3.

1) computer: The short version: sent the graphics card back, they tested it and say it's not faulty. Brian then takes everything apart again and now says they may be right and I actually have a faulty memory stick. He'll phone them today and the whole returning parts saga begins again. Starting to wonder if I'll ever actually get this computer back.

2) timetable: For those of you that are new here, I work at a Day Service for adults with learning disabilities. As well as working directly with the clients, I'm also responsible for drawing up the main timetable and running the day-to-day cover. Usually we have one main timetable which runs from September to July, then a summer timetable from July to September. It's that time again where I now have to start drawing up the summer timetable. This involves consultation with all the clients here as well as the staff, then trying to put together a timetable that meets everyones needs and requests, so yeah, bloody hard work. I generally have a bit of a meltdown whilst doing it, so be warned. This new edition I'm working will be even harder than usual as we're making a lot of changes to the structure and schedule of our day, all of which I need to try and incorporate. We're then probably switching to a 3-monthly timetable, which means me drawing up a whole new timetable 4 times a year instead of twice. Please bear with me whilst I slowly lose my mind. Between this and [livejournal.com profile] paperlegends I'm going to be a busy girl!

3) merlin fics: Posting over at [livejournal.com profile] reel_merlin starts on June 7th! EXCITED! Lots of lovely long fics to tide me over (maybe!) until the [livejournal.com profile] paperlegends stories are posted!

Oh no, I had hoped the problem was solved with the one sending back but guess not :( My darling once had to send back his new motherboard twice before he got a functioning one (and a different model from the first two as well because the first product clearly wasn't reliable) and it was an awful hassle. I hope sending back the memory stick really does the trick!

Good luck with the Timetable of Doom!

*hugs*
