I went back to work

Category: Daily Happenings | Posted: Tue Apr 10, 2007 5:12 am

I went back to work tonight. I had help from the lady who has been working in my place. I felt like I had five moms. They just wouldn't let me get the job done. I had to set at the reference desk for half an hour so the reference lady could have supper. Then, I put fiction books in order and they would only let me put books on the shelving cart top two shelves. None on the bottom shelf so I wouldn't have to bend to get them. I couldn't shelves books on the bottom shelf, I had to take them back for the other lady to do. Every time I came back I had to take a break. My knee is a bit swollen but not any more than it usually is at the end of the day. I bet out of the three hours I didn't work half of it. I have two days off now and will work two days and have three off and then be back on my normal shift, Mon-Thurs and Sat. I only work 20 hours a week. I felt like I was just visiting and they let me shelve for practice. But, it was nice that they were concerned that I would do too much. I was good all day and rested so I would be able to work tonight, too. Oh, well! Next week, I'll be on my own and maybe they won't be so momish. Dooley

I'll bet it felt great to be back,
even with so many mother hens clucking around you.
If you're like me, a little of that goes a long way.
*hehe*
That'll teach you not to injure yourself

Glad to hear you are getting back to normal with the knee. Please don't overdo it you don't want to re-injure it. Sorry, I'm sounding like a mom. Have a good day at work.

Glad your knee is getting better. Nice that everyone is looking out for you. You'd probably be doing the same thing for someone else if the situation was reverse.

Dooley, as a Mom yourself you know that Mom is always right so do what your five Moms say and be a good girl...at least until the knee is completely well and truly healed. :)
