Doing an inventory is so much fun

If the baby is born by next Monday, I will be off work for a week to welcome our child, to make things easier for Heather, and to be an involved new Dad. Whenever the baby IS born, I will be off work for a week, to be more accurate. Today I have such an exciting project ahead of me, in anticipation of the baby being born sometime soon. I need to inventory spare parts on my truck and update the detailed list I maintain, so that the tech who covers the MN service for a week isn't completely clueless. Then again, some of the guys we work with are a bit lost even with guidance. All I can do is to make a list to explain where every single part can be found. Piece of cake, right?

I was going to take off two weeks when the baby is born, but Heather and I have been thinking better of that. We have concluded that it would make sense for me to take a week off now and another week in late spring, when the baby is a bit older, but, before everyone else takes a break during the summer. I never take DTO during the summer because everybody and his brother take one or two weeks of vacation during that time. I like to stay busy, and I can only have so much time off without going stir crazy. Therefore, it makes more sense in that regard to take off a week in January and a week in May.

Heather has a doctor's appointment today, so there may be news to report later today. Stay tuned. That inventory work awaits, so I am now just a figment of your imagination.
