Work is so "hard."

I realize I've only worked 10 1/4 hours so far, but, seriously, I forgot how hard it is to work and get Cameron to complete his schoolwork and homework.

I'm enjoying working for Glenn's boss. This week is a deadline week so I'm on a full-out schedule to get it done quick. The company is installing graphic film on two floors of a high rise office building downtown. Right now we are working on the 20th floor. There are 31 frames of windows. The frames consist of 10-20 different size and panes. The graphics are different for every frame and there are two different films/colors in each design. My job is to download the design from the film manufacturer who has deciphered the blueprints sent to them by the architect. I get to separate the shapes for each color and put them on a "table," trying to leave as little space as possible for waste. Then I have to plot or cut them for the guys to install. So far I have completed 2 windows fully cut. Three more have been set up for cutting when we get more film tomorrow. I expect 4-8 more designs to come via email tomorrow. Several of the frames are solely squares and rectangles, which I don't need to cut, as it is easy for the guys to do it free-hand. The entire 20th floor needs to be completed by Friday so I expect to be very busy over the next few days.

Tomorrow I have to meet Tony about 9:45 a.m. and work until 10:45 then off to occupational therapy with Cameron. Once we return about 1:00, I expect to be working most of the afternoon and evening. Yet, sometime during the day, I need to come home for about an hour or so, so that Cam can type and essay an complete a 50 word spelling test. Both need to be done on-line and there is no wireless internet at the shop. I can't wait until Saturday when this deadline is over and done with!

Don't get me wrong, I actually enjoy the job. I'm just not used to having my time taken away from Cameron's schooling like this. I'm used to being able to drop everything to answer a question or look something up for him.

On a super happy note...I connected with one of my cousin's in Florida. She has always been one of my favorite's and I helped her plan her wedding several years ago. She was supportive of my relationship with Kelly several years ago and made an effort to support the communication between and made it available when there was no other way. I miss her tremendously and although I know we will never be as close as we were before due to other family members, I am just so happy to have talked to her on the phone and on Facebook.
