Monday Happenings

Well, today was not a usual day for us. Our office manager (read as she does everything office related) is gone for the week, so I was called on to type a letter at the office. Now, I am perfectly capable of typing a business letter and have done so many times before, but never on that computer in the program she has there. Do you have any idea how frustrating it is when the computer seems to have a mind of its own!? I only needed to get one indentation out to move a sentence over and no matter what I did that program would not let it happen! I finally ended up totally retyping the letter in the word processing program I was used to. (Which I would have done to begin with, but hubby had already started it.) And how many more typing mistakes do you make when your husband is sitting beside you saying he needs to get this faxed and get out to the job site! If I go back to work next fall, it definately will not be as a secretary!

The worst part of the day was when September and I arrived at the office. She jumped out of the Suburban ahead of me, and as I got out I heard her calmly say "ouch". As I turned to look why, she began screaming. Yes, her finger was shut in the car door! We thank God that it was not in the hinge, and only got pinched between the door and frame. No permanent damage, but it did pinch it good and tear up some skin. She will certainly be sore for a few days.

The best part of the day was a phone call from Miranda, she got an A on her ethics paper, and was able to get all the classes she wanted except one. And she is pretty sure she will get into that, she just has to go get permission from the professor. It is so hard to believe she will be finished with her first year of college in less than 3 weeks!
