Frustration

I am frustrated at work.  I am frustrated because I can't get stuff done.  Now it's not because I can't concentrate and it's not because I'm sick or tired.  What I am is sick and tired of the computers.  Our head office continually assures us that the computers are being fixed or that they are increasing the bandwidth, but frankly there has been no change.  The computers take 15 - 20 minutes to open a document and if you try to save a document, it slows down all the computers in the office, enough that we have taken to calling out "I'm about to save" prior to pressing the button.  It breaks your concentration and destroys any ability to work.  That is why I am frustrated.  Thank God for the iphone!  If it gets too frustrating we all challenge each other to a game of Boggle.  I love that game!

Jane is coming back to Australia.  I had predicted 3 months of the 2 year contract, but we only got to 2 months.  I have no idea how much money this is going to cost us.  I haven't been allowed to look at the contract but imagine that the exit clause is huge.  I have no idea what the next step is.  I have no idea what happened there and what the truth is, but I am hoping that we don't have to do this experiment again.  I think that Jane won't cope with it emotionally and we won't cope with it financially.  It is hard to have that kind of drain.  I feel sorry for Jo too.

The fun part of life continues as well.  Robert and I are working out the nitty gritty about the trip to USA, there are some fun parties coming up and we are getting organized to take Levi to a Powderfinger concert before that is just not possible anymore
