On the eve of Fiscal Year End 2006 I wait with much anticipation as to what may occur. As in past years, the financial situation has been volatile, however, it's never been quite like this. Within a matter of hours yesterday we went from having no money, to having lots of money (process everything now!), back to having no money again. If my head's spinning from thinking about all this, I can't imagine how the finance director and budget manager handle it all..

Work has been, to say the least, extremely busy the last few weeks. I can't say I'll miss the long days, working from home, and constant ringing of the phones. Unfortunately, even after tomorrow's deadline of 4pm comes and goes, I'll still be working my butt off getting ready to leave everything in my coworker's hands.

It's amazing how much has to be done to finalize everything I'm working on now, to leave as few loose ends as possible. When you work pretty much solo, you can't just drop everything and expect someone else to know what the heck is going on. So on top of processing what's currently on my desk, I have to leave detailed instructions on how to handle things while I'm gone.

But once I'm on that plane, you can bet I won't be thinking about work!

In other good news, we are finally single house-home owners. Our buyer was supposed to close on the 16th, but the day of the closing decided to switch lenders. Legally, we could sue her for any costs incurred during this delay, but it would cost more in legal fees than what it's worth. But we did receive notification yesterday that she closed on the house so now it's completely over with, which is a good feeling.

I know there have been other things I wanted to talk about, but the last few weeks have been so exhausting that any odd thought that wasn't completely relevant to the moment passed through my brain immediately, leaving room for much more important things.

Maybe I'll be functioning at 100% in August. :)
