Kickin' my ass...

So I spent a fair amount of time yesterday trying to get the contracts database finished, but I'm still just plugging away at it, slowly but surely. Well, more slowly than surely, honestly. I keep running into various unforeseen problems, and I'm entirely certain that I'm going to run into a shitload more of them once this thing is put into even limited production use. I was just down talking to Deana, who will be the primary user, and she had a couple of other things that she was hoping to have added to the thing. I told her that at this moment, I don't think it can be done, but I've written them down to look into later, possibly. Right now, I just really need to get something done and into production. Damn it...

Last night, I did manage to get a little bit of work done on it after I got home, but nowhere near enough. I think most of the section to add contracts is done, and the part to match the contracts to the payments, but now I really need to get some visibility of the contracts and the ability to edit them. And now it's just being a pain to try to keep my concentration up on this thing, with continually worrying about a bunch of other crap.

In addition to working on the database last night, I picked up a few little things in the upstairs room and did a little more laundry, although I still have a bunch in the washer and dryer that need to be done. I also shredded a bunch of the old papers that needed to go. After the girlfriend got home, she asked if I'd mind going to the supermarket, so i also did a little shopping that I wasn't expecting to do. And then I spent too much time sitting around watching TV with her. Oddly, I didn't watch the hockey game that was on last night, though. I'll probably watch the one today, though. For now, though, back to trying to design these damned forms...
