Turmoil
Check out my lawn. No wonder I don't have any grass, it's all acorns! We had a bumper crop of acorns this year and the entire front yard is covered in them. They say you must plant about 100 acorns to get one to grow into an oak tree. With those statistics we will only have about ten thousand new oak trees sprouting up soon. The squirrels haven't even bothered to gather them, they just feast on the ground. It's made them into lazy little buggers.
In other news.
The past week has been one of great turmoil around here. There are major management changes in my husband's company and well.... they aren't handling the introduction of the new management/promotions/transition very well. My husband is just plodding along, not sure how the changes are going to affect him, it appears that the implementation of a "good old boy" network is in the works and he is not a good old boy. That's just fine and dandy with me. In any case it will prove to be very interesting the next few months as the transition slowly takes places. March 31st the new management will all be in place and I'm sure a few more people will be leaving in-between now and then. Employees in the home office are mostly affected by the changes, employees in the field are confused, and I'm sure investors are worried. The man at the rudder remains the same so that guiding hand is the same, which is good. The sail setters and rope handlers are the ones changing and that might cause a few sails to go flapping once in a while. Or maybe not. Maybe everyone will handle it better once it's settled down a bit.
