So good

I'm helping radcliffe do some beading on her gown. I can finish ten pearl squares in fifteen minutes! That probably doesn't mean much to anyone else 'cept me, radcliffe, and solan_t, but I think that's pretty good. I worked on it for two hours this morning, so do the math. Of course, the skirt is so dang huge, you can't tell I've done anything on it so far. But I'm hoping that with some more time this afternoon and tomorrow I can make good progress.

Also, the scale this morning read 166.4! Slowly but surely...

Dilemma

Gov. Sebelius has granted state employees Friday off in observance of Reagan's death. However, offices that serve the public must remain open, if minimally staffed. There will be one person in the office (our payroll person has mounds of stuff to do before she goes on vacation next week). So.

Do I take Friday off?

Or do I come in and work and get 12 hours of holiday comp time to use anytime the rest of 2004?

Decisions, decisions...
