K popped into town on Wednesday night. He returned to Denver to rescue a bid that was going to hell. One of the key people working on the bid called K a few days earlier from the Denver airport with the news that he was on his way to Kabul. The man didn’t give K any notice that he was leaving the project. K had to come back to get the project back on track. He worked long hours on Thursday and Friday and also worked most of Saturday. K flew back to St. Louis on Sunday morning.
I need to call my mother today. I’ve been dreading calling her. I’ve put off calling her all weekend. I just don’t want to talk to her.
It’s cloudy and overcast this morning in Denver. I’m working from home and I don’t have any motivation.
The mediation for my EEO complaint is scheduled for Wednesday. This has been dragging on for two years. I’ve got to read over the documents tonight and tomorrow night to prepare for the mediation. I can’t wait for this to be over.

Handle all your unpleasant tasks early, then you can enjoy the rest of your day. Call your mom. No expectations, just talk. Then have a stiff drink. =)
Sorry your time with K wasn’t relaxing for both of you.
