This morning I walked into the office a couple minutes before 9AM, thinking I had been told that I didn't need to be a part of the conference call-- miscommunication! She had been talking about a different call. Thankfully, I arrived before this particular call with one of the regions on the other side of the globe began. I didn't contribute anything, but rather listened and tried to keep up with the conversation. I learned a lot today about how Special Olympics funding works.
There really was not much to do today besides quick tasks. To be honest, I felt a bit useless. The things that needed to be done simply weren't things I could address. Sigh. Oh well. I keep reminding myself that it's going to get incredibly busy soon!
Our crock pot is back in use! We didn't make time to draw up a weekly meal plan last week, and so we did our own things (and ate out). Not the best. Last night we drew up a game plan for this week. Success!
Today was Picadillo!
That's right.
I made Cuban.
It was tasty! The girls decided it was a carb week, so we'll be doing pasta for the rest of the week.

Dad surprised me by telling me I've got dinner plans on Thursday! Sadly, not with him. He's been known to pop into Lubbock on short notice, but I imagine DC would be a bit harder to swing. A good friend of his will be visiting his daughter! She works on the hill ("The Hill?"Do I capitolize that? ....anyone? no?), and actually lives relatively close to me. What a fun piece of news!
I worked a bit on my presentation for tomorrow night, but really I'm leaving it until tomorrow. It would be wiser to complete it tonight, but I really don't feel well. I'm not quite sure what's going on, but I've been feeling a bit off since Sunday. Hopefully it'll resolve itself if I can find more than six hours of sleep. :/
Blessings,
