Ugh...Yawn

The co-worker that I am currently replacing while she is on holidays can return ANY TIME now!!!  I never truly realized just how difficult and involved her job is.  I replaced her for a couple of days back in the spring but that was easy, peasy compared to the last few of days.  Nothing out of the ordinary in the day of an admin assistant, however, I'm not usually an admin assistant therefore it has been a very challenging week.  Things that would take her 5 minutes are taking at least twice that; I have to keep emailing people for help; I haven't had 2 minutes to do my usual work.  I absolutely have a new found appreciation for how much she does in a day.
Many people in the office make fun of her office, and I used to be one of them.  No more.  I understand why her office is usually a mess.  You barely manage to get one thing done before you're being asked to do something else.  There is absolutely no time to file anything or to get to the extra little things that one might like to do in order to facilitate future activities.  I am absolutely in awe of how she manages to do it without looking frazzled!!!  She has become an absolute inspiration to me :)

On a different topic...I LOVE my niece!!!  Sorry, just had to say it...it's about the only other thought that runs through my head as of late.  She is absolutely beautiful and I hate that I don't get to spend more time with her but I know that she will know how much I love her and that I will get to spend enough time with her that she will know me and know that she can always count on me :) ♥

I think that's all for me for today...just had to share that little bit!

Bonsoir :)
