Money conversion....
Some of the places that my 17 technicians work use FOREIGN MONEY! Eeeek! And then I have to make sure the expense reports have both the American amount and the foreign amount, mainly Canadian and sometimes Mexican. So Bernard (one of my bosses) shows me a website called "x-rates.com" that will convert American dollars to various other currencies. This is good, except now I have to figure out how to look up the exchange rate for the days the technicians were in the foreign country using foreign currency. Luckily only one guy seems to be a regular in Canada, this is good and bad. Good because his paperwork is usually all correct, bad because the other guys don't fill out said paperwork often enough to do it correctly. Oh well, this makes for paid work for moi! I got a gift card and tonight I bought an Amish book. I am going to my room and read my Amish book until Grey's Anatomy comes on at 9PM. I will report on the book after I get into it. Now, I should be finishing the Quantitative Decision Making Report...but the Amish Book is calling me!...to be continued...

Thanks for the conversion website. I often wondered if there was such a thing.
Is it a book about the Amish People or a novel about the Amish?
Was GA a repeat? I hope I didn't miss it last night. I was watching Take the Lead since DH wasn't around.

It is a novel about two Amish Girls called "The Convenant." This author (forgot her name at the moment) has written many books with AMish themes and her granfather or great-grandfather was Amish. I just finished a trilogy that she wrote and passed it along to my Mom. We like Amish anything, there are a couple of communities within driving distance and we like to go at least once a year. GA was a repeat...my cool daughter bought me the first season dvd for Christmas...thanks MEG! What is Taking the Lead?
