My week was good. My boyfriend and I moved into a new apartment on the 1st, but it's been mostly empty the past couple of weeks (in part because we've been traveling). We're back in L.A. now, and it's time to get this place furnished. Yesterday we went to Ikea and bought a lot of household items (some major furnishings were already included). It's a lot to think about and a bit overwhelming. I've only ever lived with my parents or in a dorm, so this is different. But it's so fun to do all this with him. We haven't been living together very long, but it's already clear it's not going to be an issue. This weekend we're spending time with a friend who's coming up from San Diego. Classes don't start until 9/25, so this is still summer break for me.

@Mellowgirl I'm glad you are getting time to rest!
I have been trying to get things done before I switch positions at work. It feels like there is so much to do and not enough time to do it. And my boss hasn't hired anyone yet that I know of, so my time to train is getting less and less.
Thanks for asking!

@ScreamingFox I ce again it seems that your life mirrors my daughters as both her and the grandson are sick.

I had a very productive week accomplishing projects in the house. The favorite part was getting wallpaper down and walls painted. No real frustrations this week just a few minor inconveniences. So, with that accomplished plans are to take advantage of the weather and enjoy the outdoors this weekend.
Hope your weekend is relaxing, refreshing and fulfilling.

Ugh..the day full of meetings, i know exactly what it feels like when you go one meeting to only discuss what discuss in the next two meetings... crazy!
My deep condolences!

@FoxyQueen I considered that...But I can see from how she reads emails from others and needs them explained to her that she has trouble with reading and comprehending.
Don't know if she has an undiagnosed learning disability - I'm certainly no expert.
Even tried another person training her in small tasks and he has to walk her through it - repeatedly. Having the same results.
The job IS very technical and detailed and requires the use of a proprietary software package.
She's a nice person but we are both frustrated with her lack of understanding and progress.

@FoxyQueen She's just about through the training program but I have to give monthly training reports and document her difficulties
I hate that part of the job - this is literally the first hire in 13 years that we made the wrong choice. She interviewed well - it's just the execution that's lacking
