Have you ever heard the inspirational tale about the mouse that falls into a bucket of cream? He cannot get out. He is at risk of drowning but keeps trying to swim for so long that eventually he churns the cream into butter and survives.
I don't have butter yet, but I am churning and trying to keep my head above it all. I hope to be walking on butter soon.
My new job is great! I really do love it, but I am soooooo busy that the day just flies by and I am still swampped. I have been going in early and staying late trying to get in front of it all. It doesn't help that I am exhausted from my personal life as well.
I got back from Denton on Sunday. I worked until 8:00 on Monday. On Tuesday I had dinner with some old friends that I see about one or two times a year, and on Wednesday I attended a Happy Hour that I set up weeks ago in an effort to play cupid for a couple of single friends. [I don't think that I ever tried to set up anyone before.] Don't know if it was a "love connection' but they seemed to have a good time.
I look forward to a relatively quiet weekend at home with my family--the people I have seen very little of over the last seven days. I also look forward to catching up with the workload at my new job and getting to a normal pace. Oh, and sleep would be nice, too! Guess I should head to bed now...

We miss you on the boards....but I'm glad you're liking your new job.
Don't worry - once you figure it out, you'll be running the place.
A mouse churning butter ... I like that...
Just remember to come up for air every now and then!
Great story about the mouse ... shows what a little persistance can do.
