The End Finally Happened

(The moon out our backdoor)

  Finally, I came to the end of a huge, giant mess!

 A mess that took a year to fix (and in many ways still isn’t fixed, but oh…well.)

 A year ago in February I inherited this mess.  The person who was supposed to be ‘doing the job’ stopped doing the job and then finally retired saying “It’s a mess, but I guess that’s life”!

 For months on end I sorted through boxes and drawers, I filed and re-filed.  I researched and hunted down.

All along my REGULAR WORK kept on going on. 

 Of course the HGM (huge giant mess) impacted my regular work, and the work of the college, and the three other companies I work with.

 But on Thursday of last week, I finished. 

 IT took me a year. 

 As soon as I pushed send on the file, I got sick.

 I spend the weekend sick. I’m still trying to get myself back to snuff, but I am at work. The piles are smaller, regular work is humming along.

 I’m just glad I can now integrate the HGM into my regular work. 

 I’m glad now that the HGM won’t cause me to lose anymore sleep. 

 Finally it’s done.

  1. Thank you for the photo of the moon. It has been overcast here, so we haven’t been able to view the spectacle. Yes, I too hope you are recovering and feeling much better. Hope you can get some rest or some time away to enjoy your self. Or both!

  2. The moon photo is a beauty. Glad you had a clear sky to enjoy it. Congratulations on putting the HGM behind you. It takes real perserverance to slog through a dull project that will probably take a very long time. Good for you not passing it on to some other poor soul. Hope your health improves quickly. Take some time for yourself. You’ve earned it!

  6. I hate those HGMs. They seem to have a life of their own and then they want to take over yours. I always imagine that they growl; FEED ME!

    Rice pastry flour will work wonderfully for the empanadas.

  7. Don’t you feel good when you accomplish a job that has been hanging around for ages. Sorry to hear you got sick in the end. So tell me do you work full time and run a farm and a blog? You must be a wonder woman.
