A run down of my week.

THANK GOD TOMORROWS FRIDAY!!!!

Monday- got up at 730 am and left house at 830 to go to work. I drove 7 miles and got there at 9am. Traffic here is horrible! I get to work and fill up truck. Then my friend who owns the station leaves me for the first time by myself and of course, we have the busiest day since opening the store. Figures. Im suppose to work from 10 am to 2 pm and my sister works from 2 pm til closing at 6pm. She calls and ask me to cover her shift. I do. I close up shop and leave work. I had to stop at the bank for a min and get home.Takes me almost an hour and a half to get home. Traffic was worse going home. I climb out of my truck to discover, I forgot to water my potted plants before I left home. So I let the dogs out and water the plants and take pics of roses.I do a load of clothes and take a shower. When I get out, I decide to call it a day and go to bed. Its now between 830pm and 9pm. I crawl into bed only to reminded by a loud growl, I hadnt eatten at all day. I tell myself Ill lay down for a min and then get up to get something to eat..........


Tues-I wake up at 600am starving. I eat breakfast,let the dogs out and get dress. My friend calls me and ask me to come in early. So I leave the house at 8am and drive the 7 miles. I get to work at 9am. So much for getting to work early. He leaves me again. And we are slammed (of course). I turn the radio station on to jam while I work. I hear about this High School that has to raise $15,000. to go to a science thing in Indiana. So, the noodle gets to turning and I decide to donate a peice of my work (that isnt finished yet) to the school. 2pm and time to go home........ sister isnt there. She calls 10 mins late and wants to know if I would cover her shift.............I do.

I leave the store and go straight home. I pull up in the yard only to releize my poor potted plants werent watered before I left that morning. So I let the dogs out and water the yard and take pics of roses. Then turn the hose on myself. It was hot! I go in and jump on the computer for a few. I take a hot bath and go to bed......forgetting to eat dinner.

Weds- Alarm set for 830 am but woke up at 600am. I tried to go back to sleep but something was bugging me. I started drifting off to sleep when I releized I hadnt turned off one of the crock pots at work (we serve hot homemade lunches). So I just up and fly to work in my sweat pants and tshirt. Crock pots not on ............................................

I decide to stay. No reason to fight the traffic! I call the radio station about the school. I donate the painting. Once agian, Im at work by myself and we are ,of course, slammed. So I served lunches and waited on customers in my pjs. Sister calls and ask my to cover her shift. I call the boss man and tell him to his butt to the store. I leave and it takes me almost 45 mins to get home. I notice as soon as I open the door to the house, I hadnt taken the dogs out before I left............

I let them out and see I also forgotten to water the poor potted plants. So I water the plants. I see the rose petals on the ground so I dont take pics. I come in and clean the house top to bottom. I jump on the computer and piddle around awhile, sending pics of the painting to the radio dj like he had asked. Do some work on the painting,eat dinner, take a shower and go to bed.


Thurs- Get a call early in the morning that wakes me up. Boss man needs me in there ASAP. But I take my time.I take the dogs out and WATER the potted plants.Play on the computer for a few. I get a phone call from the radio station about the painting pics I had sent him the night before.Talk to him about 15 mins.I get dressed and leave. Get to work to find it full of ppl. Poor boss man is freaked out. Busiest morning he had ever had. I was there about 30 mins when one of the customers asked if we knew why it was so busy. Well, no we dont.... He says that when I called to donate my painting the day before, the DJ had said that since it was such a huge thing I had done, that he had told all the listeners to give us all thier business that day (Weds)...... and here I thought it was cuz I was cute! HA! And this morning he had recorded our phone conversion and played it on the radio. And once again, told the listeners to give us all thier business. And I do beleive a majority of them did and the ones that didnt Weds did today!! I get left alone AGAIN and am so busy! My sister finally gets there at 330pm pm and I tell her that she is covering my Sat shift. Im not working!!! I leave. I get home, let the dogs out, and see that it didnt matter if I watered the potted plants in the morning. I would have to water them again in the evenings. Take pics, jump on here and still piddling.

I got a call a few mins ago. The boss man had done the figures and had said that the 4 months he has been open that just yesterday and today combined, was the most he had made in the four months COMBINED!

Lucky him! But Im too tired to care.
