this is not knitting related so much… but I’m thinking my Olympics challenge should be changed to getting the bills to be paid at work well, paid. but I can’t. because they keep giving me huge stacks of checks towrite to clients (yay settlements). and every time a new collection of bills comes in, I feel I should bust out into a Highland Jig (see the gallery at dancers-tale.com if you’ve never seen this danced). yes, every time someone drops off a bill, the fists start flying behind my cubby wall. at all of “Thing”’s relatives. (you know, Thing. of Addams Family fame. because the bills are delivered by hands only now. I rarely see a body attached to said hand.) so, it’s now Friday, I’ve paid some bills during the week, but seriously, the stack yet to be paid will FILL one of those little stacking desk trays. (one tray. but it’s to the top and bumping into the tray stacked above. and there are more to come! argh!) so, once I finish lunch, the goal is to make half the pile disappear before I leave. I think that’s doable. I just hate to see how many bills come in over the weekend to take their place.

(oh, and Olympic knitting is stalled at the moment. I did something stupid while trying to do the 3×3 ribbing row and talking about dance steps at the same time. I need to fix that tonight and continue on. and I’ll be lucky if I’m 25% finished by the end of tonight. which isn’t good, since this is nearly the halfway point of the Olympics. I should be half done by now, right?)

goal for this weekend tonight: get the computer set up and get pics off the camera. I’m going to the Scottish Ramble to watch the Highland dance competition tomorrow and need all available camera memory. later this weekend goal: get pics sized for blog and bring them with so I can post them on Monday.
