Still Here

I'm still here. I worked three 8-hour days this weekend, including the 4th of July and Sunday. My butt hurts. Who would have thought I could get paid for just sitting? "Hello?"

 My family had a little gathering on July 4th and I was greeted by several grandchildren upon my arrival home. When darkness descended we set off a few fireworks which they found pretty exciting. Lucas did declare several of them "boring" but then again he did stay to watch.

I was able to be at church Sunday morning. My Darling and I drove separate vehicles for for the first time in years and I went to work from there afterward. It's a whole new schedule to figure out and it's been months since I knew what day of the week it was without stopping to really think about it.

Tomorrow and Wednesday I work a shorter day and should be home by a little after 5 pm instead of a little after 8 pm and then I have four days off. I hope there will still be some nice weather left over. I've been missing the sunshine.

    1. They were 8 hour days, not 5. (Had to fix that.)
      I am hoping I will have a chance to get outside while the nice weather is here.

    3. I hope so. My new friend would rather sleep all afternoon than go outside.

    1. I am still waiting to find the balance in all of this. Work and home can still feel out of sync and I'm glad I didn't have to do the balancing act when I was younger. I don't know how you did it.

    1. Actually, I am. ha ha Sitting is exhausting too, just in a different way. Yesterday I took some yarn and a crochet hook. Maybe I can be productive while sitting.
