Somehow I've Survived!

Do you ever have one of those weeks? You know the kind – Monday morning rolls around, you look at your “To Do” list for the week and silently swear it will be a miracle if you somehow survive the week much less get everything accomplished on your list.

It’s been one of those weeks for me and somehow, I’ve survived. Barely – but I’ve survived. So once again, I apologize for being a bad blogger and disappearing for the week but allow me to explain.

I’m an accountant. We are in the middle of month end closing and trying to get everything accomplished before the holidays. It’s a little crazy around here. Basically, I had two and a half days to get about six days worth of work completed this week. Let’s just say that made for an *awesome* Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday at the office. Oh and I also had an audit midterm on Wednesday. So in addition to working like a mad woman during the day to get month end reconciliations accomplished, I also had to put in about six hours worth of studying Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I was at the office by 7am each morning this week and didn’t leave until around 7pm. Oh and I drove home on my lunch breaks all week to take care of our little guest, said puppy.

I’m not complaining – I’m just saying. Please forgive me, I’ve just been busy! But Friday is here and I’ve only got one or two items left on my “To Do” list and I will be in the clear for the holidays! It’s three and a half days of work next week then I’m off until January 4th! And let me tell you – Christmas vacation cannot come soon enough!

So here’s hoping you’ve all had a productive, pleasant week and that you have an even better weekend!!!
