I did not realize that today was April Fool's Day until after I was home and talking to Hannah. I was so busy at work; I totally missed that fact, and no one had a chance to play a prank on me. I had back-to-back presentations all day. I was most impressed that I didn't get them confused once. I was a few minutes late for one call, but that was because I had to pee. 

 

I think the presentations all went well as they all asked good questions and seemed engaged.  When the presentations were all done, I went to my desk and started entering the notes into the system for each presentation. It was also when I grabbed a package of cheese and crackers as I did not have a chance to get lunch. As I was entering notes, I added up the numbers, and if we get all the work I presented today, the company will have an additional $25 million worth of new work. I ended up working late, trying to catch up on some emails.

 

I am going to have to talk to my staff tomorrow to find out what pranks were pulled off for April Fool’s Day. The office staff are known for their pranks. The people at the office can get pretty creative.

Cheers for now.

  Today I met up with Maria for some pickle ball. Neither of us is very good at it but we had a lot of fun. We started by just playing the two of us, but after a while, an older couple asked if we wanted to play against them. I think they didn't have a court reserved and wanted to play. Neither Maria nor myself had an issue so we said yes. They were pretty good and gave us some great tips and pointers.  After our match, Maria and I headed to a little cafe where we had lunch and talked. After that, I went home and worked on housework.  Cheers for now.

      Today was my last round of dealing with the auditors. Today it was the procurement team. Again, they went over every penny and every day off that was taken. I don't know what they are looking for but if they don't find it, it won't because they didn't look hard enough for it. I am glad I am done with the audit. I spent the rest of the day getting as much done and getting ready for me being on vacation next week.   I talked with my sister tonight. We are both excited for my visit to New York City on Saturday. We plan on doing all the tourist thing and eating way too much good food.    Cheers for now.

  I was glad I had no meeting today as it allowed me to get a lot of work done. I managed to get all the proposal reviews done and presentations scheduled, I also got a lot of work done on my end-of-month reports. I did read in an email that our division HR Manager is leaving. I am sad to see her go. I called her and she told me that she got an offer for an HR Manager with another company in town and she said the pay was really good. It will be sad to see her go but I wished her the best and told her we needed to stay in touch.   After work, I got a call from my mom and dad. They had heard about Lee and wanted to make sure I was okay. Apparently, when it comes to my love life, there are no secrets.  My dad offered for him and Uncle Bob to come to town and "re-arrange the guy's face." I smiled and said that would not be necessary, that I had it handled and would be fine. My mom gave me some advice on how to deal with a bad break-up. I asked her if s...
