Catching Up

Believe it or not, I have 2 other blog posts started. I did not complete either one but saved them to the side to finish and post. Any guesses as to what they were about? If you guessed Christmas and New Year's you are absolutely right. One of them even included pictures. Too bad they weren't finished. I don't have a lot of time today. I was going to try to finish them but I think it would be easier for today at least just to do a new one.

I have been SUPER busy at work. I am working about 12 hour days and some graveyards on the weekends. Thank goodness that I finally got a girl hired. She has started training and will continue to train through the weekend. Hopefully, this will be my last weekend of working graveyards. My other staff have been really helpful through this. They are patient with me when I get a little too cranky by Tuesday. They have also helped with the extra shifts so that I only work 1 or 2 instead of 4. I know that on salary you should adjust your work load accordingly to only work approx 40 hours a week. I have the liberty to do this, but the reality of that is pretty crazy. I am saying though, that I am really going to try once this girl gets trained to not work as much. To take that time. It may not happen because I am always on call 24/7 but......it's a thought right? They say it can be done - I am out to prove them wrong - but hopefully they are right.

In the midst of this, I have learned that you can get a lot accomplished wearing headphones in my office. I am in an office with 8 to 10 other supervisors and my supervisor's office is adjoined on to the same office. You can only imagine how loud it gets in there. It is crazy. But this week, I brought my headphones and away I went working. It just dawned on my that you have never seen my office. I guess I will have to take some pictures and really do a post about where I spend a lot of my time.

I was super happy when I got off of work at like 9pm last night. I got home and Amber and I played Rock Band, Country version. (You might have seen my post on Facebook). I had a great time. We played the entire game - like to the point where you get to the end and instead of another level coming up, it inducted us into the Country Rock Band Hall of Fame. Yeah, it was like 1am when we were done. My fingers were REALLY cramped by then. But I am very glad to admit that I only made below a 94% once. Every single song (except THAT ONE) I scored above 94. Although I PREFER GUITAR HERO to Rock Band, this is an accomplishment. And for those of you who know anything about the game - no I was not on the beginner level!!!! I played the entire game on Medium.

I am going on about this - I am not sure why. Maybe because it is 3:40pm on a Friday afternoon. I was supposed to be off at 12pm but got stuck in an afternoon meeting. So, the meeting is finished and my desk is clear. Guess what that means -

I think I might go home. Or at least get out of here.
