There. It's exhausting just cutting and pasting this list. Execution???? (Well, my mind wanders to another meaning of that word.) Oh, I and forgot to include IT. That's right, I'm also the information technology department. I'm sure there's more. But on to seeing what I actually get done. I'll post about yesterday and today later tonight. Off to work now...
