It’s
almost unbelievable that I’m halfway through with my busiest season of
the year, Scarborough. It’s been a whirlwind of fun, busy, and some
stress over the changes at my pays the bills job.
The
day job has settled into more of a routine, and while I’m still on
“probation” until, umm Memorial Day, I’m not particularly concerned
because I’m proving myself (again), and getting everything done that has
been asked of me. My goal this week, while the T is on vacation, is to
finish getting everything that was waiting for me when she left
completely entered, so that next week I can hound the boss and get the
pre-emptive paperwork processed to keep us from getting nastygrams on
the 15th. She can never manage to do it, and as a result on the 12th of
last month I worked a 13 hour day with no real lunch break. That is NOT
going to happen this month, I am determined! I am a bit frustrated by
one co-worker who’s sort of abusing her absence by spending more time
than usual talking to her boyfriend on the cell phone and trolling the
internet for barrel racing videos. Hopefully tomorrow that’s going to
get resolved, but we’ll see.
The
Faire job has been fun, as usual, and I’ve done pretty well with not
overdoing anything. We’ve made it through 2 weekends on our own, without
any incidents, and I’ve learned a few new recipes to mix up existing
scents, as well as making up a few more. This coming weekend is my last
weekend with my awesome friends from Galveston, which kind of makes me
sad, but next weekend is the weekend that my BFF and identical twin from
another mother will be in for our jaunt. We missed it last year, and it
was a real downer.
For
now, it’s off to bed for a good night’s sleep so I can get up and get
an early start. Tomorrow’s laundry night, so I can get packed to leave
Friday morning.
