The title is a saying used by one of my Canadian friends "Jeff". It always conjures up images of someone working furiously. Hold that image in your mind and that is how busy I have been this week.

My company wins work in several ways and one it to respond to Request For Proposals (RFP's) from government departments or large organizations. They always seem to sit on and RFP for a couple of weeks (or more) while they decide if we should bid or not. Then they say yes and a team is allocated to respond and often we have only a week or two to deliver a two to three hundred page response complete with estimates and detailed plans. The work is normally hectic and calls for herioc efforts to deliver on time. Well this week I have been splitting my time between two RFP response teams!

Besides my busy work life we have been watching Spring working it's magic on the snow banks. We have just a little snow left on the back garden. It is hard to think of the amount we had on April 6th and now we have our deck back and we have put out the table and chairs (retrieved from their winter storage in the garden shed). We have even sat out and eaten lunch. Monday night saw our first campfire of the year. We lit a fire in our fire pit and sat around talking until about 10pm. Ah summer is coming.

Today it is raining and grey, I like these days because they are rare and they are restful. Friday and Saturday are forecast wall to wall sunshine at 13c.

Must dash I have some more paper to hang before the weekend.
