A many splendored thing

Today was an insane work day. Matt had me trekking everywhere and it was quite exhausting actually. Days like this make me glad for Danielle : ) I started my morning finishing up some billing, as the 25th of the month is my deadline to get my invoices in to my General Contractors. It used to be fairly straight forward and I only used to have one GC and now I have 4. It's not as bad as some people, but it sucks some days. After I had my paperwork ready for Matt to come and let me know what numbers he wanted, I went to Service Canada for a ROE Web Seminar. Just so I can save paper and not have to fill in those tedious forms anymore. Now I fill out the tedious forms online! Service Canada had this seminar basically just to get you going, but it takes two weeks before everything is ready for me to begin... whatever.

After that, I headed home as I had forgotten my CCDC 9 sticker. I had to take the Stat Dec into the Notary to be signed, as always, and I forgot the sticker. I hadn't made the appointment for the Notary yet anyway as I usually just walk in.. but apparently he's having hip surgery so it was a new guy and I had to make an appointment. So I was home for a bit, then headed to B & G to pick up some shop drawings. I then had a tiny chunk of time to kill so I went to Staples and bought some much needed supplies PLUS two of the most beautiful journals I have ever laid eyes on. They look more like Bibles actually. Completely soft leather with a button clasp... *SIGH*. I'm so excited!! I wanted them for the boys as I'm going to just start taking notes about stuff so I can give them to them when I'm dead.

Then I went to my Notary appointment and came home after (again) to mapquest the Construction office I needed to take my shop drawings to. It was in Port Moody and I didn't leave until 2. Ew. But it turned out not to be that bad.

Matt came over around 3:45 and told me how much $$ to bill everyone, then I just started printing off paperwork and signing everything to be faxed. I still need to courier it all tomorrow, but I was mostly done by about 5.

And just think, I'm getting a second wind now!!

My sidebar for today is that Malachi is walking all the time now. He'll walk from one end of the room to the other and it's heartbreakingly adorable. The kid is cute, what can I say?
