Audit Season

Posted on by

I’ve been a little sparse in the knitting and online world of late. It’s spring and that means one thing….annual audit season for local governments. I took a promotion at work back in December that has increased my responsibility and also we are down a team member. So its all hands on deck for financial reporting. Honestly….it’s exhausting and I have no brain space left after work. I come home to eat and play with my kids then I go to bed!

I’m just trying to figure out my new role and make sure all the accounting is good. This Office Space meme just about sums up my work day. I hope to pop in a few days a week here and then fire back up once the fieldwork portion of audit is complete.

Wish me luck!

Back To Work

I’m back to the working grind today. I wouldn’t say I had “fun” while I was off work but it was nice to knit and nap all day in between medicine doses.

I’m not 100% yet and my diet/exercise is still restricted. But I am ready to get out of the house and Jellybean is ready to have his fun Mommy back! I hope to get some posts up this week to catch you up on what I knitted while convalescing. It wasn’t as much as I hoped but I had several days where sleeping was the only answer to the pain. Upside is that I didn’t have any “unintended design features” in my WIPs! (At least that I have found yet)

Happy Knitting!!

I work in a professional office with some awesome people. But some days the ridiculous questions I get just make me want to boop people on the forehead like the V-8 commercial. And this past week I found this gem on the internet somewhere:20140524-140942-50982719.jpg

 

No clue who to give photo credit to but it’s definitely not me, lol. This image was just too awesome not to share!

All bets are off this week….

First, my show opens tonight for invited dress rehearsal. We are not in very good shape….one of the main characters cannot remember his lines or seem to stay in character. And the show runs almost 45 minutes longer than it should, not good. Oh and the director quit due to fighting amongst the board of directors. I have never been in a show that was in such a state right before we have an audience. We have five performances to get through between now and Sunday.

Second, my day job is crazy right now and I’m feeling a bit over utilized and taken advantage of. And it’s the beginning/end of month and is absolutely my busiest time. I need a vacation….but due to scheduling conflicts I can’t have time off when I want.

Thirdly, our landlord in our current rental house double booked this house. She promised it to the new renters May 1st and we didn’t plan on moving until May 11th. Totally her fault but see the problem? She is going to make it right with the new renters but we are trying to meet in the middle and trying to get ourselves out by this Sunday.

So in the next 5-6 days I have to do five live theater performances, pack the rest of our house. close out the books for month end at my job, and move into our new home. I am literally sick to my stomach right now. My whole life is shoved in boxes and I don’t even know where some of my knitting is….I really hope I survive this…

Hope to see you guys on the other side!!
