Welcome to the New Year. I am a few weeks into the old year still. My short term memory hasn’t caught up to my long term memory and my short term memory, frankly, is falling down on the job.
EmmaLou, Golden Destroyer, gets a monthly pill for heartworm and flea control. She should have taken them the first of January; I remembered them this morning, the 5th, 6th of January. Wait…what day is this again? Ack.
I’m working on a project that should have been finished at least one to two weeks ago to give me adequate time to prepare for the next phase. Oh yeah, I haven’t started it yet. I have a new solitaire game on my computer and it keeps calling my name.
Never did get those awful dents on my relatively new car pounded out…you know, the ones caused by that freak hail storm, oh, I dunno, how many months ago (?) There’s a voicemail on my phone from the lady at the auto body shop. I should probably do something about that. Need to get rid of that phone…
Lest you think it’s just me, allow me to relay what happened to Devoted Spouse the other day… We have been attending the same church for almost 7 years now. We go to the same service regularly, always arriving a few minutes early to grab some coffee and chat w/friends. Devoted Spouse is going to be volunteering his time at the computer check-in station for a specific upcoming event and needs to be trained. In emails with one of our pastors, he agreed to arrive at church a little earlier and get some valuable OJT. He told the pastor he would be there at 9:30 prior to the 10:00 service. The problem is this church HAS no 10:00 service at our location. He knew this and yet that’s what he emailed. Now our pastor thinks Devoted Spouse is certifiable. I felt better, though. It’s not just me.
I want to speak with whoever is in charge of time and ask them kindly to hold things for a few weeks until I can catch up. Then there’s that issue of starting fresh I need to contend with. Maybe after the New Year…sigh…
