The phone did ring yesterday morning and I went back to work. It feels like I've been back for longer than two days. It also feels like I've managed to forget most things. Being back is good...different, but good. It feels kind of like "Back to School" used to feel, but more weird.
Today's big excitement was getting my new phone system thing installed. My new phone arrived via the big brown truck this morning and it was supposed to be pre-programed, so all I would need to do was plug it into the back of my computer and then people could buzz me and it would be like I was just down the hall, even though I'm 111 miles away*. Two calls to our IT guy and one trip to Office Max the phone was actually working. (I'm quite proud of my phone installation skills as it was a lot more involved than plugging it in.) I'm even getting used to it. Thankfully, I can't really be buzzed--people can just dial my extension and it rings.**
So, now I'm back to work and my Martha Craft Room is sharing space with my actual office. I'm not sure when I'll be able to work sewing into my schedule. I am going to keep it up. I have many plans. I am thinking that it will need to wait until Abby starts school*** and then I'll be able to sew one day a week, clean one day a week and work three days a week. I'm pretty lucky with my schedule.
I just thought that you all should know that the phone did ring yesterday.****
*Yes, that is the exact distance from my garage to the parking garage I use and yes being buzzed is one of my worst nightmares.
**Don't ask me to explain exactly why this is so much better--it just is. I don't like being interrupted when I'm in the middle of a task.
***Which is August 24th, so that hardly feels like waiting at all
****I think that I only got about 10 minutes of laying down on the couch time too.
