Two months later

It's hard to believe it's been two months since I last posted! Yikes! Let me see if I can think of all that is new:

• I'm now overseeing Hospice at work. This is actually a lot of fun, although a lot of work as well. We have a new Program Director that I'm mentoring who I think will be stellar in time.
  
• We have had a financial loss the last three months at work, with July being the worst. We just had our finance committee meeting today and it was rather depressing/discouraging and made me feel like the Board is simply not addressing the capitated issue which caused $120K loss. They are ignoring that piece and asking us to make more cuts in FTEs - and we just did $50K last month, which weren't yet reflected in the financials.
  
• We have a daughter! A Miniature Poodle one. After considering what a Standard Poodle pup would entail, I thought better of it and instead we have Chloe! She is a little black girl, now 8 lbs, and full of sprite. Talk about fun!
  
• I *may* have the Suburban sold. That would be HUGE....much less of a drain.
• We are working on purchasing a solar system for our house. That will save considerably on the electric bill.
