I tried to work from home yesterday and will be doing the same today. By working, I mean dialling in to conference calls, which is how most of our meetings are conducted these days. Considering that about 60% of my daily effort is spent on the phone and the rest on email, I figure can be 60% productive from home as long as I have everyone's phone numbers.
While sitting at my desk yesterday, phone in one hand I received an email from Elaine. I haven't mentioned Elaine here before, but I contacted her some time ago and we corresponded quite regularly for a couple of weeks. Then about a month ago, her replies stopped coming. I waited a few more days then sent another note asking what it was I has said that caused her to stop writing, and that I was giving up. I forgot about her. Until yesterday. Apparently she has been very ill and in hospital for three weeks. I felt really guilty for what I had said, but at least we are back in touch.
I have no idea what she looks like as she didn't publish a photograph. All I know is that she is short. As for the rest, it will hopefully be a nice surprise.
