Irritations

There does not seem to be any time anymore.

We have hired someone new but they don't start until the 22nd.

Steve is doing very well in school and is busy with soccer and cub scouts.

I am dealing with my favorite vendor......

Vendor "I see an active issue report here that if the bill date has a date in it the process won't run. Can you clear the bill date and then try it again?"

Me "I am looking on the account screen and don't see a bill date, can you tell me where the bill date is and I will clear it and try it again"

3 days later

Vendor "Can you run the process again so that I can see how you are running it and then I can find the bill date. I don't know where it is right now."

Me "I found it." I looked at the program for 15 minutes and low and behold there it tells me where it is.

Owell I should know by now just to look myself, I seem to find it faster than asking the vendor to help me with my problems - they can't seem to answer any of my questions lately.

But of course if I do not respond to their email within 20 minutes they are trying to call Kelley because the just can't seem to get a hold of me. She does not even work on this project anymore and even though they have been notified they still call her - poor girl its not like she doesn't have enough people callling her to have to get calls about my issues.

URGGGGG

Anyway I hope all is well. Maybe someday I will be able to visit instead of just popping on once in awhile to pop off :)
