Actually for being closed almost 3 days (we closed at noon on the 24th and reopened this morning) we weren't faced with as large a bookdrop backlog as expected. Our fantastic ILS people changed the due dates so that things that would normally have been due on the 24th or today are due on the 29th and 30th - that might have been part of the reason for the light load - but whatever the reason we had everything checked in and sorted for deliveries in a little over 1/2 hour! Amazing!
We were busy with people who were suffering computer withdrawal after 3 days - and some people who were just having a really bad day themselves and trying to foist their ill-will off on us - to no avail! Two hours of IM reference netted NO questions - but it did allow me to update my calendar for January and get the schedule set up for the new year.
It's going to be different next year (next week) since my boss of 8 years is retiring and a new one will be starting in March. Goodbyes are never easy especially after 8 years and a new building - but I know we'll be ok - and we wish only the very best for our retiring boss - and hope that she enjoys every minute of her well-deserved retirement!
