That is all she wrote?

So I am amazed by how many times this week hill that I was climbing seemed to get steeper.  I am not sure what exactly I am suffering from but I think it involves all my wrongs coming back to bite me.  I am certainly glad to see the end of this week and hope to have an opportunity to sit and relax.  Nope not a chance which is why I say the week and now it seems the weekend is still out to get me.

I was back to work this week, had a couple of stampede lunches and events to attend but we had too many things going on at work to allow for me to actually go.  Sad but true I put work before a free lunch.  One has to appreciate the importance that stampede holds on this city.  Full of people from out of town, business shutdown effectively and the week is a blur of pancakes and beef on a bun.  Lots of people and by people I mean adults spend the week intoxicated to a large degree.  Sales people for vendors spend their entire 12 days drinking, I am sure their liver thanks them.

But for me this was not a week of relaxation, too much happening we played finish work that was delayed due to the floods.  And this was followed by how many little problems will appear on your systems this week.  Thursday it was all day long, started with issues in the morning followed by one in the afternoon and another in the evening.  Just one long up hill climb.  Then a big one this morning and hey at 4pm on friday afternoon boom! lets turn on the firewalls on your citrix servers.  What the hell is that?!

Not to bitch too much but it is just a flow of a lot of little things that have amounted into too many things this week.  I am not convinced it is simply the company stretching us too thin and we are starting to see our systems wobble.  But I am frustrated and really just want it out of my head for this weekend. I am going to allow this little post to be my brain dump then.  I have now said my peace the week is officially behind me and I will move forward onto the positives.

With that I am now going to sign off and get some sleep.  I hope your weekend is full of the fun things you enjoy and that only the positives present themselves.

Smile.
