Alas, One Must Pay the Bills

[queenoftheskies]

I want to write while it's cool and my apartment isn't an oven.

But, one must work to pay the bills.

Don't get me wrong...I LOVE my new job. I LOVE the people I work with. Today will be the end of my second week and sometimes, I feel like I've been there forever. It just feels RIGHT, you know? I can't complain.

And, of course, you haven't heard me complain...which is probably a relief after all my complaining about the old and difficult job.

I am, however, exhausted when I get home. Partially from the heat and partially because the work is intense right now. We have two-day month-end close, inventory in July, July month-end at the same time as inventory, and system conversion from MAPICS to SAP.

So, there's a lot to be done and I'm tired...but I still LOVE it.

It just makes writing and things a little more difficult until I really get into the swing of the new routine.

I'm going to TRY to hit that last 3,635 (I think that was the number) words today to make my goal for the month. It seems a little far to reach, but...

I have a measley 400 words this morning. That's a start.

If I can manage 600 at lunchtime, on paper, maybe I'll have a chance.

Just...

Maybe. :)
