Good Morning All.
Well today is my first day of working from home.
We left work yesterday during early afternoon hours with laptops in tow.
I managed with a tinge of assistance from a co-worker on line to get set up.
I moved my office around and set up the laptop (which I have not really worked on before).
Set up the mouse and I am so glad that I brought home my keyboard, that was a good move.
Thank you to a fellow coworker who had decided to take hers home.
It was so much easier setting things up.
My office looks strange with my APPLE on one end and the laptop on the other.
Shortly I will turn on the laptop and start the day ….. my work hours are 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Still almost one hour but I want to do my timesheet and have everything open before 8:00 AM.
Poor Mr. Alvin is definitely wondering what is going on.
I think he noticed that I did not put on much makeup other than some eyebrow gel stuff and some lip care.
I think he definitely noticed that I did not put on my dress clothes and I know he noticed that I put on my work socks.
I did that just to throw him off.
He is just so smart.
I am kind of anxious to see what happens when I am on the phone (work) …. we have been hooked up through an APP for our phone.
This should be interesting.
Alvin does not like it when I am on the phone.
Hopefully after the day he settles into me working from home.
Much different than a weekend.
Yesterday my daughter picked me up some fruit, vegetables and bread.
She also picked me up a bag of CHICAGO popcorn (one with the cheese and caramel popcorn).
This was a treat for me, how sweet of a girl do I have.
The streets are still busy here or at least they were yesterday.
Our street has had cars zipping by all morning.
I wonder if this will change.
Well I am anxious to go and get my coffee and get started.
It will be much different working on a laptop small screen compared to our big computer screen at work.
Likely a bit slower going back and forth between windows but at least we are working.
Our clients will be happy about that.
I think some of them figure that with the doors closed to the public that we are not working.
But we are ….. we certainly are ….
We are all in this together.
Well time to go and get things going.
Starting to get light out there.
Be kind and respectful to all you encounter.
Remember to check on your elderly neighbours and those that are not able to get out and about.
If someone has a pet and they are sick, help out.
Make sure they have food for their pets.
If they have a dog …. take the dog for a walk.
Help where you can.
Be grateful you are well and are able to do so.
From an eternally grateful human being,
I remain as Always, Carol with her trusty friend Alvin
My geranium is blooming like crazy.
Outside the bunnies are beginning to turn brown.
Spring is official tomorrow.
Forgot to mention that I saw a coyote downtown on my my to work yesterday morning.
My daughter says there are many of them downtown due to the River Valley being close by.
