Administrative Assistant's Vacation

Administrative Assistant is on vacation for the next two weeks.  I told her she didn't need to leave to make me appreciate her.  She just laughed.  She's not in on Mondays, so yesterday was okay.  She is in on Tuesdays, and today has been challenging.  I've spent time searching her computer for 2 different documents.  I've struggled to figure out how to print a brochure, finally resorting to cutting and pasting to get the pages in the order I needed.  The treasurer and I spent some time looking for the card for an office supply store without success. 

I couldn't remember the leaders of the prayer chain, and had difficulties logging into the prayer list email account.  I was late for a meeting and then had a bit of a discussion with one member of the team who doesn't want the various doors in the church labeled.  He said that people who need to know where things are already know and he doesn't want anyone else to know.  Outsiders who come in to the church for a meeting should be personally escorted to their meeting.  Fortunately, the majority of the committee was a bit more reasonable. 

I slept for 9 hours last night, after sleeping in yesterday morning and going home for a nap in the afternoon.  I'm feeling better today, though still don't have much energy.  My peer group retreat is tonight.   I think I may reschedule the couple who wanted to meet with me this afternoon-- for some reason  haven't gotten the work I had planned for this morning done....  I miss Administrative Assistant.

I came back from my retreat today and I had voice mail as did another staff member. Both of us had a very difficult time figuring out how to retrieve it. I managed to get mine, but we never did figure out how to get the other staff member's. We miss AA.
