When I walk in my office all I see is mounds of work waiting for me. Luckner’s desk piled with work that I have laid out there, the top of the filing cabinet, the little table I’ve set up to my side, the top of my computer desk, the floor between my desk and his desk, and a long narrow table sitting behind my desk. All this is covered with papers and work to be done. Some of it is papers that need to be organized and filed that I have not been able to get at for almost a year. I have always kept things organized and up to date. Doing so has been detrimental to my health but now it is impossible to do so, even if I worked 24 hours a day.

The other office is covered with textbooks and one end of the living room is a mess with textbooks. There is a lot of typing needing to be done for the school. My dining room table is moved to outside my office and it is covered with receipts and stuff for the financial report for June, July and August. I normally do them every month but it was not possible.

I get up every morning around 4:00 to get the days’s work started. I hope we can find someone to come down for a month or two before the housing is built. If I have to wait until Feb or later for help, I will survive but I really, really need it now.
