Running on Fumes


Cute babies?  I gots em!!

Today my week of runnin and gunnin claims caught up with me.  As I pulled into the office at 6:15 to finish my last couple bits of paperwork I was on empty.  I went over to Rick's van to talk and could hardly hold myself up.  I am beat and I have 5 more tomorrow.  Here's hoping the heat and humidity let up a bit so I'm not so physically drained.  I'm also going to bed ASAP.  I have an appt at 7:30 tomorrow and once I'm done I have to pack up my van so I can move to the nicer hotel on Sunday.

As I was talking to Rick this evening we were discussing why he's so far behind.  As he was showing me some of his damage photos I said, that's not too hard, couple of entries and your done.  He looked at me like I had 3 heads.  Then I asked if he was using wizards, again more weird looking.  I showed him a great tool within our estimating program and it was like I'd just handed him a golden ticket.  He was spending hours hand calculating rafters and such when you input some numbers and the computer does it for you.  I hope I helped him and he can get caught up a bit faster.  

In one final note we got an email today stating that our hotel accommodations had been changed.  My heart sunk!  I need out of this hotel ASAP.  Turns out we are being moved to an extended stay but a fancy one by Hilton, not Marriott like we are accustomed to.  AND it's still downtown close to the mall so we have food options in walking distance.  I'm a bit excited for this new hotel, could be just the change of pace I'm needing.
