bad accident on the way home. People were injured, but there weren't any ambulances when I drove past. I counted at least 3 cars involved, but 16 cars were off on the side of the road ( Read more... ) -
On Vox: The More Things Change....
Justin is down. I should be sweeping the kitchen floor and reading a chapter from another work-related book. And yet, here I am blogging and hanging out on Facebook.
My father stopped by tonight to do his taxes. We filed online and it didn't take too long. DH took Justin grocery shopping while I did that, so everything that had to get done ( Read more... )
