I have been so busy. Work has been gruelling. Working all kinds of hours. New big boss asks if I want to work CAT duty (catastrophe) due to Hurricane Ike. We have gotten 1000 claims in Western PA alone. I am already working OT (with no additional pay as I am salary.) I just can't keep up and I can't do anymore. I find it very difficult to feel sorry or empathize with people in the office as they log out every day at 4:30pm. Here I am at 1:13amd and still working. I feel very beat up lately. Husband going through depression problem right now. Driving me nuts. Just can't focus and can't get anything done around here. I have to get my work caught up. I know I keep saying that. Good thing- We were invited to take Kona to a Gordon Setter dog show this past Thursday in Gettysburg PA. She was a rescue. They had a rescue parade with Kona and 2 other rescue Gordons. She did really well. I was really proud of her. She spent 2 1/2 hours in the car and walked into a huge room with hundreds of strangers and strange dogs and even let people pet her! Now I could tell she was nervous but after a while she really calmed down. So all in all a good experience. And they gave her a big blue ribbon for participating. That was really cool.
