Friday Fun & Games

Long, long day today. Tablets seemed to have immediately kicked in so I was bright and motivated in the morning, but there was hassle after hassle at the office. One member of staff resigned (which was accepted) and my deputy manager told me he was offered a better job by my former boss (his resignation was declined). Pleased I managed to convince him to stay.

Due to the ending of the last campaign and the beginning of the next there's been massive amounts of teething problems - new commission structure, new operating procedures, new data collection and implentation - the list goes on.

Will be holding training sessions all next week to bring the guys up to speed on the campaign and systems. It's an exciting really as it's the first campaign that I've handled from the start, I'm really confident; mainly because most of my efforts thus far have been with on eye on this project. Fingers crossed.

Clare was catering today for a friends school so she was pretty tired when she got in but pleased to be doing something positive. We're very close at the moment, and doing at lot of (fairly small) things together. Aloise is kicking all the time and feels to me so much bigger than I remember with Molly. She also seems to have more than the normal amount of limbs - you can feel "kicks" in about 7 different places in a short space in time.

Caitlin has been in the hospital again with siezures, Brent and Megan have just asked to be left alone this weekend - they're shattered and I wish I could help in some way. They don't want to leave Caitlin, but they haven't slept in days; just as things settle down a bit, it's back off to the hospital. We're getting pretty used to phone calls at strange hours now...

Weather is beautiful at the moment, and it's Children's Day on Sunday so I'm going to take Molly to Feilding for the kiddies events - quite looking forward to it. Molly is a proper person now, and we can actually hold conversations - I don't know why but it seems more rewarding when it's just one on one.
