Let there be light ...
Just a very quick post as I am super tired ... we lost power for most of the day at work today and it was truly a nightmare. The power went out at about 10:30 and didn't come back until about 4 pm. We were able to at least get the phone system and some of the lights (my office is in the basemant - so without lights it's VERY dark) working with a generator which was good. Our computer system was down though so we had to hand-write all the orders and wait until the system came back up to put them in and see what was left to do. We didn't get done till close to 6 pm (usually all the orders are in by 4).
I had a new employee starting today - hope this didn't scare her off. :) She seems really sweet so hopefully it will work out. I only have 4 more days to get her trained before I go on vacation to Austria. Why does this stuff always have to happen with the worst possible timing ?
Last week was pretty hectic at work with the holiday and all. Didn't do much for the 4th but we had a yummy dinner at Legal Seafoods in White Plains, NY which was good. Yesterday (Sun) we went to the Berkshires in MA to check out a neat Monet exhibit at an art museum there. Afterwards we had dinner at a really yummy Swiss restaurant (it's really neat - the restaurant is located half in MA and half in NY state so they have two liquor licenses, two phone numbers, etc.).
Mail Update: Since my last update letters have gone out to: Lotte/Denmark and Alex/Spain. Received letters from/owe replies to: Kimber/Canada and Tiffany/OK.
