Ever had one of “those”?

The last few days have been a little busy to say the least… between packing boxes, doing some work for our company and for some clients, trying to book some appointments before we move, and to “shop” for a notary for my in-laws, I feel like I’m going bananas!

I decided to take a few minutes for me, and to express myself on my blog… I’m like an old engine, some steam need to come out! What started out as a fairly normal day quickly turned. As I tried to prepare the paychecks from one of my clients, I encountered a glitch in the system. I tried to solve it myself, to no avail. So I call the technical support. I was charged $113.95 for 45 min. on the phone with a technician who, in the end, told me he couldn’t tell me why it wasn’t working properly. The file might be corrupted on something. He gave me a “work around” solution, but the problem isn’t really fixed. Because I spent so much time on the phone, I missed the deadline to submit the pays so that the boys get their pays on Thursday. They will be paid on Friday instead. I’m sure I’ll hear about that.

Then, I decided to call around for a notary. My MIL asked me to do so; she wants to amend her will. I’ve called so many places and the prices vary so much from one to the other, it’s unreal.

While I’m on the phone, the notary of our house buyers’ called to set the appointment for the signing of all documents for the sale. I have a phone in both hands and I feel just a little stress by now…
Hang up with that one, phone rings again it’s a supplier re. an order I’ve been trying to place for at least two weeks. NOW he calls back! Of all time! Managed to do that as well. Stress level just a little higher…

Quickly eat a bite for lunch (at around 2pm), when the phone rang again. This time it was our new bank. They offer a service of switching all our automatic transactions for us. Great! But I have to provide them with all the account numbers for each thing. Gah!
At one point I told the lady to call me back another day – I wasn’t up for that just now.

Then I realised that I needed to make an appointment for my car, something is making noise when I turn corners, so I called the garage. (Going in Thursday morning for that.) I remembered that I wanted to make sure that all my car payments should be done as of this month – they are! Woohoo! My car is paid for!!! (At least, that is good news!)

Oh did I say that there’s a technician who just came in to fix our smoke detector? It was going off for no reason, at any time. Hubby cut it off last week, now we need to replace it. Why couldn't it break in a month or so? We are out of here in 10 days! But nooooo!

I feel a little out of breath… huumm...
