I'm at the table with empty drinking glasses, paper towel rolls, and other assorted things from the kitchen surrounding me. Oh, and the new laptop, I should add. I just completed my new course outline for class which begins tomorrow. This contract will take me through the end of April. I requested a less intense schedule than I've been recently doing. Rather than 16 contact hours per week, I'm dropping down to just nine. Moreover, the whole BC Institute of Technology will be closed for most of the 2010 Winter Olympics. There has been a major push to make way for the crowds of visitors expected to arrive next month. So, it took a lot of re-jigging to make my usual schedule fit these new timings.The paperwork has given me something to do while a guy is here putting in some new counter top. We are just replacing the 25-year-old, white laminate. We are simply updating to some differently coloured choices. This special order laminate will be an improvement and was far less than the granite would have been. Have got champagne taste but a beer budget, I guess.
I simply want to get everything back into a semblance of order. We still have some furniture to find. After the carpet replacement last month, we started living half out of boxes. Still are.
