Life with the Two Crazy Dogs

I took Friday as a vacation day so I can burn more vacation hours. Thought I would be goofing around and just chill. Low and behold, I need to work at home. Boss called and wanted me to work on the spreadsheets like ASAP. Crap, didn’t expect Boss to call me at home to check my email and work on the spreadsheets. After my breakfast of oatmeal with cranberries, raisins and walnuts off I went to my home office and cracked my brains with the spreadsheets. I had to create a pivot table on the earnings data and did a VLookup on the Roster spreadsheet. There were 1060 rows, so the VLookup worked really slick with the copy and paste of the formulas. When I was done with that, did a totals for the rows….all the f-ing-hymers were flying everywhere. I forgot to add the ‘$’ for Absolute Referencing on my fomulas. Son of a bitch…gotta work on the fomulas for all the 84 columns. At last after 3 hours dinking with the 5MB file, I was done. Took up half my day. Emailed the files to Boss and the rest of the team and told them don’t bug me for 2 hours coz I need to go to the trails for my run. Erg…wasted half my day which I had plans to go for lunch with Mrs R at Great Moon. Boss said she owes me vacation time….you bet you do.

My homeoffice which was used to be a nursery.

Ranger, the fart monster under my desk.

The living room where my piano is. Ranger wanted to be the center of attraction.

Here is our fiber optic Christmas tree which is coming down tomorrow.


The fireplace in the living room.

So, came back from my run, hit the piano for about an hour pounding away on the Chopin’s piece - Prelude No. 15 (Raindrop), Schubert’s Ave Maria and brought out the Sonatinas and pounded on them. Then I thought, crap my nephew wanted me to put more pictures on the blog. Took the camera out, the freebie POS (piece of shit) camera and took some pictures of the house since my sister has not seen the house before. So, sis, you gotta excuse the mess in the house. I’m a real clutterer. I hate picking up and cleaning.

My messy office - didn’t bother to clear up the printed material I’d used for my class.

Another shot of the former nursery. The vacuum cleaner is sitting there reminding me that the house needs a good vacuuming.

And, finally the messy kitchen. The packet sitting on the stove are dry “hor fun” and the 2 small yellow packets are seasoning (from you, sis) for tonight’s dinner.

Here I am blogging and DB is waiting for his dinner. He can start munching on chips and nuts at the time being.
