eor

I managed, on Monday I think, to make the garlic chutney that I had been intending to try. I think it turned out well. I will make sure and eat some if I anticipate a very close personal meeting with someone I detest. The recipe is here.

This week things have erupted into unexpected chaos. In short:

I am still employed
The company did a bait and switch on job assingments, I was in the one I had accepted for 3 hours and then moved "downstairs". I really don't like the new position. It doesn't fit well with my workstyle or pace.
I am required to work six full days a week for the next 4 weeks. (That wasn't part of the assignment I was originally slated for either)
My new manager is an a-hole
The van has decided not to run at all.
Wed. night the taillights shorted out on the little car.
Thurs. morning the little car had a flat tire.
Friday I got the tire replaced.
Last night I spent 4+ hours hunting for the short.
Oh, I've had a virus that I'm battling. It's giving me the occasional fever and chills and a sore throat. I'm giving it the finger and trying to get enough sleep.

I have developed a head down attitude. Picture an ox pulling. Must go work on car...
