jennlkgot the painted nettle moved. Did not get anything else moved, and probably won't until later in the week. Or maybe even next week. But it's raining now! not very hard (which means it'll soak in), but they say it may do this for the next few days. I'm OK with that. Maybe by next week, I can go pull weeds
I was in the office every day this week. Monday I covered for Treasurer so she could go home and check on sick teenager/get lunch. Tuesday was regular work day. Wednesday there was online training that I couldn't log into from home. Thursday was regular work day. Friday was keep poking at platform peeps so they'd get my account set up. [Got an email late Thursday "your account is set up" "no it's not. this is the error I get" "hrm. we'll have to call in techs from the other end." As of 5pm Thursday, I still didn't have access. Friday afternoon, there's another email "you should have access now" "nope. And when I click on the Help button on the error page, I get *this* error." But I think I have the necessary access now (I went in from a different direction). (not that it's strictly necessary for this election - it's for a process that we don't have, but at some point it will be good to have.)]
I did discover that I don't need to build a test spreadsheet! w00t! the Bureau of Elections now does that, and all I have to do is download a PDF. (I could download test decks, too, but it's only 14 ballots, and I think I can handle that.) Ballots should be mailed by next Friday (26), so that's what I'll be doing this week. (must stop by PO and get mailing flats on Monday.)
Sometime in my copious spare time next week, I need to wash the plexiglas sheets for FCB. Wonder if I can get J to do that? There is one piece that both bands are doing, and it's gonna be harder than usual, as the the styles and tempos are very different. All I can do is watch the conductor, I guess.
