If I thought February would be any less hectic than January, I was a fool.
This month, my boss has given 50% of my time to a project that takes place in another location in Seattle (and I AM counting commute times as part of my work day, damnit). I know absolutely nothing about this project, so I'm a little concerned about being lost and overwhelmed. The fact that my "to do" whiteboard list has 24 items on it already (of varying length/effort) is a bit intimidating. This also means that my telecommuting privileges on Fridays are indefinitely suspended, and my work hours may lengthen considerably in order to accomodate both bosses.
This month, I must find a renter for the condo. I am conducting an Open House on Saturday to that end, and hopefully fruit will come of it. In the meantime, I am reposting the ad everywhere, including on paper form in my work building, the local grocery stores, and the local coffee shops. Desperate? Definitely.
This month, I am starting my first business class, for Temptress. I have never taken a business class before, so I'm curious.
This month I am pursuing another avenue of money making which may or may not pan out, depending largely on myself. I'll know more on Monday 2/8.
This month, I am supposed to have a work holiday on 2/15, but due to a server move I will in fact be working that Sat, Sun, and Mon. No perks. Just drudgery. I have my fingers crossed that someone brings in donuts and coffee to share. Maybe that should be me. Hrmm...
This month, I am tasked with sewing two calzone, or Italian 1500s breeches/bloomers, and embroidering them for a competition in early March. The construction should not be too hard. I hope. But I have never embroidered anything in my life (aside from a really bad attempt at a rosebud for Adam's favor, which failed). I have materials to gather for all of this, as well as actual sewing to do. Good thing my weekends are somewhat open...aside from this one.
This month, as usual, I have D&D every Thursday and my CSA pickup every other Wednesday.
I hope to be able to end this damned Geico claim this month, which would be a huge load off my shoulders. Getting a roommate would be another huge weight off me. I've also been in a bit of a lonely/pining funk lately, which I need to get over before V-day. My lack of single female friends geographically close to me means less comiserating on that blasted Hallmark holiday.
Luckily, I also have SU to tide me through this month, and a multitude of upcoming SCA events in April and beyond. If I can survive until then. :)
