Good Morning FTE!!!

Longer day than I expected yesterday. 3 1/2 hour church meeting to meet and affirm the appointment of a new pastor. Long, but very good meeting.

Lot to do today. Stuff happening that i need to get done before I have a 3 day weekend (very much looking forward to that).

T -2 days Dave!! Are you ready?

We are observing President's Day tomorrow. We have it off by contract, but the University has the discretion of choosing when they observe it. Students had classes on Pres. Day, so they probably just moved it to tomorrow because it's Spring Break. Oh well .saves me vac. time and money. The older two munchkins have no school tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have a productive weekend on the house.

Morning Jay!! Yes. that took a while. I'm ok with long meetings as long as they are productive. I can take it. The rest of the committee, not so much. They don't like when I run meetings that long. Something about being tired and their brains not functioning anymore.

Gotcha! Works out well if the kids are off so you can watch them I guess but sometimes might be able to get more done if they weren't around. Catch 22 there.

Noah will still be at daycare, so productivity shouldn't be too bad.

I hope so too but he didn't sound too hopeful initially anyway. I told him if he needed anything to just call...YOU!
