Oh boy!

It is gonna be one of those horrid weeks. Just found out that I have to take minutes at an incredibly long, boring budget meeting this week. I can expect to be working on those minutes all day Thursday and Friday - probably Monday as well. Then, I'll have an incredibly long and boring work session next Thursday - and will be working on minutes all day Friday and Monday. Only to turn around Tuesday (27th) for lovely City Council meeting and then to work on those minutes for 2 days. Arg! When I took this job, I knew I'd have to do minutes - but I am waaaayyyyy past liking it. It is torture. Working on minutes of a meeting is just as torturous as calling people to find out if they would want to say the prayer at the City Council meeting (BTW, any takers on that? I have to find a prayer for the 27th. Takers? Anyone?) I don't see how my boss can stand to do minutes like he does. When I'm City Recorder (if that ever happens) you can bet your behind that my deputy will be the one doing all the minutes! And if they hire someone else for that position when my boss retires, I'll quit if I were expected to take all the minutes.

On a bright note - Tundra is much better! He still has a hard time getting up when it is colder, but the warmer weather sure has helped him. And, I think he is eating again. Earlier this week, the dogs weren't eating. I don't know if they didn't feel good or if Tundra didn't feel good and wouldn't eat and would scare Duke off from the food or if Duke didn't feel well either. But, they are doing better =) And, after my talk with Ster about Tundra getting old and not feeling well and that he may not be around much longer, Ster has been playing with the dogs alot. Unfortunately, he has been running around and screaming at 7:30 IN THE MORNING. (Had to explain to the kid that just because he is awake doesn't mean that other people are awake - and the guy in the trailer next to our fence probably didn't appreciate the noise that early in the morning!)
