Who needs to know names?

This week is going pretty good so far!! Work is going by fast and its not disgustingly humid outside. But it will be tomorrow. Its supposed to be 95! And then put humidity on top of that. Yum.

But work is good. I'm so involved! I feel so much more comfortable now. I know the people in the office and I know what I'm supposed to be doing. Bonus! We are still getting the Florida project all put together. Right now the big push is to get all of the estimate forms sent out. These are the forms that we right up with the product from the company we want. We then send the form to the company so they can give us a price for the product. We do this for every single tiny thing that is being put into the residence. That's a lot of forms!! Just take a sofa for example. So we need a form for the sofa, a form for the upholstery, and a form for the custom pillows on the sofa, and a form for the fabric on the pillows. There are so many pieces to everything! Then we will get all the forms back and we will add up all the prices to get a total price for the project that we can give to the client so they can write us a big fat check :) And everything has to add up right because we don't want to have to go back to the client and say, "Oh sorry, we need $5,000 more from you for whatever..." that would be bad news!
So then next Thursday we will present the project back to the client so they can see the total cost of everything. They will get to see all of the materials and furniture and say what they like and don't like.

Its great to be so involved in the project. There is so much to learn!
I just can't wait for the half day on Friday, and I get to see Wicked on Thursday. Good week!
Only 8 more days of work. So crazy.

Cocoa Puff time!!
