Progress Is Slow But It's Getting There

I finally had a chance to return to my "Major Project" at the shop yesterday afternoon. I wrapped up everything that had been left for me to take care of, and actually had more than two hours to devote to continuing my Swarovski Crystals Master List. Without this list, doing any comprehensive sale of this product line would be impossible. With the list, we might have a chance of doing things reasonably and relatively easily. Relatively. I can't count on anything. But in my head, this will help things run MUCH smoother. It's a lot of work, though. 




My Master List has the Color Name in Column One, 
and the product number for each size I carry that color 
in (and have stock available) moving across the page. 
So far I've done the 3mm, 4mm, and 5mm sizes, and I'm 
in the midst of the 6mm size. Of ONE shape! I haven't 
tackled how best to set this up for the other major shapes, 
and I'll need s totally different sheet for the specialty 
shapes. It's a HUGE department. 



Today is my "day off", and I'm doing grocery shopping and making "Ogre Juice" for the upcoming week's lunches. I was reminded again of how important my green sludge has become in my life when I didn't have the time to eat lunch on Monday. When DH asked me if he should bring up my alkagizer, I was hip deep in working with a customer, and really couldn't take the time for lunch. So I said "No, I'll have to wait for a bit". Well, he never bothered to ask again, even though I would have had time within that hour. So I never had the chance to eat. It's rather typical of DH, whom I'm quite sure was sitting at his desk playing "Bridge" on his phone. GRRRR. Inconsiderate. But, I got no lunch on Monday, and carried that over until Tuesday and it took a few days to get back on schedule, and my body immediately noticed the lack of Monday's "juice". 




When I don't have my four alkagizers every week, I really 
can tell. My body requires them, and it functions so much 
better when I'm eating/drinking them regularly, no fewer 
than four a week. 



Today, being Friday, will be a short kitchen day. I need to make my alkagizers for the upcoming week, but I don't need to make any meals, and I think I'm also OK on my breakfast fruit - although I'll make sure to check that too. The crops seem to be growing well, the Robin's nest is still intact and Robin Mama is guarding it fiercely. The weather is just about perfect - I'm liking summer thus far. But I'm also looking at a pile of papers on my desk that I desperately need to cull through, and bills to pay. So it won't all be sunshine and rainbows. I'll actually have to accomplish some things as well. *sigh* LOL (Honestly, I'd go a bit crazy if I didn't do SOMETHING for the house or whatever every day.) But I'm going to wrap this up with a minimum of drama and I'll be back tomorrow. Have an excellent day, Slava Ukraini and חיים למען ישראל.
