July 6-11th: Surviving a short-staffed Applebees Inspection
July 12-21st: Vacation in the Southwest
July 22nd & 23rd: Doubles at the 'Bees
Today: First day back at the Democratic Office
But before I could come in today, I had to deal with a lost debit card and orientation for an ESL conversation class I'm teaching in August. So instead of 10:00, I didn't get here until 12:00.
A lot of what I've been doing today is office operations related. Doing a lot of cleaning, moving some of our new Obama computers around. I also helped Bro' with a mailing, talked with JKR, was going to send out a absentee ballot request (but the dems changed my password, so I don't know how to log into the VAN (voter database) anymore, and can't do that until I see D), and now I'm working on my senior outreach stuff. I've decided Iowa has too many senior homes/apartments.
I still haven't been able to sit down with D. since I got back, so I'm not sure what all I'll need to work on in the coming days, but some things include creating a "Front Desk 101" handout - telling volunteers how to man the front desk when I'm not here - and also updating the HQ Phone List to reflect all the new Obama numbers.
Today has been a hard day. I've been working on this project so long that it is really hard to keep going on the senior outreach database. I've also been without my computer and/or internet for almost two weeks, so there was a truck-load of email and other things to go through that also provided distractions. I think I might spend my evening at the coffee shop, with my computer and my work... just kind of plow through more of it all at once. See if that helps at all.
